Homeopathy for Asthma

This is also part of a growing trend to more holistic solutions to health problems, with a reduced reliance on conventional medicine. Other natural treatments include aromatherapy, meditation, nutrition and herbal medicine; amongst others.

What is Asthma?

Asthma is a respiratory condition characterised by shortness of breath, coughing and tightness in the chest. These symptoms are the result of a constriction in the bronchial tubes of the lung, which also has the effect of reducing a sufferer’s ability to exhale. In some cases mucous is also produced, which further impairs breathing ability. Conventional medical treatments involve bronchodilators, which work to dilate the passages of the lung or prevent constriction. Factors that may bring on asthma or an asthma attack include:

It is believed that certain families are predisposed to the condition, though children exposed to cigarette smoke in the womb, or as infants, are also more likely to develop the condition.

What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is based on utilising progressively diluted infusions from plant, mineral and animal extracts. These are then produced in a liquid or tablet form with specific remedies presribed for specific ailments or conditions. Their efficacy and potency are derived from this process of dilution which is believed to leave the water or liquid with a memory of the extract. Homeopathy is also based on the principle of the body healing itself, aided by a remedy that mimics the symptom – or like healing like. A homeopath will typically assess all aspects of your lifestyle and health, and prescribe a remedy based on these factors, as well as your range of symptoms. The benefits of homeopathy include:

  • Improved energy levels
  • Individual attention, diagnosis and treatment
