| Herbal Therapies:
Natural plant substances used to maintain and improve health. Herbs have been used as medications in all cultures, for thousands of years. Many popular pharmaceutical drugs have botanical origins. |
| Holistic Therapy: A descriptive term for a healing philosophy that views a patient as a whole person, not just a disease or a collection of symptoms. In the course of treatment, holistic medical practitioners may address a client's emotional and spiritual dimensions as well as the nutritional, environmental, and lifestyle factors that may contribute to an illness. Many holistic medical practitioners combine conventional forms of treatment with natural or alternative treatments. |

Homeopathic
Remedies: Homeopathy comes from the Greek words "homeo" meaning similar and "pathos" meaning disease or suffering; hence, the reason for calling homeopathy the "law of similars" (see below). Homeopathic medicines are prepared from natural substances, i.e. plant, mineral and animal. Because homeopathic medicines are highly diluted substances, absence of toxicity is assured. Homeopathy is used all over the world, especially in Europe where Dr. Samuel Hahnemann founded it as a science. The manufacture and sale of homeopathic medicines are regulated by the FDA. Homeopathic medicines were recognized as official drugs by a Congressional act in 1938.

What is Asthma?
One in 10 children and one in three adults suffer from chronic asthma.
An acute asthma attack is caused by inflammation in the airways of the lungs, causing contraction and narrowing of the airways (bronchioles), restricting airflow and making breathing very difficult.
Chronic asthma is a lung condition characterized by frequent asthma attacks and requiring medical management to prevent and minimize acute attacks.
This can take the form of conventional Western medicine, homeopathic or naturopathic treatment. While many asthma attacks are relatively mild and can be treated and controlled at home, some are more severe and may even require hospitalization.
Symptoms of
Asthma
Tightness in the chest
Characteristic 'wheezing' sound, especially when exhaling
Shortness of breath
Persistent cough, especially at night
May have increased pulse, anxiety or fear
What causes asthma?
Asthma is strongly associated with pollution. The incidence of asthma has risen sharply in the last 30 years along with a rise in industrialization and higher levels of environmental pollution.
Other possible causes of asthma in vulnerable individuals include allergic reactions to dietary substances like wheat, dairy products, chocolate, nuts, preservatives and other chemical food and beverage additives.
Asthma attacks may also be brought on by pollen, house dust mites, tobacco smoke, feathers and other allergens. Even a temperature change, or the cold morning air, can cause broncho spasm and increase the likelihood of an attack.
In some individuals, anxiety can precipitate an asthma attack and stress and are therefore a contributory factor.
There is a strong hereditary link and asthma can often be seen to 'run in families'.
Naturopaths and homeopaths recognize that immune system functioning can play a vital role in helping to control the symptoms of asthma and strengthen the body's defenses against environmental allergens.
How is Asthma
Usually Treated?
Conventional Western medicine deals with asthma treatment via a combination of inhalers, anti-inflammatory medication, bronchodilators and even steroids.
While conventional medical treatment may sometimes be necessary, there are some definite limitations, including side effects, as well as negative effects on immune system functioning - thereby leading to more asthma attacks and reduced resistance to allergens.
While conventional medicine can sometimes control asthma, this is often a temporary measure only.
Note: You should not stop your asthma medication without first consulting your doctor, a trained naturopath or homeopath for guidance.
How Can
Herbal and Homeopathic Remedies
Help?
Herbal and homeopathic asthma treatment can be extremely effective. Depending on the severity of the asthma, they can reduce or eliminate the need for the synthetic drugs and inhalers and can also be safely used to complement conventional treatment of asthma.
Used as part of a wider, holistic lifestyle management, herbal and homeopathic medicines can bring significant relief to sufferers of asthma - without the side effects or other complications of the conventional drugs.

when defense mechanisms are impaired due to some external
factor such as cigarette smoke or exposure to irritants
in the air (such as heavy smog).

include:
--A noticeable cough --Coughing up mucous in the morning
--Noises such as wheezing may be heard while breathing
--An increase in the size of your rib cage
--A bluish color in the fingernails and lips
These symptoms are a result of what can be or what
will become a form of respiratory infection.
Double-blind placebo controlled studies have shown that
the ingredients in

have the ability to metabolize and detoxify histamines.
In addition to histamines, respiratory infections have
been linked to various mineral and vitamin deficiencies
