Respiratory problems

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a long history of treating respiratory problems, and its treatments are often used in conjunction with Western medical treatments to help manage symptoms and promote healing. TCM practitioners view respiratory problems as an indication of imbalances within the body, and aim to restore balance and harmony to promote healing. Some common respiratory problems that TCM can address include: Asthma: TCM can be used to help manage asthma symptoms, such as shortness of breath, wheezing, and coughing. TCM treatments aim to reduce inflammation, improve lung function, and promote relaxation. Bronchitis: TCM can be used to treat acute and chronic bronchitis, helping to reduce inflammation, relieve coughing, and promote healing of the respiratory system. Allergies: TCM can be used to help manage allergy symptoms, such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes.
