Asthma
Asthma causes difficulty breathing, which usually means wheezing but may include coughing, shortness of
breath, and chest tightness. Asthma involves the marrowing of the small airways in the lungs. During asthma
attacks, the muscles around the bronchioles tighten, restricting the flow of air and making breathing difficult.
HealthPoint can offer a successful approach to asthma and although many people
have successfully replaced all drugs with electro-acupuncture it should not be taken as a complete substitute for
drugs until definite progress is being made, and then only after consultation with your physician.
Bronchitis
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the major airways (bronchi). The inflammation is typically caused by a virus
and aggravated by cigarette smoke, dusts, chemical vapors, and air pollution.
Occasionally bacteria cause this condition.
Cough
A cough can be a symptom of an emormous number of illnesses. Coughing is the respiratory tract's reflex
response to irritation.
If there is no serious cause then treatment using HealthPoint
is a good method of control.
Croup - Laryngeal Tracheaitis
Croup is characterised by severe laryngeal spasm, causing great difficulty in breathing. It is often due to a
virus, and can be greatly helped by humidifying the atmosphere.
