Bronchitis
Bronchitis is a condition where the lining of the bronchial tubes in the lungs becomes inflamed. It can be acute, usually occurring for a few days or weeks after a cold or flu--or chronic, lasting more than 3 months.
Symptoms of bronchitis include:
-
Persistent cough,
-
often with mucus
-
Wheezing
-
Low grade fever and chills
-
Tightness in chest
-
Blocked nose or sinuses
-
Breathlessness
-
Headaches
-
Sore throat
With acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, these symptoms can be alleviated and the inflammation in the lungs reduced for a faster, natural recovery. However the use of medication can cause dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, and stomach cramps; acupuncture patients experience no ill effects from treatment.
Acupuncture for Bronchitis
Acupuncture stimulates blood circulation, helping move blood through the tissues of the lungs and reducing inflammation. This reduced inflammation opens the bronchial tubes to clear mucus more effectively, emptying the excess fluid in the lungs and allowing them to heal.
Chinese Herbal Medicine for Bronchitis
Chinese herbal medicine can also be implemented to clear the lungs. Many Chinese herbs have anti-inflammatory properties to help open the lungs and clear cough. Since every individual experiences symptoms differently, consult with a licensed Chinese herbal medicine practitioner for the best results from a custom herbal prescription.
