About Allergies: Yoga for the Treatment of Asthma

If you can't see this email, click here

Allergies Allergies Symptoms / Diagnosis Treatment Coping From Daniel More, MD, your Guide to Allergies Yoga has been performed in India for thousands of years, and is a way of uniting the mind, body and spirit through physical activity, breathing exercises and meditation. People with asthma have used yoga for many years, and while many people – and some studies – claim that yoga is helpful for the treatment of asthma, the data on its usefulness is actually quite limited.   Is Yoga an Effective Treatment for Asthma? A group of researchers from Germany and the United Kingdom published a meta-analysis study in 2014 to determine if yoga is beneficial for the treatment of asthma. The meta-analysis included a total of 14 studies that included over 800 people with asthma. The studies sought to determine the effects of various sessions of yoga, over weeks to months, on asthma symptoms, lung function, and the need for asthma medications.

This increased use of CAM seems to be based on distrust of conventional and scientific-based medicine, bad experiences with physicians, and/or belief that CAM is safe, natural and without side effects.
