Acupuncture for Respiratory System

Choosing acupuncture as part of your wellness routine is a smart move. With the careful placement of needles, an acupuncturist helps alleviate tension, reduce stress, restore balance, improve circulation, and support long-term health.

Treatments

Asthma

The wheeze of asthma is caused by the contraction of the small breathing tubes in the lung. Because the air tube is narrowed, the air flow is ’turbulent‘ and causes a wheeze or whistle when the asthmatic breathes. Because the tubes in the lung are narrowed, air flow is restricted and oxygen supply to the body is decreased. Some causes of the muscular contraction of the breathing tubes include inhaled dust or pollen and some foods.

According to some Western research data, acupuncture causes the contracted muscular walls to dilate although the exact mechanism that facilitates this remains unknown. A recent Chinese medical trial claims that 70% of asthmatic patients obtained beneficial effects from acupuncture and moxibustion (approximately ten treatments) annually. The acupuncture treatment was reported to have decreased the frequency and intensity of asthmatic attacks over a one year period.

Bronchitis

Bronchitis is a common lung disease that involves the irreparable destruction of lung tissue. It is exacerbated by cigarette smoke, industrial pollutants, and dust. An asthmatic element in bronchitis can be observed in the contraction of the muscular walls of the breathing tubes caused by irritants such as smoke and dust.

While acupuncture cannot rebuild lung tissue, it can promote the efficient function of the remaining lung tissue by opening up breathing tubes. The mechanism of acupuncture in bronchitis is similar to that of asthma as it allows more air to enter the lungs. Recent Chinese research suggests that approximately 50% of bronchitics ’benefit‘ from acupuncture. In order to obtain maximum effectiveness, the treatment must be repeated on a regular basis.

This clinic is incredible. The care provided by the acupuncture specialist was by far the greatest I have ever encountered. I was able to schedule an appointment online. I went in with a pain level of 10 in my shoulder and left with a pain level of 5. I really suggest it.

This acupuncture clinic saved my life. I had Cervical issues that caused a lot of pain, on top of mental anxiety that caused a lot of muscular ache. After a few acupuncture treatments left me feeling emotionally and physically relaxed. I strongly advise anyone with a condition to get the finest care possible.

This oakville acupuncture clinic stands out for their outstanding patient and health care services. Every time I visit, I feel as if I am their only patient; they treat me with genuine affection and take the time necessary to thoroughly examine my symptoms in order to provide the most accurate diagnosis. I came in with shoulder pain that had become incapacitating and that no other practitioners had been able to relieve (I had seen a few). I highly recommend this Center, which is staffed by knowledgeable practitioners. Everything is very intuitive.

Acupuncture has been a part of my life for years, but due to the pandemic, I haven't received them on regular basis. This acupuncture clinic was recommended by my previous acupuncturist, who moved. It was definitely the right choice for me. Using acupuncture to treat chronic headaches has proven to be the best long-term solution for me. The treatment I received was painless even though some areas can be a bit uncomfortable (especially those that need the most attention). Following my two first acupuncture visits, I look forward to returning for follow-up visits (a few visits usually keep things in order and keep my headaches and pains at bay). Overall, my experience at Oakville Acupuncture Clinic has been very positive.
