Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition that affects millions of people worldwide. Characterized by recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness and coughing, asthma can significantly impact an individual's quality of life. While conventional medical treatments for asthma are well-established and effective, complementary medicine offers a holistic approach to managing this condition. Complementary medicine encompasses a wide range of therapies and practices that can be used alongside conventional treatments to improve asthma control, reduce symptoms and enhance overall well-being. This article explores the role of complementary medicine in asthma management, highlighting various modalities, their potential benefits.
