Immediate Natural Relief for Asthma

One out of every 15 students will suffer from asthma. It has an effect on physical activity, sports involvement, school, friends, and every aspect of their life. Many individuals seek out quick and natural treament for their asthma attacks instead of loading up their bodies with chemicals. However, asthma treatment
through natural remedies depends upon the trigger that started the attack.

There are a number of ways that an asthma attack can be triggered. Among the many triggers are mold, pets, chemicals, smoke, perfume, cleaning agents, food allergies, emotional stress, environmental allergens, changes in barometric pressure, cold temperatures, and pests like rats and cockroaches.

Most of the solutions to asthmatic attacks include medications, steroids and long term medical treatments. An immediate way to naturally treat your asthma is to avoid common triggers such as stress, pollutants, chemicals and pets. Unavoidable triggers include cold weather, animal and pest droppings, and changes in the barometric pressure.

Natural remedies, including stress reducers, can be used to manage other triggers like emotional stress. Other people turn to herbs and organic foods that have potential positive effects on the prevention of an attack.

Another way of obtaining natural relief from asthma symptoms is to build up your immune system and reduce the constrictions of the air sacs found in the lungs. Aerosolized hydrogen peroxide used in a humidifier improves the availability of oxygen that can be metabolized by the asthma patient.

Adding hydrogen peroxide to the humidifier has been shown to have a positive effect on increasing the amount of oxygen that is able to be used. Adding the hydrogen peroxide will vaporize the product but will also bleach out the wall and curtains near the vaporizer. With careful use, and if your doctor permits it, hydrogen peroxide can be added to the equipment that delivers your bronchodilator.

This method works to eliminate attacks and helps to enhance your immune system, but it doesn't get to the root causes of the disease. There are many other ways to manage emotional stress to provide quick natural relief of a stress related attack. One method is the use of Reiki or a Japanese technique used for stress reduction and relaxation that promotes healing.

Reiki is based on the idea of an unseen life force of energy that supposedly flows through us and what causes life. If the life flow is low then we are supposedly more likely at that time to get sick and feel stress. If the Reiki is high we are more capable, happy and healthy. Reiki is a wonderful therapy that quickly and naturally relieves asthma symptoms, and also benefits your spirit, mind, body and emotions.

Natural relief for asthma symptoms such as stress reduction and other preventative practices will go a long way to reducing your dependence on medications.
