Do you or someone you know suffer from pulmonary disease?

                                           Do you or someone you know suffer from pulmonary disease?

Asthma affects over 17 million Americans as well as COPD.
Often, during the warm months children and adults with a lung disease can have flare ups.

Pulmonary diseases cause many symptoms such as blockage of airways, shortness of breath, tightness in chest, wheezing, and a cough to name a few. Many individuals with this disease have resolved maintenance of the illness by using inhalers. However, Chiropractic care has been shown to help improve the condition with regular chiropractic treatments.


Chiropractic treatment involves the realignment of the spine and therefore the nerves. Chiropractic manipulation can eliminate obstruction during nerve impulse conduction to the lungs and airway. When adjusted, your body is restored to its natural state of alignment, nerves can then function as they should, allowing the lungs to function properly.

Chiropractic care can also benefit by fixing musculoskeletal alignment problems in the ribcage and spine. When this is done, the thoracic cavity is free to expland like it should.

There is a study performed by Graham and Pistolese. The study was performed on 81 asthmatic patients before the start of chiropractic care and two months after their care. The results of this study showed improvment in 90.1% of patients 60 days after chiropractic care. The patients also reported nearly 50% reduction of frequency of asthma attacks.

Life style changes like chiropractic care can be an asset in the lung disease treatment process.
