Treating Asthma with Chinese Medicine

Click here to sign up for this webinar Did you know 5.8% of children and 8.4% of adults have asthma in the United States? That is over 25 million people! (https://www.cdc.gov/asthma/most_recent_national_asthma_data.htm) Have you ever heard of “the rule of thirds” or what are the five most common triggers for asthma? How do these triggers help us help our patients? As Chinese medical practitioners, we see a lot of asthma patients, whether it is a reason for coming to us or not. And we can help them! This course will look at the pathology and various signs and symptoms of asthma from both a biomedical and Chinese medical point of view. We will discuss real world approaches to diagnosing and treating this condition and will include a discussion of the major modalities of our medicine including both acupuncture and herbal interventions. Whether you are an expert or a beginner at treating asthma, there will be lots to learn (or relearn) from this course.
