Asthma Sufferers- We have natural treatments available that can help you!
_________________________________________________
Did you know that there are natural treatments that can help to improve your breathing so that you don’t feel like you have an elephant sitting on your chest?
The treatments and solutions have been around for a long time! Unfortunately, your typical asthma doctor cannot offer these natural treatments.
1) Chiropractic Alignments of the Ribs: If your ribs are misaligned, it will affect their ability to move up and down as you inhale and exhale. You have 12 pairs of ribs, all of which attach to the spine. All of these can misalign from the spine. Seven of the twelve pairs of ribs can also misalign from the sternum! This is kind of like a four-way tug of war in your chest where each side is pulling in their own direction! A chiropractic alignment will assist an individual with asthma mechanically and energetically to improve and restore normal breathing from its previous state of compensation and restriction.
2) Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Treatments (NAET): This treatment helps patients suffering from environmental allergies that can cause asthma. This is a treatment in which an individual will get muscle-tested using applied kinesiology in order to find out what things the body is allergic to (physical, chemically, or emotionally). Once the environmental allergen is discovered-flowers, leaves, weeds, pet hair, pollen, etc.-the doctor can perform a treatment that reprograms the body to not have an allergic response to the allergen/stimulus.
3) Spinal Traction/Reshaping: Spinal traction is can be used to treat any individual with asthma and breathing problems. The joints in our neck and spine can become misaligned, which results in deformed ligaments, damaged nerve tissue, and distorted posture. This in turn causes multiple organ and muscle dysfunctions, such as asthma. A familiar example of this is when you see an individual (from the side) with their head and ears far forward in front of their shoulders, with their shoulders rounded and slouched forward. This is not normal and healthy posture. This distorted posture is called Upper Cross Syndrome. Upper Cross Syndrome restricts the rib cage and doesn’t allow it to lift and expand as we breathe. It also restricts the diaphragm and prevents it from naturally moving up and down as we breathe. Because of this, the lungs do not have adequate space to expand and fill with oxygen. This also results in restricted blood flow to the lungs that helps to circulate oxygen around our bodies, which means that oxygen is not getting to our muscles, organs, and nerves that manage all of the cells in our body! Spinal traction uses multiple machines to reshape the structure of the neck and spine, allowing injured ligaments and joints, to optimally heal and stabilize. This in turn optimizes the functioning of our organs and muscles!
Look into spinal traction if other types of asthma treatments have not helped you!

Do you have tingling, numbness, or weakness in your arms or legs? This is called Neuropathy- read about it here in Dr. Rocco's latest blog! ..................................................................................................
Peripheral Neuropathy
This is a common condition/injury that will affect the arms, hands, legs, and feet. An individual can even have neuropathy affect their neck, face and head. Neuropathy, by the medical definition is considered nerve disease, or a state in which the nerves are dying. Nerve death is not always the case, as this condition can be either acute and sudden or chronic. For example, if you sit on something hard incorrectly, your leg may go numb and you may feel tingling. That doesn’t mean your nerve is dying. In the case of peripheral neuropathy, nerves are being affected by one or more types of stressors.
Chemical stress includes toxicity from metals, synthetic chemicals, additives, preservatives, and sometimes even medications such as chemotherapy and other cancer medications. A second stress type is physical. This includes traumas, trips and falls, car accidents, sprained joints, work positions that may compress joints and nerves for long periods of time, and even sleeping funny. A third type of stress is emotional stress. Anger, fear, anxiety, etc., is commonly acquired from work, school, and family events, and can produce energy that directly changes our structure, affecting nerves and their functioning.
When an individual has peripheral neuropathy, if they are ignoring it will not make it go away. If they try to sleep it off, massage it away, take pain killers for it, apply lotions and potions to it, etc., it will persist.
So, what really happens when you are experiencing peripheral neuropathy? First, the blood supply going to the nerves is altered, which directly affects their functioning. This in turn affects the functioning of their organs and muscles, such as your arms or your skin. Second, the nerve will commonly become compressed, affecting the energy supply and communication from the brain to the organs and muscles. Third, the nerve tissues are not receiving adequate oxygen that they need to perform normal processes. This causes damage, as all of the cells in our body require oxygen. This is as if someone was holding their breath for days-how can they expect any of their organs to function properly?
There are simple treatments for this condition/injury that can reverse and stop it. Chiropractic care is simple and will align joints, taking compression off of the nerve tissue and allowing oxygen, blood, and energy to get to the nerve tissue and the surrounding organs and muscles. Additional treatments that can be done are vitamin and nutrient intravenous therapy to heal nerve tissue that my have become toxic from medications or chemicals. Another type of treatment is spinal traction, which decompresses the compressed joints and nerves.
Don’t be comfortable with suffering and discomfort. Every day without treatment only worsens this condition. Take the first step and change your life and health! Call our office at (719) 594-0071 to set up a consultation or an appointment.
