Asthma and allergies in Ayurveda result from a hypersensitive immune system and vitiated Kapha dosha, leading to congestion and constriction in the respiratory channels (Prana Vaha Srotas).
Treatment focuses on:
-
Clearing Kapha: Using expectorant herbs like Vasaka and Licorice to clear mucus.
-
Strengthening Lungs: Rejuvenating herbs and diets are used to strengthen lung tissue.
-
Desensitizing the Body: Procedures like Nasya (nasal administration of oils) help clear allergens and calm the nervous system.
“The goal is to reduce the frequency and severity of attacks, strengthen your respiratory immunity, and help you breathe easily without fear.”
