Natural Asthma Treatment

In 90% of children and 50% of adults, the condition is classified as allergic asthma.

Asthma is one of the three allergic conditions of ‘The Atopic Triad’, and often occurs alongside symptoms of hay fever and eczema.

If you struggle with asthma, or another allergic condition, you likely have above average levels of IgE, which can make you more susceptible to developing reactions. This is known as ‘atopy’.

Asthma is a multi-factorial condition, which is characterised by flare ups in symptoms in response to your individual triggers.

Common airborne triggers include:
– dust & dust mites
– mould
– animal dander
– pollen (especially during spring time)
– grass
– cockroaches

Common food triggers include:
– dairy
– salicylates (a natural chemical in many fruits & vegetables)
– histamine
– food preservatives
– glutamates (e.g. MSG)
– gluten

Common chemical triggers include:
– chlorine
– perfumes/fragrances
– cleaning products (e.g. bleach)

The prevalence of allergic conditions have increased dramatically in recent years, due to the impacts our modern lifestyles have on our bodies and our immune system.

To learn more about the different factors driving the prevalence of allergic conditions like allergy asthma, check our some of our recent blog posts and podcast episodes with PAT Expert Naturopath Jenny.

In our clinics we see lots of children and adults struggling with asthma symptoms in our clinics, who are frustrated by the lack of medical treatment options.

Many reach out to us as they are sick of going through endless prescriptions for medications and following elimination diets which simply aren’t sustainable long-term.

With Positive Association Technique (PAT) we’re able to offer a natural asthma treatment option, as part of a holistic approach to help reduce the frequency and severity of asthma symptoms and flare-ups.

Positive Association Technique (PAT) is a natural allergy treatment performed by qualified Naturopaths to help alleviate the symptoms associated with allergies, sensitivities and intolerances.

We use a form of muscle testing (kinesiology) to assess your reactions to various food, airborne and chemical substances to help pinpoint your individual triggers.

We then use a chiropractic tool, called an Acustim, to gently stimulate acupressure points and nerve bundles down either side of your spine, while you’re holding a sample vial of the substance (e.g. dust mites).

This helps to re-train your body to no longer react negatively to the substance and relieve the associated symptoms.

You can learn more about PAT in our podcast episode – “What is Positive Association Technique (PAT)?”

We work with highly qualified Naturopaths who provide PAT from various clinic locations all over Australia and in Auckland, NZ.
