Novato, CA. Did you know that according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), approximately 20 million Americans suffer from asthma and many of these people do not even realize that they have the condition? Asthma is a condition that can be controlled through medications, but if you do not want to spend your life using inhalers and taking pills, you may want to try an alternative route and go to see a chiropractor. Here is the conclusion of a peer reviewed study published in 2001: After 3 months of combining chiropractic SMT with optimal medical management for pediatric asthma, the children rated their quality of life substantially higher and their asthma severity substantially lower. These improvements were maintained at the 1-year follow-up assessment. There were no important changes in lung function or hyperresponsiveness at any time. The observed improvements are unlikely as a result of the specific effects of chiropractic SMT alone, but other aspects of the clinical encounter that should not be dismissed readily. Further research is needed to assess which components of the chiropractic encounter are responsible for important improvements in patient-oriented outcomes so that they may be incorporated into the care of all patients with asthma. J Manipulative Physiol Ther. 2001 Jul-Aug;24(6):369-77. Chronic pediatric asthma and chiropractic spinal manipulation: a prospective clinical series and randomized clinical pilot study. Hello. I and the clinic director of a chiropractic practice in Novato, California, and I can help you manage your asthma and the symptoms that go with it. Often, many conditions, including asthma, are affected by a misalignment in the spine, which can pinch nerves and keep them from doing their jobs properly. Through a course of chiropractic treatment at my office in 7595 Redwood Blvd. Suite 108, 94945, I can correct this misalignment, which can improve asthma symptoms. One of the ways that I can correct the misalignment is through a spinal adjustment. Studies have shown that this sort of treatment is effective in improving asthma symptoms, and I have successfully treated many asthma patients in Novato, who found that traditional treatments just weren’t cutting it for them. Along with my treatments, you can also do things to help yourself, including changing bed linens at least once a week, not having pets in the home (or, if you really love your pets, at least keep them outside as much as possible), dusting regularly and installing an air filter in your home. So, if you are suffering from the symptoms of asthma and want to discover a treatment that works, come and see me, Dr. DeSalvo.
