What is Asthma? Asthma is thought to be linked to a combination of things such as environmental factors (dust, smoke) poor diet and emotional stress. And while that is true there is an underlying cause to asthma that makes the lungs malfunction. The brain stem is the main center of the nerve system and it continually controls an d coordinates all function in the body to ALL tissues, organs and cells.

The brainstem also controls respiration (how we breathe). The nerves in the brain stem also control the 
tone of the airways keeping them open so air and pollutants can freely exchange in and out. So, when the nerves short circuit or misfire to the tissues in the ling it causes the lungs and airway to constrict. This constriction decreases the flow and blocks the passages which causes inflammation . The inflammation makes it difficult for the body to effectively produce and deliver oxygen to the cells. Some potential symptoms include difficulty breathing, wheezing, coughing and tightness in the chest.

Some people may not realize the harmful effects a misalignment of the spine can have on our overall 
health and lung health. Even the slightest pressure on the nerves can wreak havoc on your overall health including the function of vital organs. However, there are ways to control the symptoms of asthma and prevent it from becoming a bigger problem. Regular Chiropractic Care and adjustments when necessary can help eliminate spinal misalignments, reduce asthma symptoms, increase nerve flow
and restore the function of your lungs. Chiropractic Care for asthma is a non-invasive option if you’ve 
had unsuccessful routes or looking for an alternative solution to inhalers and taking medications. By addressing the underlying cause, achieving optimum alignment of the spine and communication with the lungs.

About the Author

Dr. Robert F. Gucciardo, DC

Gucciardo Specific Chiropractic and Natural Health Center

Dr. Gucciardo was born and raised in Queens, NY. He attended Archbishop Molloy Highschool where he played baseball and then went to Pace University in Pleasantville, New York to continue playing baseball at the Division 1 level and graduated from The Lubin School of Business with a BBA degree. In early childhood he had watched his brother receive chiropractic care from a local chiropractor because he was diagnosed with scoliosis in his early teen years. While receiving care, his brother also had other health benefits that amazed Dr. Gucciardo. Then one day while playing basketball at age 11, Dr. Gucciardo fell and injured his hip and lower back. He was checked out by the same chiropractor his brother was receiving care from. Some adjustments were made and things improved.
