1. since both the said pathology are related with 'inflammation', in one there is inflammation of bronchi and other is reaction to injury thus Acupuncture can be used to treat both systemic inflammation [asthma, edema, sinusitis,] to local joint based inflammation [tendonitis].
PS. Several studies reveal that both manual and electro-acupuncture have a dramatic effect on white blood cells and their associated cytokines which help control inflammation. Acupuncture therapy has been shown to increase endorphins [feel good hormone]and
2. Asthma is a psycho-somatic [mind-body disease] disorder, thus calming of mind is very important: thus Medhya Drugs [brahmi vati and sarpagandha ghan vati] to be taken at bed time.
. Deep breathing exercises.They help increase lung capacity and also create awareness of the lungs and breathing process.
. mix powdered salt and karpoor in warm ghee and massage between the shoulder blades
