Respiratory disorders are a group of medical conditions that affect the lungs and other parts of the respiratory system, impairing breathing and oxygen supply to the body. These disorders can range from mild to severe and may be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-lasting).
Ayurvedic medicine plays a significant role in the treatment and management of respiratory diseases. According to Ayurveda, respiratory issues often arise due to an imbalance of the Kapha and Vata doshas, leading to the accumulation of mucus, constriction of airways, and breathing difficulties. Ayurvedic remedies aim to restore balance through holistic treatment approaches that combine natural herbs, dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and detoxification techniques.
Air Pollution: Exposure to pollutants such as particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds can irritate the respiratory system and lead to diseases like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Allergens: Pollen, dust mites, mold, pet dander, and other allergens can trigger respiratory conditions, particularly in individuals with allergies or asthma.
Infections: Viral and bacterial infections, such as influenza, pneumonia, and bronchitis, can lead to acute respiratory disorders and may trigger chronic conditions in susceptible individuals.
Stress: Chronic stress can exacerbate respiratory issues and trigger conditions like asthma, as stress may lead to increased inflammation and hyper-reactivity of the airways.
Poor Nutrition: A diet low in essential nutrients can weaken the immune system and increase vulnerability to infections and respiratory diseases.
Therapeutic vomiting can help eliminate excess mucus and toxins from the body, beneficial for respiratory issues.
This involves administering herbal oils or powders through the nostrils to clear nasal passages and improve breathing.
