It can range from mild to severe, and symptoms vary greatly from person to person.<\/p>\n<p>The main symptoms of asthma are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shortness of breath<\/li>\n<li>Tightness in the chest<\/li>\n<li>Coughing<\/li>\n<li>Wheezing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Unfortunately, the cause of asthma is not known, and there is no cure for this disease. Asthma attacks can be caused by a number of triggers including exercise, pets and other allergens, pollution, and cold air.<\/p>\n<p>Acupuncture can help those who suffer from asthma by strengthening the immune system and lungs, and aiding in the relief of asthma symptoms. Initially, acupuncture treatments will take place over several months until the body is strengthened, with periodic treatments needed thereafter to maintain the benefits that have been reached.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acupuncture for Allergies Seasonal allergies give rise to a number of uncomfortable and irritating symptoms including: runny nose itchy eyes sneezing congestion Acupuncture can address and improve these symptoms.\u00a0 Acupuncture is also used to strengthen the immune system to further support the body when allergies begin.\u00a0 It is most effective when you come in about [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"aside","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-166","post","type-post","status-publish","format-aside","hentry","category-uncategorized","post_format-post-format-aside"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/166","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=166"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/166\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":371,"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/166\/revisions\/371"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=166"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=166"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elmiraolsonacupuncture.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=166"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
