How can yoga benefit asthma?


How can yoga benefit asthma?

Answer by Miz Lamb
The yoga movements are dependent on breath control. Breath control helps asthma patients to breathe better and easier. I have been doing the deep breathing and controlled breathing for many years and it is much easier now to deal with the chronic bronchitis than it would have been without the Yoga.

P.K. Vedanthan, an allergist and associate professor of medicine at the University of Colorado in Denver, studied 17 adults with asthma. Half the group practiced a yoga regimen that included breath slowing exercises and meditation. Although lung function tests were about the same for both groups, the yoga group was less likely to need inhalers and scored higher on quality of life questionnaires.

Marianne Wamboldt, associate director of pediatrics at National Jewish Medical Research Center, one of the country's leading allergy and asthma hospitals, is a longtime yoga practitioner who is seeking NIH funding for her own yoga/asthma study. "I don't think yoga can cure asthma, but I think it's a good adjunctive therapy that helps," she says.
