Inspirational Remedies:
The Homeopathic Treatment of Asthma

Overview

An estimated 300 million people worldwide suffer from asthma, with 250,000 annual deaths attributable to the disease. By 2025, that number is projected to reach 400,000. The World Health Organization considers all of these deaths to be avoidable. Asthma is correlated with allergies, influenza, obesity, and noxious workplace conditions. It is the leading chronic disease in children, accounting for more missed school days than any other illness. In the United States alone, it precipitates nearly 2 million emergency room hospital visits per year, and its annual cost is tabulated to be in excess of $56 billion. Famous sufferers have included John F. Kennedy, Elizabeth Taylor, and Beethoven.

In asthma, bronchial narrowing results in coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and a sense of tightness in the chest. Traditional treatments, such as bronchodilator and steroidal inhalers, reasonably control the condition, but cure is elusive. Side effects and long-term use can eventually be quite damaging, including impairment of immune function and growth rate in children. Homeopathy has an excellent track record in treating this debilitating illness, and offers the hope of weaning off of traditional injurious treatments, replacing them with a far gentler and deeper-acting solution.

Did you know that asthma also responds well to proper nutrition? Studies demonstrate that diets low in vegetables and fruits increase the risk and severity of asthma. As well, the anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, and expectorant properties of raw honey make it a wonderful prophylactic food. Fresh ginger can break up accumulated lung mucus, and omega-3-rich fish and fish oils reduce inflammation and improve allergies. These and many more dietary suggestions will be extensively covered.

Join talented instructor Kim Elia, whose well-established expertise in nutrition and homeopathy will take your homeopathic prescribing skills from wheeze to breeze. In this highly-relevant four-week course, he will encompass both the acute and chronic expressions of asthma, amply illustrating the plethora of covered remedies through case histories with long-term followup.

Anyone who has ever taken a course with Kim Elia knows of his exuberant teaching style and complete mastery of each and every topic that he tackles. All practitioners will benefit from Kim’s ability to help you to breathe easier by making more “inspirational” remedy choices for your asthma patients!
