Excerpts from [email protected] on behalf of Robert Chatburn
So many people die of asthma each year in the US that the government funds a National Asthma Education Program. .. I have been interested in [natural remedies], but there is not much out there beyond the usual recommendations in herbal textbooks. I did find one obscure reference by a medical doctor who observed that severe asthmatics seem to have tender spots (accupressure points?) just under the scapulas on the back. He had some evidence that stimulating these points could cure asthma, not just the attack. Sounds pretty far fetched. But my girlfriend has asthma, tender spots as he said, and massaging them seems to help.
