Acupuncture for Respiratory Health & Immunity

Breathe Easier: Acupuncture for Respiratory & Immune Support

In the vibrant, active community surrounding the Silver Lake Reservoir and Los Feliz, being able to breathe deeply and clearly is essential. Whether you’re hiking Griffith Park or walking the neighborhood hills, seasonal allergies, urban pollutants, and chronic respiratory issues can get in the way.

At Jeiran Lashai Acupuncture, located on Sunset Drive, we use time-tested techniques to strengthen your respiratory system, clear congestion, and balance your body’s immune response.

Conditions We Treat

Acupuncture is a powerful tool for both acute relief and long-term prevention of respiratory distress. We frequently help our patients manage:

  • Seasonal Allergies (Hay Fever): Reducing sneezing, itchy eyes, and runny noses without the drowsiness of antihistamines.

  • Asthma Support: Helping to relax the bronchial tubes and reduce the frequency of flare-ups.

  • Sinusitis & Congestion: Promoting drainage and reducing inflammation in the sinus cavities.

  • Chronic Cough: Soothing the throat and lungs to ease persistent, dry, or productive coughs.

  • Immune Recovery: Strengthening your body's defensive energy to help prevent frequent colds and flu.

How Acupuncture Supports the Lungs

Modern science explains the benefits of respiratory acupuncture through:

  • Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Acupuncture helps down-regulate the inflammatory markers that cause swelling in the airways and sinuses.

  • Modulating the Immune System: It helps "re-train" the immune system to stop overreacting to harmless triggers like pollen or dust.

  • Relaxing Smooth Muscles: By calming the nervous system, acupuncture helps relax the muscles around the airways, making it easier to take full, deep breaths.

Respiratory Health FAQs

  • Yes. We have seen great success in helping patients recover from persistent coughs by focusing on nourishing the lung tissue and clearing residual inflammation from the body.

  • By stimulating points around the nose and forehead, we increase local circulation to help the sinuses drain naturally, which relieves the pressure causing the headache.
