Abstract:

Asthma is a serious condition that is becoming more and more prevalent in our society. It has increasingly been the object of a wide variety of medical treatments. There so are many precipitating causes that the search for any particular patient's reason for having asthma should not be limited to the respiratory system. Similarly, phannacological manipulation is not al ways the treatment of choice. With a wide enough perspective on manipulation, it is possible to find the cause of some patient's asthma and treat it effectively at a relatively low cost.
