People suffer daily with asthma, bronchitis and other breathing restrictions on a daily basis.  They turn to medications and inhalers that at best give temporary relief but don’t address the underlying cause of the condition.  Everything in your body is controlled by the nervous system and that includes your lungs.  If there is pressure on the nerves that regulate breathing, the lungs can NOT function at 100%.  This goes for all functions and health of the body as everything is controlled by the nervous system.

Following is a video of one of our patients who was born with an asthmatic condition until he was 2 years old at which point the medical doctors told his parents he would be in and out of the hospitals for this condition.  Fortunately his parents were seeing a chiropractor who explained to them how chiropractic can help.  Watch the rest of his story as he reviews how chiropractic has helped him since his childhood asthma, when he gets back pain, and that his entire family is under chiropractic care to maintain health and wellness:

Results like this are seen by patients who go for chiropractic care.  My name is Dr. Russell Brokstein, owner and chiropractor at Hometown Family Wellness Center in Freehold, NJ.  I had a similar experience in that I played competitive soccer and during high school I would have severe coughing attacks.  The doctors my parents brought me to said it was a bronchial condition and they would just try different inhalers til one worked.  Not one gave me any relief of these attacks and when I went to college, the attacks got worse and to the point that I had bronchitis every 6 to 8 weeks for my 4 years there.  Upon deciding to go to chiropractic college as I wanted to help patients be healthy without drugs and surgery, I received my first chiropractic adjustment in 1994.  Since then not only have I not had any bronchial attacks, but from getting chronic colds as a child and teenager, I rarely if ever have a cold.  My immune system is stronger and therefore my body fights more efficiently.
