Asthma-related concerns
For people living with asthma, Ayurvedic support is discussed alongside their prescribed inhalers and medical care, which should continue.
About this area
An overview
Seasonal sneezing, a nose that blocks up every winter, sinus heaviness or a tendency to wheeze can follow a person for years. Changes of season, dust, pollen and smoky winter air are familiar triggers for many families in Punjab.
This page explains how respiratory and allergy-related concerns are approached at our clinics. Ayurvedic care here is supportive and individual, and it never replaces inhalers, emergency treatment or a chest specialist’s advice.
The Ayurvedic view
In Ayurveda, many congestion and mucus-related complaints are associated with Kapha, described as heavy, cool and moist. Care may therefore pay attention to seasonal routine, food choices, warmth and daily habits, adapted to each person.

Questions
Frequently asked
Should I keep using my inhaler?
Yes. Never stop or reduce an inhaler or any other prescribed medicine on your own. Ayurvedic support is discussed alongside your medical treatment, not instead of it.
Is it useful to consult before the season changes?
If your symptoms follow the seasons, discussing the pattern early means routine and diet advice can be planned ahead. Dr. Varun will advise what suits you.
Can I consult online for allergies or sinus concerns?
Yes. Video and audio consultations are available. Some concerns may need an in-person visit, and you will be told if so.
Can I continue my current medicines?
Please do not stop or change any prescribed medicine on your own. Share everything you take at the consultation, and discuss any change with the doctor who prescribed it.
