Allergic asthma is the result of the allergic reaction taking place in the bronchial mucosal lining rather thatn in the nasal lining.  The common inciting factors are pollens, hair from pets (especially cats), house dust, molds, and certain foods (especially shellfish).  When foods ae responsible, the raction initially occurs within the bloodstream, but the major effect is felt within the lung, which is spoken of as the target organ.  Dr. Nelson has found bone misalignment in the spinal column to be one of the major causes and has quite good success in treating bone misalignment and allergies.

Most allergic asthma is seen in children.  For unclear reasons it usually disappears spontaneously at puberty.  In those who contirnue to have difficulty after puberty, the role of infection as a cause for the asthma usually becomes more prominent.  Allergic asthma attacks start abruptly and can usually be aborted rather easily with medication.

People with asthma are symptom-free much of the time.  When exposed to their particular triggers they begin wheezing and producing sputum.  Wheezing refers to the high-pitched squeaking sound that is made by people exhaling through narrowed bronchi.  Associated with the wheezing and sputum is a distinct sensation of shortness of breath that varies in severity according to the nature of the attack.  Milder attacks of asthma often subside spontaneously, merely with relaxation.  This is expeciall true when the wheezing is induced by non-specific factors, such as a cloud of dust, cold air, or exercise.  Asthmatic individuals have more sensiteive air passages and they ar nore easily bother by these non-specific irritants.

Testimonials

November 1998

After visiting several orthopedic specialists, and medical doctors for symptoms of achy and swollen joints, fatigue, and immune system problems, out of pure desperation we contacted Dr. Nelson in August of this year.  Each of our six children, as well as myself, all seemed to have struggled with the same symptoms of aches and fatigue.  In addition to the symptoms of Fibromyalgia , we also have a son with Asthma and two children with Insulin Dependent Diabetes.  As we talked to Dr. Nelson and did some research we felt strongly that this was something we needed to do.

From the very first day of treatment with Dr. Nelson we had improved health.  The most noticeable difference was the amount of energy we immediately felt along with the aches and pains disappearing.  Our 18-month-old baby had an entirely different disposition after being treated by Dr. Nelson for just seconds.  It truly was amazing to see him so happy all of the time.  Our 13 year old daughter was able to run for the first time in 4 years without severe pain.  We had taken her to specialists who had diagnosed her with arthritis and had her on anti-inflammatory medication for years.  Our son with asthma has not had any asthmatic symptoms since our visit.  Something that we have watched with excitement, is the improvement of our two diabetic children.  We have been able to decrease the amount of insulin they are taking and continue to see improvement each day.  The chromium that our son is taking for his diabetes has also made a great deal of difference in regulating his blood sugar and preventing any hypoglycemic symptoms as well.  An added benefit came to my husband who has had allergies most of his life.  He has been unable to eat fruits with citric acid without severe swelling in his throat.  He is also allergic to dogs and cats., It has been a pleasant surprise for him to be exposed to any and all of these things without any type of reaction.

We are grateful for the improved health and hopeful that it will continue.
