Hi, Joan. I tried acupuncture for a few months, before resigning myself to the need for daily inhalers. I always felt that I could breathe better after the treatments, but the effect was short-lived. It may have been the result of relaxing in a quiet, dimly lit room with an air purifier and a salt lamp as much as the acupuncture itself. If you have the time for frequent treatments, acupuncture may be helpful as a supplement to your medical treatments.
