Importance of Yoga in Respiratory Diseases

What are Respiratory Diseases?

It’s a disease in which the lungs and other components of the respiratory system are affected. Infection, cigarette smoking, secondhand tobacco smoke, radon, asbestos, and other forms of air pollution can all cause respiratory disorders. Asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, pneumonia, and lung cancer are all respiratory disorders.

How to Diagnose Respiratory Diseases

The most prevalent respiratory disorders are asthma, pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), tuberculosis (TB), bronchitis, and lung cancer. Shortness of breath, a chronic nagging cough, chest pain, and blood in your sputum, often known as hemoptysis, are all very frequent respiratory disease symptoms.

Yoga and Respiratory Diseases

The most effective technique to improve your breathing capacity and prowess is to practice pranayama and other yoga activities on a regular basis. These holistic practices include a variety of techniques or asanas to raise lung capacity and the capacity of the complete breathing system, minimizing the risk of respiratory disorders and/or lessening their impact, if they do exist.

How can Yoga help?

Pranayama techniques such as Kapalbhati, Nadisuddi, Bramhari, Bhastrika, and others have been demonstrated to benefit practitioners when practiced regularly. And if we want strong lungs that last a lifetime, we must do them on a regular basis. In addition to pranayama, the yogic activities known as yogasanas provide numerous benefits.

Can Sleep Apnea be Permanently Cured? Obstructive sleep apnea is caused by anatomical factors, therefore the question of a “cure” that lasts forever is difficult to answer. A CPAP machine or an oral appliance may be used to treat sleep apnea that is persistent. A CPAP is used at night and works by applying pressure to the airway to clear it. Another successful treatment that is typically seen as more comfortable for patients is oral appliance therapy, which resembles a mouthguard or retainer and projects the jaw forward to expand the airway while the patient is sleeping.
