ABSTRACT
Asthma is one of the most prevalent chronic health conditions among children and adults. It is really curse for human being as it is a chronic disorder with longstanding duration requiring lifelong management. If the patient of Tamaka Shwasa drops the treatment, disease aggravates again with more severity. The origin of Tamaka Shwasa(bronchial asthma) from Amashaya(stomach) has a great importance in the light of modern medicine where the gastro-esophagial reflux has an etiological role in bronchial asthma. Involvement of three Srotas i.e. Pranvaha, Udakavaha and Annavaha with their specific clinical features shows the broad approach to disease. Asthma is an extremely difficult condition, leaving the person gasping for breath and in some cases it can have dangerous consequences as well. Most people who suffer from asthma are asked to use inhalers and may be approved bronchodilators. But just because you are an asthmatic doesn’t mean that you need to be on medication to survive. Pranayam(breathing exercise), Yoga posses can help beat the symptoms and make your lungs stronger. People with asthma may find some forms of physical activity challenging due difficulty in breathing. But Yoga is an all-around stress-relieving technique with gentle stretches and a slower pace than other workouts. There are so many yoga procedures that can help the people to overcome the challenges of asthma.
