Rhinitis & Asthma: Managing Immune Overreaction with Korean Medicine

What is Rhinitis & Asthma?

Rhinitis & Asthma is a common chronic condition that often resists simple symptomatic treatment. Stress, immune imbalance, and lifestyle factors all play interconnected roles.

Western Medical Approach

Standard treatment typically involves medications (antihistamines, steroids, immunosuppressants). While effective for symptom control, these often lead to recurrence upon discontinuation and carry risks of long-term side effects.

The Korean Medicine Perspective

At Jibon Clinic, we approach Rhinitis & Asthma through three axes:

• Autonomic balance: The core regulator of immune overreaction or suppression
• Circulation: Local blood flow improvement as foundation for tissue recovery
• Chronic inflammation: Herbal medicine and acupuncture to modulate accumulated inflammatory responses

Motae Hwangol therapy (Chuna) integrates meridian and lymphatic regulation. Personalized herbal prescriptions address root causes.

Treatment at Jibon Clinic

With extensive clinical experience in treating Rhinitis & Asthma, we combine acute symptom relief with long-term constitutional improvement to reduce recurrence and improve quality of life.
