Asthma can affect people of all ages, causing wheezing, breathlessness, tight chest, and recurring cough. Many patients also struggle with nighttime attacks, sensitivity to cold air, or difficulty breathing during physical activity. At TheTole, asthma is approached through a holistic understanding of the lungs, immune system, and internal energy (Qi) — combining personalized herbal formulas and acupuncture developed by Dato’ Tole since 1987.
Asthma often appears when the lungs are weak, phlegm becomes trapped, or internal heat irritates the airways. Modern triggers such as stress, dust, weather changes, smoke, and allergies can worsen the condition. TheTole’s asthma program aims to strengthen the lungs naturally, clear phlegm, reduce airway sensitivity, and support long-term breathing stability.
How TheTole Supports Asthma Patients
1. Strengthening Lung Qi (Energy)
Asthma frequently begins with weak Lung Qi, making the airways sensitive and easily blocked. TheTole herbs help nourish and reinforce lung strength for smoother breathing.
2. Clearing Phlegm & Trapped Dampness
Many asthma attacks are caused by thick phlegm blocking the airways. The herbal formulas support the body’s natural ability to thin, release, and clear phlegm.
3. Reducing Internal Heat & Airway Irritation
Some patients experience heat in the chest, coughing fits, or inflamed airways. TheTole herbs include soothing and cooling elements to calm internal heat.
4. Supporting Immune Balance
Asthma often links to allergies or weak body resistance. TheTole’s immune-supporting herbal ingredients help reduce triggers and prevent flare-ups.
5. Acupuncture for Lung Function
In-clinic acupuncture sessions target meridians related to the lungs, chest expansion, and breathing flow. This helps improve oxygen circulation and reduce tightness.
Every patient receives a personalized herbal prescription based on their asthma type — allergic asthma, cough-variant, phlegm-damp asthma, or exercise-induced.
