How can Specific Chiropractic in Boca Raton help with asthma and breathing?

Specific Chiropractic in Boca Raton may be helpful in managing asthma and breathing issues by addressing underlying issues with the nerves and musculoskeletal system that contribute to these conditions.


Misalignments in the spine, particularly in the thoracic (mid-back) and cervical (neck) regions, can interfere with the function of the nerves that control the lungs and respiratory muscles. This can contribute to breathing difficulties and exacerbate symptoms of asthma.


By performing Specific Chiropractic adjustments to correct these misalignments, chiropractors can help restore proper nerve function and communication, which may alleviate breathing difficulties and improve overall respiratory function.

Additionally, chiropractors may use other techniques such as soft tissue work or breathing exercises to improve lung function, increase chest expansion and reduce muscle tension in the neck and shoulders which can also contribute to breathing difficulties.



It is important to note that chiropractic care should not be used as a substitute for medical treatment for asthma or other breathing issues. However, when used in conjunction with medical treatment, chiropractic care may provide additional support for managing symptoms and improving overall respiratory health. If you are experiencing breathing difficulties or asthma, it is important to work with a healthcare professional who can provide individualized care and support for your specific needs.
