Asthma impacts over 25 million Americans and is more than just a respiratory issue. At Patients Medical in New York City, we understand asthma as a complex, chronic inflammatory condition with deep-rooted triggers. Our integrative medicine team goes beyond inhalers and steroids to uncover the underlying imbalances in immunity, environment, and lifestyle that contribute to your symptoms.
We treat the whole person—not just the lungs.
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disorder marked by inflammation and narrowing of the airways. This leads to breathing difficulty, wheezing, chest tightness, and coughing—especially at night or early in the morning.
Common Asthma Types:
Childhood Asthma: Often linked to food sensitivities, immune imbalance, and environmental toxins.
Many patients live with asthma for years without a proper diagnosis or are misdiagnosed as having allergies or chronic bronchitis.
Common Symptoms Include:
Using a functional medicine lens, we identify deeper root causes that trigger and worsen asthma. These may include:
To design a personalized plan, we use advanced diagnostics that uncover hidden contributors to asthma:
✅ Food sensitivity and allergy testing (IgE and IgG)
✅ Comprehensive stool analysis (gut microbiome, parasites)
✅ Environmental toxin screening (mold, mycotoxins, VOCs)
✅ Inflammatory markers (CRP, histamine, eosinophils)
✅ Nutrient testing (magnesium, vitamin D, glutathione)
✅ Hormone and adrenal function panels
Our team creates a custom healing plan that addresses both symptom relief and long-term resilience.

Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) and low-dose immunotherapy (LDI) may help retrain your immune response to allergens.
