Asthma

Focused chiropractic care focused on posture, spinal mobility, and tension that may affect breathing comfort.

Asthma is a medical condition that should always be managed with the guidance of your physician. At Functional Chiropractic, our role is not to replace medical asthma treatment. Our focus is to support the musculoskeletal factors that may affect breathing comfort, such as posture, rib and thoracic mobility, and tension through the neck, shoulders, and upper back.

What is Asthma?

Asthma is a condition that affects the airways and can make breathing feel tight, difficult, or restricted during flare-ups. While chiropractic care does not treat the airway condition itself, poor posture, spinal stiffness, and tension in the chest and upper back can sometimes make breathing feel less comfortable. Supportive chiropractic care may help improve how the body moves and expands during breathing.

How It Works

Chiropractic care related to asthma support begins with an assessment of posture, thoracic spine movement, rib motion, and muscular tension through the chest, neck, and shoulders. When these areas are restricted, the body may not move as freely during normal breathing. Through gentle chiropractic adjustments and movement-focused care, the goal is to improve mobility and reduce tension that may contribute to physical breathing discomfort.

Is Chiropractic Care a Helpful Support for Asthma?

Common Conditions We Treat:

If posture, spinal stiffness, or upper body tension seem to add to your breathing discomfort, chiropractic care may be a helpful supportive option. Our care is designed to improve mobility and reduce physical restriction while working alongside your existing medical care plan.

What to Expect During Your Session

Your visit begins with a conversation about your health history, posture habits, breathing-related discomfort, and movement concerns. We then assess thoracic motion, rib mobility, spinal alignment, and muscular tension to understand what areas may need support.

If chiropractic care is recommended, your treatment plan is tailored to your condition and comfort level. Each session is designed to improve mobility, reduce restriction, and help your body move more comfortably.

Why Choose Functional Chiropractic?

A Supportive, Whole-Body Approach

We understand that asthma involves more than one system. Our role is to support the structural and movement-related factors that may influence comfort, posture, and breathing mechanics.

Care That Works Alongside Your Medical Plan

We provide supportive chiropractic care that fits into a broader health routine, with a focus on movement, posture, and reducing physical tension rather than replacing medical asthma treatment.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I started seeing Dr. Porter because I was suffering from upper cervical and back pain. Since seeing Dr. Porter I've noticed a huge improvement in my pain levels. They have great customer service, and every employee will greet you with a smile. My wife also goes to Dr. Porter, and is getting relief with her migraines as well. I would highly recommend you check them out, if you too are are suffering from neck or back pain. There is relief to be had, and it can start at Functional Chiropractic!!!

I highly recommend them for pregnancy! I had very painful sciatica and it is now completely gone! I feel amazing even in my third trimester because of their help. Very friendly staff and I'm always in and out quick.

I was a chiropractic care skeptic. I thought they were all snake oil salesman. Then I met with Doc Porter and really began to understand what the craft is all about what it does and does not do. After a few visits, I was convinced it made a difference in my life. After several years, I consider it essential healthcare. Full conversion to “Now I get it” - and not just any team can do that. Not all chiropractic doctors, just as in any profession, are the same. This is the best.
John Stough
Dr Porter is one of the most passionate doctors I’ve dealt with. He wants to give the patient the information they need to understand what the care is all about, and what to expect. He’s happy to answer questions and does not rush anyone in and out of the office like most doctors. Experience was a 10/10
