COPD/Lung Issues

Chinese medicine views chronic lung conditions—such as COPD, chronic bronchitis, or emphysema—as signs that the body’s lung energy and overall vitality have been weakened over time. This can be the result of long-term illness, environmental factors, or lifestyle influences. When the lungs are not functioning at their best, it can lead to shortness of breath, coughing, fatigue, and reduced quality of life. Rather than only managing symptoms, Chinese medicine works to strengthen the lungs, support immune function, and improve the body’s overall energy.

At Golden Crane Acupuncture, we use acupuncture, herbal medicine, and breathing-focused therapies to help open the airways, reduce inflammation, and promote easier breathing. Treatments are designed to increase circulation to the lungs, ease coughing, and boost resilience so you can better manage your condition. Whether you’re dealing with frequent flare-ups or looking for ways to support your breathing day-to-day, we create a personalized plan to help you feel stronger, more comfortable, and more in control of your health.
