"Tamaka Swasa" is a term used in Ayurvedic Medicine for allergies and asthma. However, it is caused by vitiation of all three humors or doshas, but Vata and Kapha are predominant in bronchial asthma in Ayurveda.
According to Ayurveda, the common causes may include but are not limited to excessive use of beans, raw milk, black grams, sour curd, excess salt, and aquatic animal food. A dry and heavy diet may also be a cause of bronchial asthma. Other factors are extra cold, cold baths, excess sunbath, excessive exercise, etc.

Ayurvedic texts have mentioned numerous natural remedies and ayurvedic Medicine for asthma bronchitis, which are used traditionally.
Natural Ayurvedic treatment of Asthma Bronchitis involves using Ayurvedic classical, traditional medicines, organic herbs, and dietary & lifestyle changes to enhance the immune system.
These are some of the commonly used Ayurvedic remedies for asthma used traditionally:
Puskarmool (Inula racemosa)
Inula racemose or Puskarmool is a helpful herb in pleurisy, chronic cold, and cough. It is known for its anti-tubercular properties. It is a febrifuge, an aromatic tonic, and an expectorant with several carminative, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and diuretic properties. This herb can also help relieve pain in the chest.
According to research by Pooja Khurana et al., Pushkarmool may be useful in treating asthma. It has anti-histaminic and bronchodilator action. The main alkaloid in the oil derived from the root of this plant is alantolactone, which has anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. Pushkarmool has ushna, virya, and vatakaphahara properties which are the main dosha in bronchial asthma.
Long Pepper
Pippali, or long pepper, is mentioned as a powerful rejuvenating herb in Ayurveda. Pippali, or long pepper, is a stimulant for the respiratory and digestive systems and may offer rejuvenating effects on the lungs. The roots of this herb can be used to treat respiratory infections. Consumption of this powdered herb and honey can relieve cough and cold.
Licorice (glycyrrhiza glabra)
It helps eliminate kapha from the stomach and chest and helps to clear out the phlegm in bronchial tubes and lungs. However, you should not use this herb if you are having hypertension.
Findings of research done by Ladde Shivakumar and Shalam enlist the uses of Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabraradix) in treating asthma. The herb's active compounds, glycyrrhetinic acid, and carbenoxolone, are potent inhibitors of cortisol metabolism, thereby enhancing endogenous and exogenous steroid benefits.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale)
Ginger acts as a natural expectorant. It has been used since ancient times to treat several respiratory infections and helps control bronchial asthma attacks. Freshly grated ginger and little turmeric can be added to milk while boiling. You may have it twice every day to get some relief from the asthma.
As per the research done by Ranjita Prasad et al., the dried rhizome of ginger contains approximately 1–4% volatile oils. It is a powerful natural anti-allergy agent, especially acting on the respiratory system. It has powerful expectorant properties that are very helpful in asthma.
Cinnamon
It helps clear kapha from the stomach and chest and phlegm from the lungs. Half spoon of cinnamon powder and a little honey can be consumed twice a day may help to move the phlegm.
Nagar (Nut grass, Cyperus rotundus)
Prolonged use of this herb can help relieve bronchial asthma. It clears blocked phlegm. 2 grams of agar powder and bearing (Clerodendrum indicum) can be mixed in water to make a fine paste and taken with lukewarm water to treat bronchial asthma in Ayurveda.
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
The roots of ashwagandha have several medicinal properties. It acts as an adaptogen and helps reduce stress. It is known as a Rasayana (rejuvenating) herb. This herb helps to boost body immunity and hence may help with asthma and cough.
Turmeric
Turmeric has medicinal properties, which may help treat respiratory disorders. Anti-purulent and anti-inflammatory properties in turmeric may help treat cough, cold, and other respiratory infections. It may be adjuvant in clearing air blockage due to bronchial asthma. Turmeric can be used in several ways to treat bronchial asthma. You can add a little pinch of turmeric to your milk and drink it daily. Inhaling the vapors of hot water and turmeric can also help clear nose blockage.
Black Pepper
It is yet another spice that helps to treat cough and cold. Add a pinch of black pepper, turmeric, and ginger in milk and boil it for a few minutes. You can drink it twice daily to reduce the phlegm in the lungs, colds, and coughs.
Bharangi (Clerodendrum indicum)
It is also known as the blue fountain brush. This herb helps balance vata and kapha disorders. Bharangi has anti-histamine properties and can help effectively treat bronchial asthma by stabilizing mast cells. When mixed with water, a few grams of nagar and bearing can be consumed in lukewarm water.
Garlic
Garlic has been used for ages to treat several diseases. Add freshly grated ginger and a few garlic cloves to your milk. This is an incredible ayurvedic treatment to treat asthma.
Below is the list of classical or traditional products used in wheezing ayurvedic Medicine:
In addition to ayurvedic treatment, yoga can help with bronchial asthma to improve lung capacity. Breathing exercises can help promote optimum health of the lungs and strengthen the respiratory system.
Asthma treatment in Ayurveda and yoga includes yoga posture and breathing exercises that may benefit asthma. Name of such yoga posture is Nadi Shodhan pranayama (Alternate nostril breathing technique), Kapal Bhati pranayama (Skull shining breathing technique), Ardha Matsyendrasana (Sitting half spinal twist), Pavanamuktasana (Wind relieving pose), Setu Bandhasana (Bridge pose), Bhujangasana (Cobra pose), Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward-facing dog pose), Badhakonasana (Butterfly pose), Poorvottanasana (Upward plank pose) and Shavasana (Corpse pose).
Most people only rely on medications to get relief from the symptoms of asthma. You can also make a few changes in your lifestyle to maintain your health by lessening the possibility of an asthma attack. These healthy changes in the diet and lifestyle work together with the right ayurvedic Medicine for Allergic, bronchial, and dry cough asthma.

Ayurveda stads for extensive and elaborate clinical examination to understand thenature of the disease
I consulted Pure Herbal Ayurved Clinic for my teenage son to improve his height. He was 4.11 at 13. I was very worried as we are not tall parents and I thought to do something natural soon before its too late. I took a phone consultation with Dr Saini at Pure Herbal Ayurved Clinic. Range of dietary, lifestyle changes were suggested and some Ayurvedic medicine was posted to me. I am very happy to say that with in six months, my son has shown a significant improvement in height. His family and friends have all acknowledged the improvement in height. I highly recommend Pure Herbal Ayurved Clinic for natural height improvements.
Highly recommend seeing Pooja for various womens health issues. Pooja offers long term alternative approaches to self managing one's health with the holistic ayurvedic system. Her manner and concern is sincere and she is very conscious of leaving you with the tools you need to take care of yourself beyond her consultations.
Simply the best thing I have done for myself and my health. Just knowing that Dr Saini is there is so comforting.
I thoroughly recommend Ayurveda Doctor Gurnam Saini! He is fantastic. I was feeling depressed with low moods and low energy, I'd put on weight and was experiencing hair loss. I saw results with my energy and mood after only a few days of treatment and after three months I have been gradually losing weight and my hair is becoming thicker and fuller. His Ayurveda herbs and supplements definitely do the trick, and his dietary recommendations are pretty easy to implement into your lifestyle. If you're feeling like your overall health and well-being could be better I recommend giving this a try.
Three weeks after my first visit with Gurnam, I started noticing big differences in the symptoms that I was experiencing as a result of hormonal imbalance, anxiety & stress, sleeplessness, hair loss, diabetes and weight issues. The most noticeable change were my hot flushes. My constant hot flushes (approx every 20-30 minutes) were debilitating and driving me to the point where I was just not going out. I was constantly hot and not sleeping week at all. Within 3 weeks this changed to about 2 during the day and just general warmth overnight, which meant I was sleeping better and not having to get up and cool my face and wash my body before returning to bed. My anxiety levels have been reduced significantly, even though I have still been faced with stressful situations and the hair fall much less. The herbal tea that I make each morning and drink through the day keeps me full and is neutral tasting unlike other ‘tonics’ Ive tried before. I look forward to seeing Gurnam monthly to get my mix of Herbal treatments and feeling better with each visit. Thank you Gurnam 🙌🏽
Thanxs heaps just by following his advise how many issues he has fixed for my son with in two weeks i got no words to express. Eczema , immune over ride and sobhoricc dermatitis has vanished . He is still working on my child but wandering in eight years what our western medicine couldn’t find and couldn’t do . Doctor gurnam saini done it with in two weeks . All he ask follow what he says . Thanxs from core of my heart . 🙏
I have been under Dr Sainis treatment for backpain over 2 months.He is an empathetic sensitive and responsible Dr who gave careful directives and absolutely effective treatment to me as a patient.I could speak to him my issues confidently enough and he takes it for face value.I am completely fine now.I thought of my fears of my future and my job which was my sole income.I would love to say that I praise God and highly recommend Dr Saini as an effective practitioner for me and in Ayurveda.Thank you Dr Saini for everything that you have done to help me.
Hello all, I have been consulting Dr. Saini for past 2years or so and have found his treatment very helpful and effective. He has a deep knowledge of Aryuveda and listens to your health issues, doubts and concerns patiently and advices Aryuved herbs and gives advice accordingly. He is kind and easy to talk to. I highly recommend Dr. Saini to anyone who is looking for treatment for their health issues or improving their overall health.
I decided to take my 10 yr old daughter to Dr Saini after 9.5 yrs of struggling with eczema and food intolerances, and no solutions found but topical, long term use of cortisone creams. After only one month, we saw massive improvements in her skin, finally clearing up the majority of her eczema. This was done with herbal capsules and without needing to remove various foods from her diet. That improvement allowed us to tackle other health concerns like her consistent disturbed sleep. Now 4 months on, her skin is perfect, and her sleep is mostly uninterrupted. Any sporadic nighttime waking is for a very short period of time. And even better, now we can focus on her digestion which is my last concern for her. I can’t recommend Ayurvedic medicine enough to gently and naturally heal and balance out your body. l had done lots of reading on Ayurveda before we tried it, and all my expectations have been met and I’m sure will be exceeded in the near future. Thank you Dr Saini, for your kind and gentle consultations, and genuine interest in better health outcomes for your patients.
It was a wonderful experience with u guys.A natural way to fight the disease with no side effects of treatment.
I started to get depressive mood and nightmares since diagnosed with varicocele and hydrocele. Specialist recommended me getting coil embolization to block the veins. I was hesitant with the idea of it and ignored his advice. I thought I would try with natural approach to deal with my health issues. After reading online I started to make healthy changes in my life-style and food regime e.g. avoiding inflammatory and junk food, energy drinks etc. Also reduced smoking and alcohol for 3 months. But my pain and swelling in the scrotal area did not improve. More over I started to get lack of libido, premature ejaculation and erectile difficulties. Due to that I started to remain frustrated and angry most of the time. My relationship with my family members, friends and partner started to get difficult. Finally came across Dr Saini ayurvedic medicine clinic in Melbourne. Had a detial consult with Dr Saini. His Ayurveda approach for varicocele and its related problem worked like magic for me. First month he modified my life-style and food, based on my ayurvedic makeup. He also introduced some his own blends of organic herbs and spices with daily breathing exercise. In second month I did panchakarma detoxification. Now there is no pain or swelling in my scrotal area. My manpower is back to normal (even better than earlier), having grounded emotions and sound sleep with best physical and mental health. I highly recommend everyone to follow ayurvedic life style and its natural way of healing your body. Dr Saini is best in his job.
I highly recommend Pure Herbal Ayurved Clinic. I saw Dr Gurnam for 6 months because of increased long term insomnia. The holistic approach offered definately was a huge help. I am able to sleep so much better and my general mental health has dramatically improved. Please consider the ancient practice of Ayurvedic Medicine for any aspect of your health. Dr Gurnam really cares and wants to work with you to give you the best possible health and wellbeing outcomes.
