Naturopathic treatment of chronic bronchitis

I have been diagnosed with allergies and a "reactive airway" for years now. Recently I have been working with Hospice and have to go into homes of smokers. I find that since working for Hospice that I have recurrent bronchitis (severe) with fever, chills, malaysia, about every two months or so. Is there any naturopathic treatment that would help me keep from getting sick so much? I realize this topic could cover many areas of ENT issues, but any response would be appreciated.

How are you? Naturopathic medicine treats health conditions by utilizing the body's inherent ability to heal. It is not a single modality of healing but an array of healing practices including diet and clinical nutrition; homeopathy; acupuncture; herbal medicine; hydrotherapy; therapeutic exercise; spinal and soft tissue manipulation; physical therapies involving electric currents, ultrasound, and light therapy; therapeutic counseling; and pharmacology.  (http://www.healingartscenter.com/Library/articles/art07.htm)

For naturopathic physicians, understanding the patient as an individual is essential when searching for causative factors, particularly in the areas of the physical, mental/emotional, and spiritual. If you are interested in this type of healing, it is best that you visit a naturopathic physician and discuss which treatment is appropriate for you.

I hope this helps. Take care and keep us posted.

Personally I take probiotics to help with my seasonnal allergies.  I had a rhinitis last year and i refused to take antibiotics. My pharmacist proposed to me that I start taking a probiotic called Bio-K+, and my rhinitis has disappeared and my allergies sypmtoms have reduced a great deal since then.

I have been on this product for almost a year and i also noticed that it helps me with my energy level.

I think you should try it. Good luck
