Asthma Treatment at Forum Health

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to recurrent episodes of wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. This condition affects millions of individuals worldwide and requires ongoing management to control symptoms and prevent exacerbations.

Our Approach to Asthma Management

At Forum Health, we take a comprehensive approach to asthma management, focusing on personalized care, education, and support to help individuals effectively control their symptoms and improve their quality of life. Our team works closely with each patient to develop individualized treatment plans that address their unique triggers, needs, goals, and preferences.

Types of Asthma

At Forum Health, we provide support for various types of asthma, including:

Allergic Asthma

Allergic asthma is triggered by exposure to allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, or mold. Individuals with allergic asthma may experience symptoms when exposed to specific allergens that trigger an immune response and inflammation in the airways.

Non-Allergic Asthma

Non-allergic asthma can be triggered by factors other than allergens, such as respiratory infections, cold air, exercise, smoke, or strong odors. While non-allergic asthma shares similar symptoms with allergic asthma, the underlying triggers may differ.

Occupational Asthma

Occupational asthma develops due to exposure to irritants or allergens in the workplace, such as chemicals, dust, fumes, or gases. Symptoms typically improve when individuals are away from work but worsen upon exposure to the triggering substances.

Symptoms of Asthma

The symptoms of asthma can vary in severity and frequency but may include:

Wheezing (a whistling sound when breathing)

Coughing, especially at night or early in the morning

Shortness of breath, especially during physical activity or at rest

Chest tightness or discomfort

Difficulty sleeping due to nighttime symptoms

Fatigue or reduced exercise tolerance

Hear From Our Patients

For most of my life, I was told I needed all these different doctors with different specialties to figure out what was happening in my body. What I really needed was a functional doctor who listened and treated me as a whole person with connected systems. With the support of my Forum Health care team, I’m slowly but surely reversing my severe eczema, hypothyroidism, allergies, and chronic fatigue.

My parents, myself, and my children have been patients of Dr. Peterson for several years. He is an amazing doctor! The amount of time that he spend talking with us about our medical history and ALL of our symptoms was kind of shocking at first. He is incredibly thorough, both in talking to us as patients and in the testing that he does. I have been so impressed with the progress we have made because of his willingness to do testing.

After I had my daughter, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s. I felt awful at the time. I was exhausted, bloated, had trouble concentrating, had heart palpitations, dizzy spells, and generally felt like I was carrying a backpack of bricks with me all day, every day. When I came to Dr. Taylor’s office he implemented a thorough and detailed plan for me...

Amazing doctors that actually listen and care about your health!

... Not only am I feeling better first the first time in years, but I’m finally losing weight and inches in a healthy, sustainable way! They’ve helped me to heal my gut and we are taking my PCOS on head on - it’s amazing and something that conventional medicine has been spinning their wheels with for years! I cannot wait to see where this journey takes me and know that I am a client for life!
