SUMMARY In studies of 94 patients with bronchial asthma (BA) during 1 year of controlled treatment, it was shown that the inclusion of acupuncture (IT) or a complex of non-invasive methods of traditional medicine (CLMTM) in the basic therapy of BA in a comparable degree improves the indicators of the
clinical state of patients and reduces more than 2 times the number of episodes of the seasonal unstable course of the disease against the background of a decrease in the drug load. It has been shown that an increase in the body’s tolerance to the effects of seasonal trigger factors and the achievement of the clinical effect of the applied non-drug methods can be associated in AD with the activation of adaptation mechanisms to stressful influences (correction of the blood cortisol level,
indicators of the immune status, etc.).
