Background: Chronic airway inflammation and elevated airway hyperresponsiveness, which cause wheezing, coughing, and dyspnea, are hallmarks of bronchial asthma. Numerous environmental and genetic factors are implicated. The knowledge and evidence on the combined effect of Naturopathy and yoga on bronchial asthma is limited. The purpose of this study was to assess how yoga's naturopathic benefits would lessen bronchial asthma..Materials and Methods: Sree Ramakrishna Medical College of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences and Hospital, situated in Kulasekharam, Tamil Nadu, India, is where the study was conducted. A single case study was presented. Verbal consent was obtained when the goal of the study was explained. Over the course of 21 days, the investigation was carried out. The six-minute walk test, the rate of perceived exertion (RPE), the rate of perceived dyspnea (RPD), and the recording of frequent symptom changes are the parameters of the study. Results:The data analysis was conducted using JASP software version 0.95.0. It is clear that a significant decrease in bronchial asthma was achieved by the combination of naturopathy and yoga treatments. The combined naturopathic and yoga therapies clearly reduced the symptoms of exertion (RPE) (t 6.776, p-value < 0.001) and dyspnea (RPD) (t 7.266, p-value < 0.001). Conclusion: Given the benefits of the therapies that yoga and naturopathy offer, it would be prudent to add them to conventional treatment regimens in order to efficiently manage bronchial asthma symptoms and reduce the side effects of drug use. Yoga and naturopathy utilize a lifestyle that integrates diet, yoga, and naturopathic practices to prevent and treat bronchial asthma by reducing its underlying cause.
