Managing Asthma at Home
September 8, 2023
How to Manage Asthma at Home
Asthma can be a debilitating condition, but taking preventive steps in your home environment can drastically reduce triggers. Asthma triggers are various irritants that can provoke symptoms like wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath. Common household triggers include dust mites, pet dander, mould, and tobacco smoke. By minimising exposure to these irritants, you can create a healthier living space.
To reduce asthma triggers, consider the following strategies:
- Use High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Filters: These filters can trap harmful particles, including dust and pollen, thus purifying the air you breathe.
- Regular Cleaning: Vacuum carpets, upholstery, and other surfaces at least once a week. Use a damp cloth for wiping to avoid raising dust.
- Control Humidity: Keep indoor humidity levels between 30% and 50% to prevent mould growth.
- Pet Management: Keep pets out of bedrooms and bathing them regularly can reduce dander.
- Avoid Tobacco Smoke: Make your home a smoke-free zone to protect everyone from the harmful effects of smoking.
These strategies can significantly improve the quality of your indoor environment, which is crucial for asthma management. In addition to these home-based actions, remember that a comprehensive asthma management plan should be discussed with your healthcare provider. The plan often includes proper medication and lifestyle adjustments specific to your condition.
By taking these measures, you're not just reducing potential triggers for asthma symptoms; you're contributing to a healthier, more comfortable living environment for everyone in your household. It's a win-win situation: a healthier home and a better quality of life for those living with asthma.

When I have rang and enquired about any product information I have always received prompt up to date details about items I have wanted to purchase. The staff at Sleep Solutions are professional, polite and nothing is too much trouble for them when ordering and the ongoing communciation with 'products in transit' is second to none. Highly recommend this company. Christine

I purchased the Wireless Bluetooth Headband. Frustrating from first use fiddling around with the control panel and the cabled buds inside the band. After just a few uses the control unit wouldn't charge as advertised (inside the band). Troubleshooting suggested removing from the band, did this but still would not charge. Contacted sleep solutions, sent them a short video of the charging error lights. Despite the product being less than 2 months old they sent me a pre-paid consignment note, to send the control panel & charging pad back to them - I was instructed to include a detailed explanation of the problem and of course my contact details. They would investigate and come back to me. I was also to ensure the product was packaged in a manner to prevent damage. What they should have done, given the age of the product is apologise and sent me a replacement. Unit is useless, I'll throw it out.

Quick delivery and great communication. Sound machine works perfectly for my daughters room
Bought online, after 9 days of having no notice about shipping I emailed them and only then they sent the package. It's been two weeks and I still haven't been delivered.
