Suggest Treatment For Severe Asthma Attacks

Hi,
My dad gets severe Asthama attacks. We have visited some asthama specialist and they have prescribbed heavy corticosteriods for him. The steriods are effective for some time but somethimes even then my dad gets the severe asthama attacks. We have taken all the precautions possible to avoid the allergens around him. Please advise what do I do to stop his attacks. I have read about Thermoplasty procedure conducted in US. Is this method effective. Are any hospitals offering this procedure in India.

Thanks
Bhavin
