Breathe Easier
Many people think breathing is as auto-controlled as your heart beat - but it isn't. Most of us need to learn to breathe well. Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) exercises your inspiratory muscles - the muscels we use to breathe.
Like any under used muscle the respiratory muscels become weak without exercise. By partaking in IMT and creating ressistance against the inward breath, you are making your inspiratory muscles work harder and ultimately improving their strength and endurance. POWERbreathe allows you to do this. POWERbreathe can be thought of as dumbbells for your diaphragm.
There are many causes of breathlessness such as illness, injury or simply getting older. POWERbreathe is a drug free way to help you regain your vitality and once again enjoy activities you may have thought were beyond you.
POWERbreathe research has shown the following results in people suffering from:
COPD - improvements in inspiratory muscle strength, endurance and exercise tolerance - (more information)
- Asthma - improvements in lung function and a reduction in medication usage, hospitalisation and absence
from school/work - (more information)
- Cystic Fibrosis - improvements in lung function and exercise tolerance - (more information)
