Asthma is a growing problem that affects
young and old alike. For people who have asthma, the symptoms
are debilitating, frightening, and sometimes poorly controlled
by their medication. Patients are increasingly looking for
alternatives to traditional drug-based treatments either
because their medication doesn’t appear to work, or because
they fear its side-effects. Others simply want to explore the
addition of alternative treatments in an effort to maximise
control of their asthma.
POWERbreathe offers people with asthma a
drug-free, clinically-proven method of reducing their
symptoms, and putting them in control of their asthma.
Research has shown that inspiratory muscle strength is
improved, and breathlessness is reduced after as little as
three weeks of POWERbreathe training
(McConnell et al, 1998).
Longer term training produces additional benefits such as
reductions in the use of medication (see figure 1), fewer
absences from work/school, fewer GP and hospital visits, and
improved quality of life. Further details of these studies are
available on the Medical information page, or by downloading
the Medical information leaflet.
POWERbreathe is also helpful for other conditions in which
breathlessness limits physical activity or quality of life,
especially emphysema, chronic bronchitis and heart failure.

bought a POWERbreathe and cannot believe the improvement of my
breathing. I am going to see my asthma nurse to discuss coming
off my preventer." T Dure, UK.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
POWERbreathe is not intended as an alternative to your
asthma medication, but as something that works alongside it.
However, after using POWERbreathe for a few weeks you will
probably experience a reduction in the need to use your
'reliever' (blue) inhaler. Changes to your medication
regimen should not be made without consultation with your
healthcare professional.
