WELLBEING ? Use this POWERbreathe
flowchart to choose the best unit for your needs.
How many
of us get out-of-breath walking upstairs, running for a bus
or walking the dog? There can be many causes of breathlessness,
such as illness, injury or simply getting older.
Most people
assume breathing is controlled automatically, like our heartbeat,
but the truth is that we need to learn how to breathe well.
New research
has shown that exercising and strengthening the muscles we use
to breathe in - the inspiratory muscles - can help reduce breathlessness
and can also alleviate the symptoms of asthma.
POWERbreathe WELLBEING has been shown to reduce breathlessness
and bring new-found freedom to people who, because of illness
or advancing age, are restricted by shortness of breath. Using
the laboratory-proven POWERbreathe training system of 30 BREATHS
TWICE A DAY, the strength of your breathing muscles will improve
rapidly. An easy-to-use, drug free, hand-held device, POWERbreathe
WELLBEING has a controllable load for progressive exercise and
is appropriate for people at all levels of fitness.
Relieves
the symptoms of ASTHMA - POWERbreathe WELLBEING is great for
asthmatics, or anyone who suffers from respiratory problems.
Increases peak flow and lung capacity. Numerous research trials have already been conducted, examining
breathlessness and respiratory muscle fatigue in many groups
of people. In randomised, controlled trials, on mild / moderate
asthmatics, POWERbreathe increased inspiratory muscle strength
by a mean of 11% in just 3 weeks (McConnell et al., 1998)
POWERbreathe
WELLBEING is ideal for those new to exercise or suffering from
breathing disorders like ASTHMA - helps to improve peak flow and lung capacity.
