POWERbreathe Wellness - breathe easier
POWERbreathe Classic is the result of intense research, trials and development by scientists at Birmingham and Loughborough Universities, and was launched in 2001 with a model to suit every lifestyle: Wellness, Fitness and Sports Performance.
POWERbreathe Classic Wellness:
Hand-held breathing muscle trainer
Helps reduce breathlessness and improve lung function in those with breathing difficulties, including asthma, COPD, bronchitis etc
Drug-free device that is safe and natural, with no side-effects or drug interactions
In randomised, controlled trials on people with mild/moderate asthma, POWERbreathe increased breathing muscle strength by a mean of 11% in just 3 weeks (McConnell et al., 1998)
Uses the principles of resistance training to strengthen the breathing muscles
Breathing in through POWERbreathe against the resistance makes the breathing muscles work harder, thereby increasing their strength
Uses a ‘light variable resistance’ pressure valve with an adjustable tension knob that can be increased as breathing strength improves
Quick and easy to use – just 30 breaths twice daily takes less than 5-minutes
In just 4-weeks breathing feels easier and you’ll feel healthier and fitter
Hygienic design that is easy to clean. Complete with Instruction Booklet and nose clip
Directions for use:
- Full details are provided on the Instructional DVD included (approx: 35-mins).
- Twice a day simply breathe 30 times through your POWERbreathe against an adjustable resistance, making it more difficult to take air in. It takes about 4 minutes.
- As your breathing and muscle strength improves, simply adjust the resistance as you would with any other form of exercise. Improvement in breathing efficiency can be seen in just in 4 weeks.
