The Breath Connection

“Better breathing means better health”

You may be surprised to discover how many health problems are linked to poor breathing habits, habits we can all learn to change. See below just some of the hundred or more health problems and click on any one of them to learn more.

There are two key problems arising from this assumption that both affect the recognition of the effectiveness of the Buteyko Method; the first questions the trust we place in current clinical trials and the way they are constructed and the second is more fundamental, in that the overwhelming majority of clinical trials are funded by drug companies who are unwilling to fund research into a system that has already been shown to considerably reduce the need for drugs.

Watch the BBC video below that demonstrated the effectiveness of the Buteyko Method for Asthma.
