Rosalyn they have started Breatheasy in our area and I cannot say I find it of any benefit at all. So far speakers have included last month - how to stop smoking (all non-smokers) and a chest consultant who was tellling us all what we already knew!

Bob - I do not know!

Chris, is this where you force youself to breathe IN? deeply?
saw something like that a few years ago that they were asking schoolkids to do...to see if it improves their asthma symptoms......

ever heard of POWERbreathe? If so what do you think or is it a gimmick?

Seen this advertised and use daily for 30 breaths per session - will force your respiratory muscles to work harder and will see improvement in 3 weeks.
