Discover the benefits of healthy breathing for optimal well-being with the Buteyko Method
Developed in the 1950s by Ukrainian Doctor Konstantin Buteyko, the Buteyko Method consists of a series of breathing exercises and guidelines specifically designed to reduce over-breathing (clinically known as ‘chronic hyperventilation’).
Over time, many people unconsciously develop breathing habits that are less than ideal. They may over-breathe, or breathe through an open mouth during wakefulness and sleep. This alters the natural levels of gases in the blood, reduces oxygen delivery to tissues and organs, and causes constriction of the smooth muscles surrounding blood vessels and airways. Such dysfunctional breathing habits can contribute to numerous health problems, including shortness of breath, cold hands and feet, feeling panicked or anxious, having difficulty concentrating, digestive disturbances, poor posture, high blood pressure and disrupted sleep.
The Buteyko Method teaches you how to restore functional, nasal breathing 24/7, normalizing the volume of air that is breathed and helping to alleviate such health problems. The exercises are easily integrated into your routine, whatever your age, health or goals.
The Buteyko Method offers simple, tailored breathing exercises and daily programs to help improve:
-
Anxiety, stress, racing mind, panic attacks and trauma
-
Asthma and respiratory disorders (including coughing, wheezing, breathlessness and
-
