POWERbreathe Medic Plus respiratory therapy device

POWERbreathe Medic Plus - the latest generation of respiratory therapy device from POWERbreath

Strengthens the respiratory muscles and reduces shortness of breath
Benefits and possible successes (with regular use):

• Strengthens the respiratory muscles through breathing training
• Calibrated resistance spring, adjustable from 3 - 78 cmH2O
• Reduces shortness of breath
• Improves air circulation by up to 65%

With the POWERbreathe medic plus breathing trainer, you train your breathing muscles (diaphragm) against a variable resistance. This strengthens your respiratory muscles and increases their stamina.
You start with the lowest level and can continue training at higher levels with regular use. Caution: You should not feel any pain during use. If you have any doubts, ask your doctor.

With regular use (see the training plan in the instructions for use), your respiratory muscle will become noticeably and measurably stronger after just one week.
Within the first three weeks you will have less shortness of breath, and after just four weeks you will find your daily activities much easier.

The breathing exercises with the POWERbreathe Medic Plus follow a proven principle: breathing against resistance. With this technique, the breathing muscles are challenged by the resistance. This makes them stronger and more enduring. Regular training makes breathing considerably easier, especially for people who suffer from limited breathing capacity.
