This is a highly effective programme for adults and children which incorporates the revolutionary Buteyko breathing method. Patrick McKeown is a former chronic asthmatic who went on to become one of the very few accredited Buteyko practitioners in Britain. The Buteyko breathing method is the single most effective self-help treatment for asthma and can be used by adults and children. With the programme, asthma sufferers can: • stop persistent attacks and coughing • reduce their dependency on medication • unblock nose naturally with a simple exercise • prevent attacks during sports • explain breathing exercises to a child • learn about diet, sleeping and other lifestyle factors
