POWERbreathe Breathing Training – How It Works

The POWERbreathe breathing trainer strengthens your breathing muscles using resistance training. Our breathing device is often referred to as a dumbbell for your diaphragm. Use the breathing trainer for 30 breaths twice a day and see the benefits within 4-6 weeks.

The Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) device is scientifically proven to reduce breathing fatigue and increase breathing stamina in a wide range of people. From patients with respiratory illness to elite athletes – anyone can benefit from our breathing exercise device.

How the POWERbreathe EMT device works

POWERbreathe has a range of expiratory muscle training (EMT) devices designed to improve vocal and musical strength, stability, endurance and power whilst improving your quality of life. Our EMT devices are available at different resistance levels to suit individual needs.

Shaker Deluxe Review

“Bought for my elderly Mum, who has had a right mid-lobectomy and resultant COPD. It has helped her to practice deep breathing and I’m sure it will reduce the amount of chest infections she has. I am a nurse and decided to buy this product as it has helped one of my clients.”
