Does it train your inspiratory muscles?

Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) works your diaphragm and intercostal muscles, to help relieve breathlessness, improve fitness and stamina, and boost your quality of life

Does it train your expiratory muscles?

Expiratory Muscle Training (EMT) will work the muscles involved with exhalation and can strengthen cough and swallow function, beneficial for individuals with conditions like Parkinson's Disease, Stroke and those looking to improve breath control like singers and musicians.

Training guidance, Results, Feedback & Statistics

Provides guidance on which resistance level to use

Resistance levels are manually adjusted

Automatically works out and sets the most appropriate resistance level to train at

Comes in a range of resistance levels - Light, Medium, Heavy and Medic

The Mechanical POWERbreathe devices are available in Medic, Light, Medium and Heavy resistances. Light is suitable for the majority of people. If you are very fit and healthy, try a Medium resistance. Heavy is only suitable for individuals who have reached maximum on a Medium resistance device (very few ever do!) The Medic device is suitable for individuals with a medical condition.

Resistance Range (cmH2O)

Resistance automatically adjusts with your breath, for more efficient breathing training

This is known as tapered resistance, an auto-optimising system unique to POWERbreathe. Your lung muscles naturally weaken as you breathe in. Using a mechanical breathing trainer means you would stop each breath just over half way through when weakening muscles can't continue. The K-Series devices gradually decrease resistance towards the end of each breath, allowing you to train through the entire breath.

Perform a Breathing Strength Test, using global measures to evaluate your lung strength
