How to Use

Forcefully inhale through the mouthpiece to make the three coloured balls float. Repeating this breathing exercise daily is perfect for pulmonary rehabilitation and physiotherapy. The quality of your breathing will improve and mucus will be loosened.

There are two lines in the first cylinder for another breathing exercise. Try and balance the ball between them to train the depth of your breathing rather than the strength.

Adjustable Resistance Levels

The Respiron has four levels of resistance – 0 (easy), 1 (average), 2 (difficult), and 3 (very difficult). Start at level 0 and advance to the next level when the exercise no longer challenges you. Turn the blue regulator to increase the intensity.

Once you are comfortable at level 3, challenge yourself further by trying to keep the balls floating for longer periods.

Train Expiratory Muscles

You can also train your expiratory muscles by holding the Respiron upside down and blowing through the mouthpiece. Training your expiratory muscles can help to fight shortness of breath and improve cough strength.

Care and Maintenance

The Respiron is for individual use and should be cleaned after each use. For more thorough cleaning, use the POWERbreathe cleansing tablets.
