Description
The POWERbreathe Wellness is the ideal inspiratory muscle training (IMT) device for people with very weak diaphragms who wish to increase their breathing strength in a drug-free, gradual way.
The Wellness IMT device provides resistance to your in-breath, causing your inspiratory muscles to work harder. When the inspiratory muscles are ‘overloaded’ regularly in this way, they adapt and become stronger and more resistant to fatigue. Activating stronger inspiratory muscles requires less effort during a given task, reducing laboured breathing. Over time, you will build up inspiratory breathing strength and stamina. This can ease breathing issues.
Drug-free Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) is useful in conditions where breathing feels difficult. This drug-free Wellness IMT breathing device has no side effects or drug interactions. It can therefore be used with or without supervision, and can be easily used straight out of the box.
9 adjustable load settings – The POWERbreathe Wellness provides an introductory level of load setting (weight lifted) in increments from 10cmH2O to 90cmH2O.The range between each training level is quite small which means that as your breathing muscles become stronger and you move up one of the training levels by increasing the resistance, this small increase in cmH2O makes it more manageable.

Our patients have found it to be of great benefit We have been using the POWERbreathe Medic for over a year as part of the pulmonary rehab programme and our patients have found it to be of great benefit and enjoy using it. We have good compliance and have found an improvement in patients’ fitness. We will continue to use the POWERbreathe Medic as an adjunct to our programme.

After only a couple of weeks I found a positive difference On the up and up! I have now had my POWERbreathe for six weeks, I planned to see what the effects would be after then, but after only a couple of weeks I found a positive difference. My breathing was a lot better, easier and deeper, and I felt more confident and stronger, and found I did not need to carry my blue inhaler around with me. Working with my asthma nurse, (who had not heard of POWERbreathe) I still use my medication for the asthma I developed some ten years ago. I have always been active and do mountaineering, biking and the like, and still continue to do so. So it was baffling to find my condition was starting to bother me at times, while at rest. I use the red POWERbreathe Sport, now on my seventh week, after starting on the zero setting, now on 1.75. My peak flow readings are now averaging out at a higher reading than when I started, although technique using this is a bit iffy. All in all, after using POWERbreathe I feel very positive and I am only at the beginning.
