Buteyko Method for Asthma
Clients are taught a method of self assessment and record keeping, given an action plan, and ideally, will also be taught relaxation techniques to reduce stress and breathing rates at the same time. People with mild symptoms may expect noticeable relief after the first session. Even people with severe symptoms will feel an increase in energy and a decrease in symptoms over 5 sessions. The more presenting symptoms, the more time it will take to stabilise the breathing, but improvements will be rapidly felt. Practitioners may recommend a follow up programme, depending on the severity of the condition
