Lightweight and portable, it features adjustable resistance settings for personalized training, making it ideal for patients with respiratory conditions as well as athletes and performers. With nearly a million units sold since 1980 and included online training, it enhances lung capacity, oxygen flow, and overall respiratory fitness to boost endurance and quality of life. ## Description The Breather is the first drug-free evidence-based Inspiratory/Expiratory Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) device used by COPD, Asthma, CHF, Dysphagia, Stroke, Hypertension, Parkinsons, and Neuromuscular disease patients, as well as athletes, singers, and musicians. It trains both inspiratory and expiratory muscles independently. Clinical benefits of RMT include improved dyspnea (shortness of breath), peak cough flow, laryngeal function, QOL, vent weaning, and speech and swallow performance. The original Breather was launched in 1980 and retired in 2017 with almost 1 million units sold. This new model was designed by therapists and builds from the success of the original Breather Breathing against resistance during respiratory muscle training (RMT) activates and strengthens respiratory muscles and improves health and quality of life by promoting regained activity and exercise tolerance. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS: Your Breather will be exposed to a quantity of saliva during training. We recommend cleaning it daily, or even every use if you prefer. Do not put it in the dishwasher. The high heat cycle may damage the diaphragms and the dials and will void the warranty. Please wash it by hand in hot water with a small amount of mild dishwashing soap. Rinse your Breather well, shake off excess water, and air dry. If your Breather is thoroughly dried, it may be stored back in the package. Take note, the silicone diaphragms on the dials may stick from moisture build-up or after drying from cleaning. Simply set dials to setting 1, then breathe strongly through the device once to release the moisture seal. ## Features - STRENGTHENS RESPIRATORY FITNESS: Improves respiratory health and efficiency by promoting diaphragmatic (belly) breathing; strengthening both inhale and exhale muscles - INCREASES OXYGEN FLOW: Respiratory training naturally increases lung strength and capacity; improving oxygen uptake to vital organs and improving physical endurance - EASY AND CONVENIENT TO USE: Lightweight; portable; and comfortable design with adjustable and independent inspiratory and expiratory pressure settings; Easy to clean and maintain - DRUG-FREE THERAPY: Used by COPD; CHF; Dysphagia; and Neuromuscular disease patients to improve dyspnea; peak cough flow; laryngeal function; QOL; vent weaning; and speech and swallow performance - TRAINING INCLUDED: Online self-paced video protocol training for therapists; patients and consumers ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00FE8N7Y4 | | Batteries Included? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #47,218 in Health ( See Top 100 in Health ) #90 in Monitors | | Brand | The Breather | | Color | Blue | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (8,764) | | Date First Available | 18 November 2015 | | Drive System | Chain | | Features | Portable | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | BD12438 | | Manufacturer | The Breather | | Material Type | Plastic | | Number of Items | 1 | | Power Source | Pedal Powered | | Product Dimensions | 12.95 x 4.32 x 4.57 cm; 45 g | | Size | 1 Count (Pack of 1) | | Weight | 45 g | ## Product Details - **Brand:** The Breather - **Colour:** Blue - **Item weight:** 45 Grams - **Material:** Plastic - **Product dimensions:** 11D x 32.9W x 11.6H centimeters ## Images ![The Breather - Inspiratory/Expiratory Trainer - Breathing Training Exerciser - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611TsVfJ7XL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are there instructions for how long or often to use the device? If so, what is recommended?** A: Respiratory Muscle Training Target: 6 days a week----2 sessions per day (morning and evening)...2 sets of 10 breathes per session with a few minute rest between sets if needed. We always state to start at 1and 1 on the dial settings and increase weekly as tolerated. continue to use as directed, and you should be experiencing decreased dyspnea, increased O2 Saturations,better cough clearance, as well as better speech and swallow. Improved Quality of Life!!!! Your daily activities will improve due to the respiratory muscle strengthening and the strengthening of the diaphragm. THE KEY IS COMPLIANCE!!!!!! Don't ever give up- take it one day at a time, using The Breather will make a difference!!!!!!!!!!! --------- Susanne Summers, RRT, Clinical Specialist, PN Medical Makers of The Breather **Q: Is this the new design(2017)with the bigger mouthpiece and easy to turn dial as bob and brad mention in "simple breathing exercise for copd" video?** A: Yes, this is the device as seen on Bob and Brad. The device was redesigned and has a really comfortable mouthpiece for a good lip seal and it is especially good if you have a weak lip strength. The dials are very easy to turn and the settings are clearly market and nice and large so you can see the desired setting. The manufacturer, PN Medical has really good training videos on their website: www.pnmedical.com **Q: Is there resistance on each inhalation and each exhalation?** A: Yes, it have resistance. The breather have 5 levels. 5 levels for inhalation and 5 levels for exhalation. If you are in therapy, the therapist evaluated your performance and increase the level. Personally, my therapist start me at second level. After 2 1/2 months are in third level. Part of the routine using the breather is how many inhalations and exhalations doing in specific time. But is great. If your consistence, you will be feeling the increase of your respiration and better vocal respond. **Q: How does this compare to the Air Physio?** A: A slightly different device. But both are effective. I found the airphysio device very difficult to clean as the cap on the device was difficult to unscrew.
