Breathe and Go lung exerciser is helping Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) sufferers build breathing muscles
Breathe and Go lung exerciser
Medical experts say lung exercise is one of the best methods of pulmonary rehabilitation for those with mild and moderate COPD. Pulmonary rehabilitation helps build the muscles required to breathe.
As users breathe out through the mouthpiece of the Breathe and Go lung exerciser a small steel ball vibrates against a valve causing the lungs to vibrate. This vibration effect helps loosen mucus build up in the lungs.
Breathing through the device also helps to expand the lungs and improve respiratory capacity.
Peter Crawford of Breathe and Go said: “One of the main reasons why it is so important for COPD sufferers to maintain lung health is because there is unfortunately no cure for this debilitating lung disease.
“The healthier one can maintain their lung function, the less likely one will suffer from the common health problems of COPD, like lung infections, pneumonia, shortness of breath and difficulty breathing.”
