Buteyko is a breathing technique used specifically by people who suffer with Asthma and other Respiratory problems. The technique got its unique name from its inventor, a Ukraine doctor called Konstantin Pavlovich Buteyko.
Buteyko has been proven to be affective and helped many people reduce other forms of medication.

Breathing and the heartOur breathing pattern has profound effects on the heart. In fact, about a century ago western doctors developed and studied the science which was called "cardiorespiratory physiology". Why? Because of the close connections between cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Yale University Professor Yandell Henderson (1873-1944) was |

Breathing and oxygenation in healthy and sick peopleIf you observe modern exercising people, you will see that over 97% of them breathe through the mouth. Is this a problem? Breathing is about oxygenation of tissues. Hence, let us consider oxygenation and breathing in health and disease.Clinical evidence clearly |

|
Breathing and the brainOur breathing pattern has profound effects on the brain. Unnoticeable changes in breathing (when we believe that our breathing is OK) can reduce oxygenation and blood supply by 20-30%. How should we breathe, day and night, so that to have maximum oxygenation of the brain? |
| Severe Cough Means Reduced Oxygen Content In Tissues
|
|
Clinical reflections of many hundred Russian medical doctors propose that reoccuring issues with cough occur only in individuals with lower oxygen content in cells and organs. Consider these important scientific findings in more detail. We can take first step with popular knowledge about the mechanism that creates severe |
| How to prevent mouth breathing during the night
|
|
Mouth breathing drastically reduces body oxygenation: the amount of freely available oxygen in tissues is usually reduced almost two times when the person starts to breathe through the mouth, for example, during sleep. Epidemiological studies clearly proved that deaths from heart attacks, asthma, COPD, epilepsy, complications of diabetes, |
| Simple Breathwork to Unblock the Stuffy Nose
|
|
Thousands of Soviet and Russian patients with asthma and other conditions have used this simple breathing exercise to clear their stuffy nose. The technique was developed by Russian doctors practicing the Buteyko self-oxygenation breathing technique. Over 150 MDs explained this breath work practice to their patients. In most |

ObservationsBeing upright is and was the most natural body position. This was the norm during almost the entire history of humanity. Standing also was the norm in factories, plants, shops and offices up to the beginning of the 20th century. Most modern people prefer to sit. Moreover, we |

Cancer patients suffer from insomnia and problems with sleep. This link is well documented in recent medical stuides (Berger et al, 2009; Hearson-Sawatzky, 2008; Lee, 2004; Roscoe et al, 2007; Sateia et al, 2008). Progression of cancer further impairs sleeping problems. Cancer sleep and cancer insomnia can become |

If we consider automatic breathing patterns in sick people with various health problems, virtually all health conditions are characterized by ineffective breathing. Generally, many people know that people with asthma, COPD, panic/anxiety and cardiovascular diseases breathe too fast and inhale too much air even at rest while sitting. |

| Low body oxygenation is the main factor of poor fertility in males
|
|
Usually, various modern medical and alternative sources suggest that zinc, arginine and protein intakes are the main factors in fertility of males. However, body oxygenation plays even a more important role. Oxygen content in tissues can be found using a simple stress-free breath holding time test. (The person |
| Stress-free breath holding time predicts health of HIV/AIDS patients
|
|
Clinical evidence, as well as physiological studies, found that progression of the disease in HIV patients is manifested in reduced oxygenation of the body. Dozens of studies revealed such negative effects of hypoxia, as chronic fatigue, poor sleep, psychological disturbances, mouth breathing, inability to exercise, and sexual dysfunction. |
| Which exercise parameters increase body oxygenation
|
|
Dozens of published medical studies clearly proved that body oxygenation, which is reflected by stress-free breath-holding time, is the best indicator of physical health. Among numerous varieties of the breath holding time test, the stress-free version of the test done after usual exhalation, most accurately reflects body oxygenation. |

The exercise was used by over 200 Soviet and Russian doctors who have been practicing the Buteyko breathing self-oxygenation method. They taught it to many thousands of people. The exercise helps, in most cases, to stop asthma attacks without using bronchodilators. (I translated many Russian medical papers.)Practical actionsSit |
