Great for strengthening lungs
I have blood pressure issues, and using this a couple of times a day really helps. It’s very easy to use.

It is working!
I bought this one to try out my sleeping disorder. It truely changed my snoaring after one week training. Unbelievable! This one is way better than thousands of $ I have spent "medically". So I bought two more this time for my brothers to try!!!!

Deep breathing reminder!
Needed to exercise my diaphragm to improve my breathing. This is ok. It is a reminder to practice, though it is easy enough to practice correct breathing without it. It does remind me to practice!

I am a believer in The Breather
I'm 65 and have asthma and was coming off a pretty severe exacerbation following an upper respiratory infection that went off the rails for me. I ordered the device after reading some research on Respiratory Muscle Training. I received the Breather device, downloaded the app, and did the Phonation pretest, and I could sustain the tone for only 21 seconds. Then I used it morning and evening faithfully for the first month on the "Strengthening" plan -- 10 reps followed by a minute of times rest and 10 more reps, as guided by the app timer. At the end of the plan, I repeated the test and could sustain the tone for 33 seconds. Not long at all if you are a singer -- but for someone with respiratory compromise coming off an exacerbation, I was really proud of my improvement and can't wait to share it with my pulmonologist. I am now doing the "Endurance" plan, which requires me to do 30 breath cycles with no break. I lowered the resistance setting just a bit -- and it is a bit of a challenge, but I can do it.There is good video on the app to explain clearly how to use the device. I had not issues with the app at all. (I have an android phone.) It is extremely helpful for me to not only hear the prompt but to see the animation that reminds you to fully inflate and empty your lungs. One nice unexpected side effect is that my lower abs are much more engaged all the time now -- since using the device correctly requires me to really isolate those muscles that pull the diaphragm down to inflate my lungs. I feel like my lungs are stronger now and if I were to get another infection, I think my cough would be stronger and more efficient.If you have lung issues and your doctor is on board, I'd encourage you to consider trying the Breather.

Expensive little gadget.
Works fine. VERY EXPENSIVE for what you get. Didn’t use it until after the return date had passed or would have returned.

Great product
Great product! I love everything about it, quality, function, additional tutorials on how to utilize the breather, and track your progress. I would highly recommend it for those who are in postoperative treatment as well as for those who have respiratory issues like COPD, accessive mucus production ( to move the mucus up in case the microvilli are destroyed or impaired in function), for those who recently quit smoking (great product to train and expand the lung’s capacity). Overall I am happy with my purchase

Huge turnaround with The Breather
Background:In the past I've experienced low level asthma infrequently, just occasionally having to do deep breathing to make it go away, and just causing issues for an hour or two. Also, my doctor told me a year ago that I'm borderline on the spirometry test.Then a few weeks ago I started having asthma attacks that wouldn't fully go away, leaving me with a tight chest and repeated attacks, including waking me up at night. Finally went to the doctor and got two puffers - the one that helped was the twice-daily one with corticosteroids. However after a couple of weeks I wasn't completely asthma-free and was worried I'd be stuck on medications permanently.Happening now:I bought the "The Breather" about 10 days ago - it is amazing! First of all, the asthma attacks are gone, despite the fact I am weaning myself quickly off the corticosteroids. (Maybe too fast, but so far ok. Not recommending the speed for others who may have long-term issues.)This is such a clever device, with separate settings for breathing in and breathing out. The idea is to go up a level each week, if possible. The online videos show how to breathe, and at what pace to breathe in and out. I would recommend watching several of their interesting videos before getting going.I did level 1 easily for a few days, now on level 2. (The levels go up to 5 and 6 respectively.) Am doing well on 2, but definitely feel the effort. Will be very interested to see how easy/hard it will be to graduate to level 3 next week. I will do each level as long as needed to be ready for the next step. These exercises are strengthening the breathing muscles, so it seems like it will be important to make this a part of daily life always. (Besides I feel really good after the exercises - maybe hadn't been getting enough oxygen before?!) No more asthma, but when I even feel chest tightness, doing another set of exercises makes it go away. I'll report back in a month or two on how it is going.Update 04/09/20: graduated to level 3 and doing well on it. Tried to go to 4 but found it too difficult. However there is enough resistance at 3 to feel there has been real progress. Will try 4 again in a few weeks!Update 05/09/20: just today tried level 4 again. Takes more effort till I get used to it. Inhale is easier, so starting there and will move exhale to 4 in a few days. This little device has been a life-saver for me. Now that I know "how" to breathe, I can also do the pursed-lip method of breathing in and out any time I feel my chest start to tighten. (No more asthma.) Am also working on making my nose-breathing deeper. Lastly I recently bought the Mibest pulse oximeter and was amazed to discover that how I breathe can change the reading from borderline 95 to 98 and up! So the goal is to get my normal nose-breathing to be deeper without my thinking about it. (Use oximeter on middle finger of dominant hand.)
