Asthma Management by the Buteyko Institute Method (BIM)

Description

Buteyko breath correction practitioners teach the Buteyko Institute Method (BIM). The BIM is a program of simple breathing exercises and life style guidelines used to correct and alleviate the symptoms of asthma and other breathing related disorders. It is based on the work of Professor Konstantin Buteyko from Russia, and is taught by BIM Practitioners accredited by the Buteyko Institute of Breathing and Health Inc. (BIBH). Significant features of the BIM are that it is:

• Effective – most course participants reduce asthma reliever medications by 90% within one week.
• Clinically proven – The BIM is clinically proven in the management of asthma. In clinical trials those practicing the BIM reduced their reliever medication by>85% and preventer medication by >50% (Bowler et al 1998 MJA; McHugh et al 2003 NZMJ).
• Safe - the BIBH follows international best practice asthma medication guidelines.
• Medically based - based on the standard medical principles of respiration, the normalisation of breathing and the Bohr Effect.

Outcomes

• Significant reduction or elimination of asthma reliever and preventer medications (reduction of preventer medication is done in consultation with the client’s medical practitioner).
• Significant reduction or elimination of asthma symptoms. The BIM is effective and relief from other respiratory disorders.
• Increased stamina and energy levels, better work performance, improved sleep, and better management of the symptoms of stress.
