Introduction to Breathing Exercises
Breathing exercises are an important part of COVID-19 recovery if your lung function or exercise tolerance was impacted by the virus.
Supine Belly Breathing
Stress and illness can affect how we breathe, impacting our digestion, cardiac and pulmonary function, nervous system and overall health. Luckily, we can control how and where we breathe in our bodies to change this.
Seated Pursed Lip Breathing
Pursed lip breathing is a technique that makes breathing easier and more effective and can resolve shortness of breath caused by exercise or increased activity.
Seated Stacked Breathing
Stacked breathing is a technique to increase the size of the breath you are able take in. It can also improve the strength of your voice and your cough, so you can better clear out the lungs, as well as your lung flexibility.
