| "I suffered exercise induced asthma for about three years, relying on medication every time I participated in sport. After attending Viv's course and doing the exercises at home, I no longer use any medication at all. I feel awesome." Emily, Nelson student |
| “If you have resigned yourself its a life of medication and drugs. This method lets you take control of your asthma instead of the other way around. I recommend this to anyone whose life is affected by asthma.” |
| "I recommend anyone with asthma to enrol on a Buteyko program - I have found that by the end of the course I can control an attack through Buteyko breathing without need of my ventolin inhaler and indeed through doing the exercises each day the symptoms have reduced and almost gone away - certainly hopeful that they will - every confidence - everything makes sense - diet - way of life - triggers - excercises - very enthusiastic - THANK YOU!" |
| "I wanted to see if Buteyko could help me with my allergies. I attend the course with Viv and learnt some great techniques that have really helped my sinus condition. This method is wonderful because you can use it anywhere, anytime." |
| “I hated taking Ventolin 3 times daily and it was worrying me that my Ventolin use was increasing. Started the Buteyko course very skeptical as to whether I was wasting my money. I found no immediate results, unlike others on my course but after doing 4 weeks of the breathing exercises and following the Buteyko rules, I now have no asthma and haven’t done since 4 weeks after the course.” |
| "I snored for years and had just been diagnosed with the early signs of sleep apnoea. Thanks to the Buteyko Method I've now stopped snoring and get a full night's sleep." |
| "I still take a preventer regularly but simply do not need so much reliever. I have not had prednisone since learning Buteyko. I sleep better, my pulse rate has dropped 10-12 beats on a regular basis, and I feel well. Buteyko has made a huge difference to my rugby. I can prepare and play without worrying that asthma will prevent me from playing to my full potential". |
