Breathe Better

Feel Better

Live Better

Breathing Rehab is a 6-week program designed to restore natural, efficient breathing for those struggling with asthma, COPD, dysfunctional breathing patterns, and more. Using targeted techniques and personalized assessments, this program retrains your respiratory system for improved health and overall wellbeing.

Program Features

Lasting Healthy Habits You'll Embrace

01

Functional Breathing Assessment

By gaining a clear understanding of how your respiratory system is functioning, we can identify the root causes behind any dysfunctional breathing patterns. Through a comprehensive assessment that evaluates lung function, respiratory muscle strength, and overall breathing mechanics, you'll discover targeted techniques to restore and optimize your breathing. This will help you achieve a more natural, efficient, and health-supportive breathing pattern.

03

Posture + Breathing Mechanics

Good posture and proper biomechanics significantly reduce strain on your respiratory muscles, allowing for more efficient breathing with less effort. By preventing over-reliance on accessory muscles, such as those in the neck and shoulders, you can minimize tension and fatigue. Through targeted exercises that address the fascial lines and biomechanics of the body, you’ll realign your posture, optimize breathing mechanics, and strengthen movement patterns that support better breathing. Abnormal breathing mechanics are one of the most significant risk factors for musculoskeletal issues, such as neck and lower back pain, making proper posture essential for overall health and quality of life.

 

02

Customized Breath Retraining

Dysfunctional breathing patterns can exacerbate lung conditions and negatively impact overall health. Through personalized, targeted exercises tailored to your unique needs, we aim to restore a more functional breathing pattern. This approach enhances oxygen delivery, reduces breathlessness, strengthens the respiratory muscles, and supports better function in key biological systems, including the cardiovascular, digestive, and nervous systems.

04

Stress Management + Relaxation Techniques

Breathing plays a critical role not only in physical health but also in managing stress and mental well-being. It’s your body’s primary tool for regulating the autonomic nervous system, which controls your fight-or-flight and rest-and-digest responses. By mastering relaxation techniques and controlling your breath, you can influence your body’s response to stress, improve heart rate variability (HRV)—a key indicator of your ability to manage stress and recover—and enhance resilience over time. This is especially important for individuals with conditions like asthma, COPD, or anxiety-driven breathing dysfunction, where managing stress and improving recovery are essential for long-term health and well-being.

Why Breathing Rehab?

We take around 20,000 breaths each day, yet few of us think about how we’re breathing. Breathing is our body’s most essential function, impacting not only the oxygen supply to our cells but also how we move, feel, and manage stress. When breathing becomes dysfunctional—whether from poor habits, lung conditions, or stress—it can create a ripple effect, contributing to fatigue, pain, anxiety, and even impaired recovery.

 

Functional breathing goes beyond just taking air in and out of the lungs. It optimizes oxygen delivery, enhances movement, supports the nervous system, and helps the body recover from stress. In fact, how you breathe can influence everything from your cardiovascular health and digestion to your posture and musculoskeletal pain.

Breathing Rehab addresses these core issues by retraining your breathing patterns to be more efficient, natural, and supportive of overall health. This program is designed to help you regain control over your breath—improving not only how you breathe but how you live.

6 Week Breathing Rehab Breakdown:

Week 1: Comprehensive Assessment & Baseline Testing

This week involves a full evaluation of your respiratory system, including lung function, respiratory muscle strength, and breathing mechanics. We’ll also test your HRV (Heart Rate Variability) to assess your autonomic nervous system's balance and response to stress. This baseline information will guide the rest of your program.

Weeks 2-3: Foundational Breath Retraining

You'll begin foundational breath retraining, focusing on restoring natural, efficient breathing patterns. We’ll introduce techniques to help regulate and balance your autonomic nervous system, which plays a crucial role in managing stress, promoting relaxation, and improving overall health

Weeks 4-5: Enhancing Breathing Efficiency & Building Resilience

During these weeks, you'll continue to improve your breathing efficiency, focusing on exercises that enhance oxygen delivery and make your breathing patterns more natural and effective. We'll also introduce techniques to help you manage stress better, strengthening your ability to stay calm and centered in challenging situations, while supporting overall health and recovery.

Week 6: Integration & Long-Term Strategy

In the final week, we’ll integrate all the techniques you’ve learned into a long-term strategy. You’ll develop a personalized plan for maintaining functional breathing, managing stress, and supporting your respiratory and overall health for the future.

Who Is Breathing Rehab For?

This program is designed for anyone who wants to improve their breathing, whether you're struggling with a diagnosed lung condition or simply seeking more control over your breath and health. It’s ideal for individuals with conditions like asthma, COPD, or dysfunctional breathing patterns, but it’s also highly beneficial for those dealing with stress, anxiety-driven breathlessness, or low energy.
 

Breathing is fundamental to your overall well-being, and by retraining your breath, you can improve oxygen delivery, reduce breathlessness, and boost both your physical and mental resilience. Whether you’re an athlete looking to enhance performance or someone dealing with daily breath-related challenges, Breathing Rehab will equip you with the tools to breathe better, feel better, and live better.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What is the cost?

The investment is $550.

Can this program help with anxiety-related breathing issues?

Yes, Breathing Rehab includes techniques to regulate the autonomic nervous system, helping you manage stress and anxiety by improving your ability to control and relax your breathing.

Do I need a diagnosed breathing condition to benefit from Breathing Rehab?

No, you don’t need a formal diagnosis to benefit from this program. While it’s designed for individuals with conditions like asthma, COPD, or other respiratory issues, anyone experiencing dysfunctional breathing patterns, unexplained breathlessness, or stress-related breathing problems can gain valuable skills.

Do I need any equipment for Breathing Rehab?

Most of the program’s exercises rely on body awareness, posture, and breathing techniques, so no special equipment is required. If any tools or aids are suggested, we’ll guide you through using them.

Is this Breathwork?

No, this is not what many people refer to as "breathwork." Instead, this program focuses on functional breathing or breath retraining. The goal is to restore healthy, efficient breathing patterns that support overall health, recovery, and performance. Rather than practicing intense breath techniques, you’ll be learning how to breathe optimally in everyday situations, whether you’re at rest, working out, or dealing with stress. This approach is rooted in science and tailored to your individual needs, aiming for long-term improvements in how you breathe, feel, and move.

How does Breathing Rehab differ from The Roadmap Program?

The Roadmap is a comprehensive 16-week journey designed to build the foundations of health, performance, and recovery by addressing key areas like breathing, movement, nutrition, and stress management. It’s aimed at those looking for a holistic approach to overall wellness and long-term health optimization as well as performance and recovery.

Breathing Rehab, on the other hand, is a focused 6-week program specifically targeting dysfunctional breathing patterns and lung conditions like asthma or COPD. It dives deeper into restoring natural, functional breathing through assessments, posture work, breath retraining, and stress management techniques to improve respiratory health and overall well-being
