Inspiratory muscle training with the Classic device leads to improved breathing stamina and wellness as well as reduced breathing fatigue. It does this by creating a resistance to your in-breath using a precisely calibrated, spring loaded ‘pressure threshold’ valve. The training is similar to weightlifting. With 9 adjustable levels, you can increase the resistance of the breathing device as you improve your breathing strength.

The POWERbreathe Wellness is the ideal inspiratory muscle training (IMT) device for people with very weak diaphragms who wish to increase their breathing strength in a drug-free, gradual way.
The Wellness IMT device provides resistance to your in-breath, causing your inspiratory muscles to work harder. When the inspiratory muscles are ‘overloaded’ regularly in this way, they adapt and become stronger and more resistant to fatigue. Activating stronger inspiratory muscles requires less effort during a given task, reducing laboured breathing. Over time, you will build up inspiratory breathing strength and stamina. This can ease breathing issues.
Drug-free Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) is useful in conditions where breathing feels difficult. This drug-free Wellness IMT breathing device has no side effects or drug interactions. It can therefore be used with or without supervision, and can be easily used straight out of the box.
9 adjustable load settings – The POWERbreathe Wellness provides an introductory level of load setting (weight lifted) in increments from 10cmH2O to 90cmH2O.The range between each training level is quite small which means that as your breathing muscles become stronger and you move up one of the training levels by increasing the resistance, this small increase in cmH2O makes it more manageable.
