The workshop title is: Snoring – sleep apnoea – asthma – crooked teeth... What’s the link?

Glenn will explain the connection between mouth-breathing, over-breathing and craniofacial development, and how poor breathing habits can contribute to asthma and other respiratory disorders. 

The workshop will help participants identify actionable approaches for improving breathing pattern in clients with asthma.

Upcoming School Holiday Programme

ASB Sports Centre, WellingtonTeaching children good oral posture, nasal breathing and diaphragm breathing early in life helps the jaw to develop correctly with natural wide dental arches and plenty of space for growing teeth. This ensures the best chance for straight uncrowded teeth. Other benefits include fewer dental caries and less likelihood of enlarged adenoids, glue ear and tonsillitis. The incidence of respiratory infections and respiratory disorders is also significantly reduced. Nose breathing and good tongue posture are also shown to reduce bedwetting.

It’s not too late to enrol your child in our October school holiday programme.

Monday, 29th September – Thursday, 2nd October
(11:00am – 12:00pm or 3:00pm – 4:00pm daily)

Hay Fever Hell – How to beat it

Hayfever image

In the Spring 2014 issue of 'Allergy Today' we are told that up to 80 percent of people with asthma have allergic rhinitis.

What if the symptoms of allergies and hay fever could be relieved by simply changing the way you breathe? In other words, learning to breathe the way we are supposed to breathe.

According to Ministry of Health Mortality Data there were 79 asthma deaths in 2006, 61 in 2007 and 65 in 2008. We believe many of these deaths could be avoided with increased awareness about breathing techniques for controlling asthma and proper use of preventer medication.
