Close Your Mouth: Buteyko Clinic Handbook for Perfect Health

This book should be in every GP surgery, in every respiratory physiotherapy clinic and read by every health professional. Why don't healthcare professionals know about this???? The technique is so effective and could be helping thousands of sufferers and literally transforming their daily lives, I feel a social responsibility to spread the word as much as possible. I have suffered with chronic hyperventilation and breathing pattern disorder for three years, to the extent that I just looked forward to going to bed to get some respite from scary, uncomfortable and exhausting breathing. I would feel like I could not get enough air into my body day in day out...within 2 days of reading this book and implementing the really simple techniques I felt like I could breathe again, and three weeks in, my health and quality of life have been completely transformed. I cannot thank the author enough for writing this book and sharing this wonderful, effective and powerful approach to breathing. It has given me my life back. If you are suffering, like I was, buy it, you will not regret it!

I've had rhinitis for the past 20 years and asthma for over 30 years, 10 years ago I completely lost my sense of smell. Last week I couldn't walk without stopping to gasp for air every few minutes. I've only had the book for 4 days and already it's made a massive difference to my breathing and this morning I can smell for the first time in 10 years. OMG this book is worth it's weight in gold.. Thanks so very much.

This is the first review I've ever written for a book on Amazon, and I've read a lot of books so that's saying something. I have suffered from nasal congestion for as long as I can remember. I transformed my diet, took my exercise seriously but still, I suffered a daily blocked nose and chronic congestion. A quick visit to the GP left me no closer to finding a sustainable solution and I predicted the end result would be the prescription of a steroid spray something I wanted to avoid. The exercises outlined in this book have provided me already with instant relief and the ability to breathe through my nose clearly without the use of any medicinal sprays. Every now and again you come across a book that you truly can't put a price on. This book is one of them. Absolute Gold.

this book is great book for anyone with breathing problems well worth buying highly recommend I started reading and finished it on the 2nd day I now read regular its like my user manual for the respiratory system I've improved my breathing in the first week I have asthma, emphysema ,C.O.P.D so whatever breathing problems you got this will help improve your breathing and overall health

I had to write this review because I have searched for years for a cure for my bad breathing, constantly needing to take a huge breath, sighing, yawning and generally feeling starved for air...and I have found it! This book is the answer to my prayers, it is easy to read, easy to follow and after just a couple of days of practising the breathing exercises I am getting some relief from this awful condition. I do not have asthma,I have chronic hyperventilation syndrome, and after reading the reviews of other sufferers of hyperventilation syndrome I gave it a go...and am I glad I did! The exercises are easy but slightly uncomfortable to begin with due to the feeling of being 'air hungry', but this is normal and it gets easier and less uncomfortable. I would recommend this book to anyone who is having breathing problems due to bad breathing habiys, stress or anxiety induced 'over breathing'. I have now ordered the DVD so I can complete my reversal of this horrible habit I have formed. If you too have struggled with this condition buy this book.
