How does this compare to the "Aerobika" device?
The aerobica is an oscillating device. It’s purpose is to shake loose secretions. The breather is a complementary product as it strengthens your respiratory muscles giving you a strong cough reflex. It’s critical that you shake loose and expectorate those secretions. The Breather gives your muscles the strength to do so. It also contributes to a better distribution of inhaled medications.

Could you compare/contrast with the EMST150?
Devices that provide EMT only, which are predominantly used for cough, airway clearance and swallow problems (EMST-150, Resistex), fail to address the importance of the inspiratory muscles for these functions. While EMT has a beneficial effect on ...
How does the Breather differ from a Peak Flow Device?
The peak flow meter measures the airflow through the bronchi and thus the degree of obstruction in the airways. Readings from a peak flow meter can help one to recognize early changes that may be signs of worsening asthma. The breather however, is a ...
How does the Breather differ from a CPAP device?
PAP (positive airway pressure) devices mobilize secretions, reduce air trapping or prevent or reverse atelectasis. PAP applies positive pressure, keeping the airways open to prevent and potentially reverse atelectasis - RMT devices do not do that and ...
