Patrick McKeown is a former chronic asthmatic who went on to become one of the very few accredited Buteyko practitioners in Britain. The Buteyko breathing method is the single most effective self-help treatment for asthma and can be used by adults and children.
With the programme, asthma sufferers can:
• stop persistent attacks and coughing
• reduce their dependency on medication
• unblock nose naturally with a simple exercise
• prevent attacks during sports
• explain breathing exercises to a child
• learn about diet, sleeping and other lifestyle factors
Patrick McKeown, BA, MA (tdc)dip. Buteyko, was a chronic asthmatic for most of his life. When he applied the Buteyko breathing method, he freed himself from his asthma condition. As a qualified Buteyko practitioner, he is now just one of a few Western experts accredited and authorised by Prof Konstantin Buteyko to teach this method. His three clinics – Asthma Care – are in Dublin, Galway and Cork . His clinics and work have been featured on a huge amount of Irish media.
