The 3-ball spirometer is a helpful device designed to improve breathing strength and lung capacity. It encourages slow, deep breaths by lifting three small balls inside a chamber—making the exercise both visual and engaging.
✨ Benefits for elders:
• Helps prevent lung complications (like pneumonia)
• Improves oxygen intake
• Strengthens respiratory muscles
• Supports recovery after illness or surgery
🫁 How to use:
Sit upright and hold the spirometer at eye level
Seal lips tightly around the mouthpiece
Inhale slowly and deeply—try to raise the balls one by one
Hold your breath for a few seconds, then exhale
Repeat as advised by a healthcare provider
💡 Tip: Encourage regular use (e.g., 5–10 breaths every hour while awake) for best results.
Small breaths can make a big difference. Let’s help our elders breathe easier, one inhale at a time 🌿
