Incentive Spirometer VS. The Breather

The Breather is a respiratory muscle trainer. As you breathe in and out of the Breather, it functions as a therapeutic exerciser for the lungs and breathing muscles.

An incentive Spirometer reminds you to take in a deep breath and some even use it as a tool to measure their gross lung volumes. However, while Incentive Spirometry encourages deep breathing, there is no resistance to the intake of air through the device, so it does not strengthen the respiratory muscles.

What is the difference between The Breather and an inspiratory muscle training (IMT) device?

The primary difference is that The Breather is both an inspiratory and expiratory muscle trainer. The combination of both IMT and EMT has been demonstrated to be more effective than just one alone.

The Breather is also highly customizable. With 6 inhalation and 5 exhalation settings, The Breather can be finely attuned to each patient's needs.
