What is Classical Buteyko Method?
The Buteyko Method was developed in the 1950’s by a Russian medical scientist named Professor K.P. Buteyko.
Professor Buteyko’s exhaustive research led him to discover, that several hundred chronic diseases could be scientifically explained as a consequence of habitually breathing above the physiologically recommended norm, or chronic hyperventilation.
After years of experimentation, Professor Buteyko managed to develop a process to normalise the breathing pattern, which has over the last 60+ years enabled tens of thousands of people to reverse their chronic diseases. This system or approach has become known as The Buteyko Method.
What is the evidence that supports Buteyko Method?
clinical trials
Two clinical trials were performed in Russia over patients with different chronic disorders with positive results, in 1968 and 1980. In 1998 the first clinical trial for Buteyko Method outside Russia was published in Australia. The results of the study reports a reduction of 90% of bronchodilators and 50% of corticosteroids in a population of severe asthmatics. One of our senior practitioners, Christopher Drake, was involved in the design and implementation of the study. Below you can download the full paper (Bowler SD, Green A, Mitchell CA. Buteyko breathing techniques in asthma: a blinded randomised controlled trial. Med J Aust. 1998 Dec 7-21;169):
These results inspired some comments in the specialized press:
"Buteyko breathing hyperventilation excercises in patients with asthma reduced beta agonist use by 90% and improved symptoms, according to preliminary result of a randomised, controlled trial in Brisbane."
"Doctors Gasp at Buteyko Success" by Tony James, Front Page of "Australian Doctor", 7/4/95
"Unprecedented broad spectrum results in the short and medium term, a dynamic breakthrough."
The Medical Journal of Australia, 2nd January, 1995, Vol. 162, No. 1
