Pursed Lip Breathing
for Wheezing
Breathing in through the nose and out slowly through pursed lips to slow breathing rate and reduce airway collapse.
How it works
Pursed lip breathing creates back pressure that keeps airways open and slows respiratory rate reducing the work of breathing.
What to watch for
Useful for COPD and asthma. Can be practised regularly and used during episodes.
