Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) - The Breather
We have teamed up with PN Medical to provide patients the best Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) devices. RMG now sells "The Breather", the first drug free, evidenced-based Inspiratory/Expiratory RMT device.
This device is used by Respiratory and Neuromuscular disease patients. The clinical benefits of RMT include improved dyspnoea, peak cough flow, laryngeal function, QOL, vent weaning, and speech and swallow performance.
The Breather is a respiratory device that applies respiratory muscle training against resistance by breathing through different sized orifices, thereby increasing respiratory muscle strength.
