COPD says the doctor. Have scripted inhaler daily. Am using this air physio for about 3+ weeks now.. went from twice a day to once a day. It has increased my ability to inhale to exhale more than twice the length of time for each occassion, from when I started. Do persevere up to 10 minutes until even harder sputum is coughed up. Yes I do recommend it.

I've got one. Just started using it about 3 days now. The video is helpful but maybe you could us a microphone to show people the noise it makes when you really get that ball bouncing. It's like a cat purring in slow motion. You can feel it down to your stomach. I usually feel it towards the end of my exhale. After a few tries I can make the vibration last longer. My oxygen level is usually at a 97-98%. Today 04/28/2023 I am a solid 98%. I'll edit this comment in a few weeks and let you know what happens. .... It's been two months and I have not been using it as much as I thought I would. Sporadically. I also have not noticed any changes. I would say inconclusive results. My oxygen level is, on average, 97 and still is 97. I'll try again to do it every morning.

@The Last Sifu it actually did. Just used it the way it says to. But after a while I just layed back in bed watching TV doing it. And that actually worked better. I'm still going for a chest scan because I occasionally now have the coughing out of no where. But sometimes it's food that triggers it. I was told you can get something similar to women's thrush, but in your chest that causes a itchy throat. I'm thinking it could be that.

@Deminimis2 2 ай бұрын

I just got this. I opened it up and dropped it on the carpet. I picked up the parts and put it back together again. I started blowing and sucking on it. After a while it strange that nothing happened. I then read the instructions and found out that there was a ball bearing. I looked around and found it on the floor. I installed the ball bearing and I started breathing in and out through my mouth. I did feel phlegm at the back of my throat and coughed it up. Still I thought that I wasn’t doing it right so I sought out videos. I will try the method in this video and see how it goes. But I was able to get some phlegm out earlier. I like that I can do it without any kind of meds.

When you are using this, at the recommended 45 degree angle, can you see the ball bearing well enough, so you know you are exhaling correctly? Seems yes, you could, however with a bit cross-eyed focusing. And doing that for 5 minutes, might create some dizziness (for me), maybe not for others. Has this symptom ever come up in reviews from your customers? Thank you.

@janined5784 7 ай бұрын

Yes, it can make you feel light-headed if you go at it too hard. Just trial and error really. Just breathe normally for a few breaths without using the Air Physio, and that symptom should vanish. Also, you don't actually need to see the ball bearing moving, you can hear it clacking up and down as well as feel the vibration of it.

@ajnazatahm 7 ай бұрын

You can’t really see it that well even when it’s positioned correctly. You feel it physically and hear the way the ball makes a fluttering sound. Dizziness isn’t unusual, but it means you should take your breath in, wait for some of the oxygen to actually absorb, and then exhale through the device. Dizziness is just you not getting enough oxygen in. Take a break and breath normally till it goes away.

@sandrabyrne9061 7 ай бұрын

Forgive me for being dumb. May I clarify. It is the breathing OUT that is the way it works? It is not like an inhaler which works when you breathe IN the chemical in it. Pleat clarify. Many thanks.
