Weekly report
Last week, we talked about the Pursed lip breathing, which is the most common breathing excersise to control the short of breath. Besides the Pursed lip breathing,the other technique that your doctor may teach you is diaphragmatic breathing.
Diaphragmatic breathing is done by contracting the diaphragm, a muscle located horizontally between the chest cavity and stomach cavity. Air enters the lungs and the belly expands during this type of breathing.This deep breathing is marked by expansion of the abdomen rather than the chest when breathing. It is considered by some to be a healthier way to breathe, and is considered by some a useful form of complementary and alternative treatment.
