Hello, Orla. I was concerned to hear this and so I checked your order and it looks like you selected to pay by bank transfer, which hasn't happened as yet, and is why you haven't received your order.

I will forward this on to Customer Service and ask them to contact you to see if you would prefer to pay by credit card instead. Please leave it with me for the time being, and look out for an email from POWERbreathe.

We are sorry to hear that you feel the Respiron device does not work, Mrs Compton. We are finding that users haven't realised that the device works by INHALING through it, as opposed to exhaling, and that it has 4 levels of resistance to work through, starting at level 0 (easy).

Respiron is a great respiratory muscle training device that can help to maintain lung function and strengthen your breathing muscles.

Here's a quick training protocol to help you get the most from your Respiron.

- Body position: you can train while sitting down or standing up.
- Training: hold your device and forcefully INHALE through the mouthpiece.
- Goal: to make the three coloured balls float.
- Training duration: try to repeat this a few times.

Repeating this breathing exercise daily is perfect for pulmonary rehabilitation and physiotherapy.

Respiron has 4 levels of resistance: 0 (easy); 1 (average); 2 (difficult) and 3 (very difficult). You should start at level 0 and advance to the next level when the exercise no longer challenges you.

We hope you find this helpful and thank you for getting in touch.

Breathing exercises.

A little too early on the device I purchased. But exercising my lungs must be helping so I'm looking forward to some improvement in my breathing.

Thank you, Mr Griffiths. It will take a little while to feel the training effect, so please stay with it. It's just like any other type of training, in that you need to do it regularly ;)

Great device

This device is very helpful to my lung condition, (once you get the knack of doing it correctly). Just read the instructions a few times then you get it. Delivery was very good and efficient.

Oh, that's wonderful to hear, Mrs Clarke. Thank you so much for letting us know.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Mrs Clarke and we're sorry to hear that you feel the device doesn't work.

The Respiron was reviewed independently in the Daily Mail, by a consultant chest physician who awarded it 9/10, as it is a great respiratory muscle training device for people with a weak diaphragm, helping to strengthen the breathing muscles and maintain lung function.

Did you adjust the resistance, as it's this that provides the challenge to your inspiration as you breathe in through the device? There are 4 levels for you to try, starting at 0, the easiest.

Here's a quick training protocol that may help:

- Body position: you can train while sitting down or standing up.
- Training: hold your device and forcefully INHALE through the mouthpiece.
- Goal: to make the three coloured balls float.
- Training duration: try to repeat this a few times.

Repeat this breathing exercise daily.

And remember that the Respiron has 4 levels of resistance: 0 (easy); 1 (average); 2 (difficult) and 3 (very difficult). You should start at level 0 and advance to the next level when the exercise no longer challenges you.

The power breathe was delivered within three days. It came with easy to follow instructions. I have been using it for nearly a month and can already feel an improvement in my breathing. I can feel the benefits already when out walking as do not get as much out of breath when tackling up hill paths.

Gosh, well done on your training which has clearly made a difference already! That is wonderful news. Thank you so much for sharing your review.

Not your fault at all

Not your fault at all, but unfortunately my husband's breathing problems are so bad that he is unable to complete the exercise. Sadly, the device is still in the box and is unused.

Oh, Beth, we're so sorry to hear this. We hope that a pulmonologist or other respiratory professional will be able to provide some therapy and help your husband breathe better.

That's wonderful to hear! Well done! The scientifically established protocol showed that when followed (30 breaths, twice a day), you should feel a difference in your breathing strength and stamina after 4-6 weeks, so you're spot on with your training. Thank you so much for sharing your review.

Thank you for your feedback Susan which I've forwarded to our Customer Service team who will resolve this for you, to save you from ringing in ;)

They've just acknowledged that replacement stickers have been sent out to you, and we apologise that they were missing. The stickers are placed within the user manual and can become mislaid when the instructions are unfolded.
