Breath Classes for Patients

Breath classes can be organised for medical practice clinic patients who are;

  • Querying independent treatment and want to know more or
  • Not able to attend larger pulmonary classes because of chronicity issues, or
  • As a precursor to attend an 8-12-week rehabilitation programs as an outpatient

These classes can be held at the practice so patients are familiar with the environment and feel more confident to attend what may be their first attendance at a health education class / group.
