As a result of exercises, the child can faster manage the blocked nose and the problems with it are much easier. One more advantage is that I can spend more time with the child

Help in the treatment of bronchial asthma. The attacks are almost gone, her well-being is better. With thanks
Anya Krivets, 7 years
My daughter had the treatment. She was diagnosed with asthmatic bronchitis. We contacted the Clinic after a very severe attack. During the treatment we have never had any symptoms of the disease. The drugs were not used.
Many thanks to all staff of the Clinic and personally to Lyudmila Dmitrievna Buteyko for hope, that the life can be lived without drugs, and for confidence, that the diseases are preventable using a very simple and, at the same time, unique Buteyko method.
Nikita Kim, 4 years; bronchial asthma:
I treated my son Nikita. I have been very glad with results literally from the first days of the treatment. It was pleasure to experience informal attitude of the doctors and staff. Special regards to Lyudmila Dmitrievna Buteyko. I wish you success in your noble business.
For more than 15 years the Buteyko Clinic is the only medical centre in Moscow, which officially uses the Buteyko method for treatment of bronchial asthma, bronchitis, various allergies, pneumonia, chronic rhinitis, hypertension, stenocardia, and some other diseases and symptoms.

Russian born Dr. Andrey Novozhilov MD, author of this book, graduated at the First Moscow Medical Institute now called the Moscow Medical Academy.
As a nine year old boy he twice witnessed his mother experience clinical death as a result of severe asthma attacks. When Professor Buteyko visited her for therapy for her asthma, he taught Andrey how to treat his mother with the Buteyko method since she could not understand the Professor.
Andrey started to treat asthma with the Buteyko Method at the age of nine. For the past 33 years his mother has been completely free of asthma. After completing his studies at the First Moscow Medical Institute in 1989, he worked as a therapist and general practitioner at the Buteyko Clinic in Moscow.
He is currently Head Physician and author of the Buteyko practitioner's training programs at the Buteyko Clinic.
Dr. Novozhilov is Head Physician at the Buteyko Clinic in Moscow. As part of Professor Buteyko's family and clinical staff, and with years of experience in teaching the method, he has developed a rare understanding which he brings to this book.
Additionally, it has been beautifully crafted with colour illustrations created by Victor, who has provided his work entirely voluntarily as part of his ongoing commitment to the greater understanding of the therapy that has so changed his own life.
This book is intended to be used as a supplement to the care given by a Buteyko practitioner. It explains the variations of the Buteyko exercises in exquisite detail, providing you with the subtleties in breathing retraining necessary for you to regain your health.
In addition, it has an essential guide to the safe and effective use of steroids in asthma.
Professor Buteyko has endorsed this book in the foreword he provided. This book is the ultimate source for how to do the Buteyko exercises.
