In this episode, we break down two often-overlooked tools that can make a real difference in asthma control and breathing strength: spacers and breathing resistance devices.
🔹 Why spacers matter:
➡️ Without a spacer, only ~10% of inhaled medication reaches the lungs
➡️ With a spacer, delivery can jump to ~25%
➡️ Better medication delivery = better asthma control
➡️ Bonus: spacers reduce side effects like oral thrush from inhaled steroids
🔹 What about lung-strengthening devices?
These resistance-breathing tools don’t “grow” new lungs — but they train the diaphragm, just like a muscle.
✔️ Especially helpful after illness, ICU stays, or COVID
✔️ Can improve breathing strength and endurance
✔️ Wind instrument players are living proof: stronger diaphragms = better lung performance
🎧 Tune in to learn how small adjustments can lead to easier breathing and better long-term lung health.
