We can check how good your breathing is by performing comprehensive breathing assessments in which we evaluate the following aspects of your breathing -

  • biomechanical,
  • biochemical,
  • physiological, and
  • psychological.

We use questionnaires, measure respiratory blood gases and lung function and apply techniques for evaluating breathing pattern and breathing control.
