 I have read for the first time about K.P. Buteyko's invention in an old lecture on January 27, 1988. Much to my surprise I discovered that the deep breathing which had been propagated for years was considered wrong and the cause of my illness was nothing else but deep breathing. In June of the same year I was walking holding my breath in Buteyko’s “Breathing” centre Academ- Gorodok in Novosibirsk. There were lists fixed everywhere on the walls with the message “Deep breathing is a death”. Examining the voluntary elimination method of deep breathing in his own organism and healing himself from the following diseases: Hypertonia of bad quality and chronic Pielonefrit, Buteyko was the first to come to the conclusion that during the hyperventilation of lungs the link between the oxygen(O2) and the Hemoglobin becomes strong. The transition of O2 to the cells of the brain, the heart, the kidneys and the other organs becomes difficult, although the circulating blood has a great wealth of O2 an oxygen starvation is developing in the tissues, a spasm of bronchial tubes begins as well as a rank of diseases connected with the constriction of the arteries. Buteyko was saying “We are all suffering from a disease, the deep breathing disease, which has about 150 symptoms and which can possibly be eliminated by normalizing voluntarily the breathing function.” Buteyko’s method has already passed its experimental way and its history of about 53 years has confirmed the efficiency of its treatment and the fact of its being harmless. At present such diseases as obstructive chronic lung diseases and especially bronchial asthma have increased. The necessity of continuous treatment leads to the increase of the side effect of medicine on the organism which makes worse the state of the patient and raises the financial expenses of the treatment. The way out is the use of non medicinal efficient means. The treatment by Buteyko’s method is a key to the solution of the problem which will enable us to control the illness with the minimum quantity of medicine or without it. In December 1997 a positive answer was given to the application about the contribution of Buteyko’s method of “Voluntary elimination of deep breathing” in Armenia by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Armenia. |
