Buteyko Breathing Technique: Overview, Benefits, and Effectiveness

Any practice that involves conscious, focused breathing is a form of breathwork. For centuries, various forms of breathwork have been used to help people heal, reduce stress, and promote personal development.

The Buteyko breathing technique, also referred to as the Buteyko method, or BBT, is an alternative therapeutic approach that involves reducing the number of breaths per minute by slowing down inhalations and breathing through the nose.
