| | Buteyko Method and Allergies: People's Stories | Allergies can affect anyone. Prince Charles of Wales is a famous case. His allergies were so severe that he is reported to have developed symptoms around the horses he rode and even his own parade uniform. Like many people, he tried to control his symptoms using prescription medications and alternative medicine.
Nothing worked and his symptoms persisted. In 1999, on the recommendation of his personal physician, he invited Konstantin and Ludmila Buteyko to help him. After learning how to reduce his breathing, Prince Charles stopped being affected by allergies. Since that time, the Prince's Foundation for Integrated Health promotes the Buteyko Breathing Technique, a natural and holistic cure for allergies. | |

Charles LaBarre had been searching for advanced allergy treatments for years. As an acupuncturist and allergy specialist, Charles had seen it all - from the latest pharmaceuticals to advanced computer programs, and the many forms of alternative medicines. He ended up using a sophisticated software, which helps to detect a specific allergen; then people are supposed to avoid it but it is not an easy task. In 2009 Charles heard that the Buteyko Center USA offered an innovative allergy treatment, a natural and holistic cure for allergies. Of course, he had to check it out. Doing most of his work in Woodstock, NY Charles was curious about his "competitors," especially competitors who provided a drug-free allergy treatment.
Charles began taking educational courses at the Buteyko Center right away. Here he learned that specific allergens are not important from the perspective of the Buteyko Method; all allergies go away when a person stops overbreathing. Thrilled by the Buteyko Method's effectiveness, Charles now works as a Buteyko Specialist concentrating on allergies. | |

| | How The Buteyko Method Can Get Rid of Allergies: | Medical doctors and scientists have been unable to determine what causes allergies in the first place. They agree that allergies are an incorrect reaction of the immune system (a reaction to external stimulus such as pollen, dust, pets, and other things commonly found in our environment). They also know how to control this reaction using medication, but without knowing what causes the immune system to react incorrectly in the first place, medical doctors currently cannot stop or cure allergies. |
| K. Buteyko believed that allergies are caused by overbreathing. In his medical practice and research, he found that all people suffering from allergies have one thing in common - hyperventilation. Over-breathing leads to a CO2 deficit in the lungs. This deficit negatively influences metabolism because CO2 is an important component of metabolism. A dysfunctional metabolism will weaken the immune system and create incorrect responses to environmental stimulus. |
However, when breathing is normalized both metabolism and the immune system are restored to proper functioning. The result: a person stops experiencing allergies.
The Buteyko Method is an effective tool for treating any form of allergies. It is natural, drug-free, safe and without side-effects. It is truly a holistic method, which has a strong positive impact on overall health. In the case of allergies, within a short period of time the Buteyko Method will significantly reduce symptoms or eliminate them completely. Stop your allergies!

| What are the Buteyko Breathing Exercises? The Buteyko breathing exercises are the core of the Buteyko Method, which is a drug-free, holistic technique for the treatment of asthma, allergies and breathing difficulties, as well as many other diseases. The exercises were developed by Dr. Konstantin Buteyko (1923-2003). Many clinical trials have shown that Buteyko breathing exercises can safely reduce allergies symptoms and the need for medication and also greatly increase the overall quality of life. The Buteyko breathing exercises are most successful when tailored to the client’s individual medical condition and rate of improvement. It is strongly recommended to use the breathing exercises only under the supervision of a certified Buteyko Practitioner. |
I wake up every morning with a stuffy nose; will this method help me? Yes. By making your nose stuffy, your organism protects itself from over-breathing: it simply narrows air channels. We will teach you how to reduce your breathing and that will eliminate the cause of your problem. Aside from that, you will learn a special technique, which Dr. Buteyko developed for clearing nasal passages. You can use it any time you feel a need to unblock your nose. It is a gentle technique and, unlike many others, does not cause additional hyperventilation and mucus creation. |
Breathing difficulties: can the Buteyko Method help? Absolutely! Dr. Konstantin Buteyko’s discovery and cure both revolve around balancing the body’s use of oxygen and carbon dioxide. It is the imbalance of these two elements that causes the reactions of the body, which, in turn, create the majority of breathing difficulties we experience. By applying the Buteyko Method properly, the system balance is restored and breathing difficulties are defeated.
There is more information on this subject in the book Asthma Cure Manual by Dr. A. Novozhilov. This book is written for people with asthma and other breathing difficulties. The book is available in our store to download and in paper format. Back to Top |
