Breathing Programs for Children

Why Nose Breathing Is Important For Your Child

If your child breathes mostly through the mouth the tongue will not be resting in the roof of the mouth. This will lead to a small upper jaw set back in the skull. Every time!

Dr. John Flutter provides a Postural Correction and Breathing Retraining Program for children.

In this program your child will learn:

• To breathe through the nose we need to learn to breath from the diaphragm.
• To establish good breathing from the diaphragm we need to learn to sit up straight and stand up straight.
• We teach exercises that will help most children and adults who mouth breathe, learn to breathe through the nose.
• There are many health benefits, apart from straight teeth, when nasal breathing is established.

Program for Young People:

• Five one hour lessons at the centre with a parent.
• Exercises at home every day for 12-16 weeks; about 15-20 minutes a day.
