What is The Breather?
The Breather is a handheld respiratory muscle training device designed to help train the muscles used for breathing in and breathing out. For voice professionals, that matters because breath control plays an important role in phrasing, stamina, vocal support, and performance consistency.
Why does respiratory muscle training matter for voice?
Voice depends on controlled airflow. Respiratory muscle training helps support the strength, coordination, and control needed for sustained phonation, pitch control, speech phrasing, and vocal endurance.
Who is The Breather relevant for?
The Breather may be relevant for singers, actors, speakers, teachers, voice students, SLPs, voice clinicians, and professionals who rely on breath control and vocal stamina.
Is The Breather for performance, clinical use, or both?
Both audiences find it useful for different reasons. Performers may be interested in breath support, stamina, range, and control. Clinicians may be interested in respiratory muscle training as part of a broader therapy, rehabilitation, or patient-support plan.
Is there research behind The Breather and Breather Voice?
Yes. Published research on respiratory muscle training has explored outcomes related to pitch range, phonation duration, sound generation, speech, swallowing, walking distance, blood pressure, and other areas of respiratory function. Results vary by study, population, training protocol, and individual use. Click here to see the evidence.
How long does someone typically use it each day?
Training is usually short, with significant results in just 10 minutes per day, and consistency matters. If you want guidance for your clinic, studio, program, or patient population, all you need to do is submit the form and our team can follow up with more specific information.
