In search of better breathing

With Breath Tools, Eric Harbour provides consultancy and coaching services to monitor and improve breathing during sport.

While the heart and muscles get much of the attention, athletes frequently suffer from breathing difficulties during sport. Coaches and support staff rarely have the knowledge available to help; even medical doctors frequently misdiagnose sport-related respiratory conditions.

Novel wearable technologies provide accurate, mobile solutions to screening and monitoring breathing problems and interventions in sport.

Breathing interventions and strategies are available to help reduce clinical symptoms, alleviate perceived breathlessness, and increase training tolerance.

Breath Tools exists to bridge this gap:

1) to improve the use of wearable sensors for breathing monitoring in sport (especially respiratory problems and limitations) and

2) to deliver accessible interventions and strategies for athletes to improve their breathing during activity
