  • After 80 years of chest infections this gives so much relief. No medication and simple to do. Thank you
  • @Sanpacu
    What a great video. This is the type of thing that makes the internet truly useful

    I am currently in Hospital with Acute Bronchitis. So far have been with a lot of phlegm that does not come out. Started doing your exercises and it’s finally coming up. Thank you so much. Will ❤ continue this treatment at home once I’m discharged. You are a lifesaver❤
  • I enjoyed the fact that you DON’T “waste the listeners time”, but focus on communicating valuable self-therapy in a clearly understandable manner. Thanks!!! 👍🏻:😮‍💨🗣😀

    Maybe the algorithm has heard me coughing so presented this video, but I've had a nagging cough for months (non-covid related). I tried this, and I've been coughing up phlegm for 15 minutes. And I do deep breathing and exercise every day. This really worked. Thank you!
  • @elektriccobra
    !!!!!!!!! I'm not even sick, and this still cleared some random phlegm out of my lungs!! Thank you!

    I am 69 and have COPD, bronchiectasis, and of course emphysema. When I saw you blowing bubbles through the straw, I had a good laugh (which, within itself helped expel the phlegm!). All the years of being told not to blow through a straw because it's rude....I AM ECSTATIC!!! Now I can indulge and know I won't get chastised!!! Thank you!!😄
  • Wow! I’ve been fighting the flu for 2 weeks with stubborn phlegm and this helped me immediately! THANK YOU!!!!

    I'm a voice teacher and vocal coach. This is the best video I have ever seen for breathing and for clearing the lungs. I use this video and I highly recommend it to my students. The explanation and step by step instruction is brilliant. I am not fond of the straw technique but the straw and water at the end of this video is the correct ratio. I like that the straw is used without phonation (no voice) and it finishes off the exercise routine nicely. Bravo!
  • @Anastashya
    I can 100% vouch for this technique! I had H1N1 double pneumonia and used the techniques shown. I swear they saved my life. 🥰
  • @crystalsea72
    I'm saving this video forever. I laughed so hard at your wonderful facial expressions that brought out some phlegm by itself. Thank you so much for your beautiful personality shining through! Love it!
  • Thank you SOOOOO much for this!!! I’m currently on day 7 of the worst flu/COVID of my life. I haven’t been able to sleep because I felt like I was drowning and gasping for air. Genuinely terrifying. Every breath out was bubbling and crackling. After doing your technique only 2 x in a row I can actually take deep breaths and am coughing up so much fluid. Thank you!!! ❤🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I can actually feel oxygen getting absorbed now!
  • @chaseback5102
    I’ve been wheezing for a few days now. Just did this exercise and I started coughing up phlegm!!! Thank you!!!!
  • @jennydiez1258
    My husband has been having excess mucus for 6mo. Today, he followed your advice and feels much, much better! Thank you!

    August 2023. This was the most helpful video for me to clear phlegm right away! I remembered after doing some deep breath exercises. I coughed up some thick phlegm that obviously needed to be outside my body. But since then I found myself struggling for air to breathe as if lungs were full. This popped in my recommendation videos today. I was laying down. Did some. I said nope let me stand up. Did every single one. Even blew water on my damn self the first time 😂 a few minutes later. Phlegm started to come out. Thanks so much. Will practice every day

    I currently am day 7 with covid. I have been trying to cough up the phlem for the last 2 days. It's been stuck in there, like glue. But man, doing these breathing exercises brought up so much and I feel like I can actually get a full breath in now with out the phlem rattling and a non productive coughing fit. Going to keep doing this because it sure helps! Thanks!

    A year ago when COVID started there was a British couple on holiday cruising on Princess. They both developed the virus and where ultimately transferred to a Japanese hospital. The hospital wanted to put the husband on a ventilator, but he refused. Instead he said he started rigorous deep breathing exercises. He recovered without going on the ventilator. His wife's case was not as severe. Both survived. He did a YouTube video telling of their experience.
  • This is so simple and very helpful, I had a speech impediment when I was younger, I was taught to use my diaphragm to control my breathing when I spoke, much as singers and actors do to project their voice. So many people shallow breathe without realising it, this all made perfect sense to me. Thank you for posting.
  • I come back to this video every couple of months once flu season is around and it never fails. Thank you
