Dobbyn worked for a Ford Motor company for more than 36 years, suffered severe lung damage from inhaling gasoline flames while working and now has to use oxygen to help regulate blood levels. Using harmonica to improve breathing is the latest technique that respiratory doctors are using to help patients with lung diseases, including lung cancer, chronic respiratory obstruction and even asthma
Although the study of the benefits of harmonica to lung patients has not yet been published, Dr. Neil Schachter, a professor at the Sinai University of Medicine in New York, has concluded that this must certainly be a must. Reasonable facility, and he shares his thoughts with the American Lung Association. The Respiratory Specialist from the Sebastian River Basin Medical Center, Liz Kalinosky, said harmonica improves the ability to breathe deeply and helps to restore the unused areas of the lungs.

At a recent meeting in the Better Respiratory Club, the ALA program manager, Mary Shields, showed how to play the harmonica properly. She performed her work as a transcriptionist for harmonica, "Mary has a small sheep", showing how dozens of older people can breathe deeply when harmonica breathes in their health. . Respiratory rehabilitation patients from Memorial Hospital near Orlando have also jumped on an orchestra to perform, meeting into a mobile harmonica band named HarmoniKatz.

"It's wonderful when our fecal diseases learn and play and are reminded of how to use the diaphragm and control the breath," she said. Carol McLaughlin, 71, who lives in Vero Coast, came to Sebastian's training because she wanted to hear some suggestions about learning to play harmonica.
"You have the right to breathe in and out any time you think," said MacLaughlin, who suffered from a form of chronic bronchitis.
“I think harmonica can help me do this. In an article that I read, it is very beneficial for people with weak lungs to see harmonica because it makes you breathe in and out more regularly. ” Dr. Shields said while practicing harmonica blowing, the benefits that it brings are worth it.
"I found this to be a very intense exercise, even for me," said Dr. Shields, "and I have a normal working lung."
