Is COPD leaving you out of breath? Simple exercises can strengthen the muscles you use to breathe stronger, making it easier for you to take in air and manage shortness of breath.
“When you’re short of breath, anxiety can increase and make it even harder to breathe,” says cardiac rehabilitation therapist Claudia Cavey, RN. “These exercises can help you stay relaxed when you feel your symptoms escalate and even prevent shortness of breath from occurring in the first place.”
