Apologies for cross-posting. We have recently received a request to refer someone for Buteyko treatment/therapy for asthma. I have done a quick search on Medline on this topic and came up with only 3 references - all relating to a study in Australia. A search on the internet through up hundreds of pages, mainly background information to Buteyko and where you can get it. Is there any evidence for this treatment/therapy for asthma? Does anyone know of any systematic review of Buteyko? Many thanks.
