Six Healing Sounds 
​六字訣 

Join Dr. Sara Ptasnik to discover the transformative power of the Six Healing Sounds, a gentle qigong breathing exercise that combines simple body movements with the recitation of therapeutic sounds. Based on two-thousand years of traditional Chinese medicine, this holistic practice is clinically validated to enhance respiratory wellness.

Dr. Ptasnik will guide you through this easy exercise in a series of short videos designed to help you:
 

  • Improve Breath Control: By encouraging slow, deliberate breathing, this practice helps asthma patients develop better breath awareness and control.
     

  • Reduce Stress: The calming nature of the sounds helps lower stress levels, which can trigger or exacerbate asthma symptoms.
     

  • Strengthen Respiratory Muscles: Controlled exhalations strengthen the diaphragm and other respiratory muscles, promoting better respiratory health.
     

  • Clear Airways: The vibrations from the sounds can help loosen and clear mucus from the airways, facilitating easier breathing.
     

  • Enhance Lung Function: With regular practice, you may experience improved lung capacity and overall lung function.

 

Together, we will empower you with a simple practice to enhance your respiratory health, paving the way for a better quality of life.
