Julia runs a series of Pulmonary Rehab classes for people with COPD. Here she talks about what motivates her and what she’s learned about how people feel about living with breathing difficulties. Most importantly she emphasises that you only get out of a class what you’re prepared to put in.
Watch out half way through for guest appearances from several energetic members of Julia’s class 
Great video, experience of other people helps us to deal with many situations in our lives also.Great site with quality video collection,thanks.
I have been recommended to contact Julia Bott by Brian Harrison, a respiratory physician from Norwich. I am looking to find a respiratory physiotherapist to advise on my bronchiectasis, preferably in North London/ Hertfordshire.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Mary
Thanks for your comment. In the first instance you need to go to your GP who will then be able to refer you to an appropriate respiratory physio within primary care. Good luck. Best wishes

This is an interesting video, but what surprises me is the complete lack of focus on breathing techniques. The gains in body conditioning and overall performance can be very substantially increased by diaphraghmatic and pursed lip breathing.–Vlady
