Buteyko South Texas

Laurie has over 20 years’ experience as a dental hygienist. For years she observed the effects of the tongue on the teeth, and the increase of patients needing orthodontics. The observation was personal as her own son had a tongue thrust which was addressed at an early age with an orthodontic appliance. Unfortunately the appliance was doomed to fail as she later learned her son is a mouth breather, and was propping his mouth open in his sleep with his tongue.

Surgery to correct his jaw and open bite was the only solution offered by the specialists. Laurie then learned of the Buteyko Breathing method, and Myofunctional therapy, both of which work together to open the airway and stop the tongue thrust. Laurie has taken the course with Patrick McKeown to treat breathing disorders, and Orofacial Myology courses to correct the swallow.

Laurie is located in the South Texas region, located near Corpus Christi Texas. Prospective clients as far as Laredo Texas are in her area. Contact her at 361-236-4191 or for more information.

Buteyko Fort Worth Texas

Brandon suffered from regular sever asthma attacks from the age of two until the age of twenty seven. Over his lifetime he tried many traditional and alternative treatments to control his asthma with little to no success. In 1999 while preparing for a Summer Semester at Moscow State University he discovered BBT on the internet and ordered a vhs tape and training manual, as there were no Buteyko Practiconeers in his home state at that time. Over the course of a single year he was able to go from using 15-25 puffs of Ventolin & 2 puffs of steroids daily, to no medication at all. It took some work and dedication to be sure, but to date Brandon has not required any asthma medication in over five years. In 2008 he was certified by Patrick McKeown to teach this wonderful method. In 2009 Brandon launched AsthmaCoach.com, a site dedicated to spreading the BBT method to asthmatics across the globe.

Colleen Watson is an Oral Health Coach and an Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist with over 35 years in the dental field. While searching for assistance to benefit her mouth-breathing patients and numerous allergy , asthma patients, Colleen discovered the Buteyko breathing method.

Colleen is incorporating the Buteyko breathing training with her myofunctional therapy and would like to help other clients in discovering the benefits of correct nasal breathing. She plans to begin a separate practice as a Buteyko instructor this year. Your Mouth is Not Your Nose!

Bryn Jimenez Soprano – Houston, Texas

Wagnerian soprano and voice teacher Bryn Jimenez began practicing Buteyko Breathing Method after accidentally discovering that her asthma was not only undermanaged, but was negatively impacting her voice. As she learned more about chronic hyperventilation, she realized many of her students would also benefit from training that emphasized reduced-volume breathing.

In addition to offering dedicated sessions in Buteyko Breathing Method, Bryn offers voice lessons that integrate Buteyko practices to improve vocal production in singers, actors, and public speakers experiencing vocal dysfunction and performance anxiety as a result of excessive breathing volume. She is also developing resources to help other music educators better understand and support students with chronic hyperventilation.

Shereen Yusuff – Houston, Texas

Shereen’s breath journey started at the age of four, through tennis. She learned breath exercises, to be able to hit harder, run faster and lift more weights. When she got into Ultramarathons and Ironmans, she recognized how crucial breath was to her recovery. Climbing mountains first led her to the Wim Hof Method (Shereen is currently an advanced instructor in the Wim Hof Method) and very quickly after, the Buteyko Method. She believes that the Wim Hof Method is like going to the gym, and the Buteyko method teaches us how to breathe the rest of the time. Integrating both the methods has greatly enhanced her meditation practice which has made her a happier and healthier person.

Shereen is currently based in Houston, Texas and works with clients all over the world, especially India and Oman. She integrates teachings from both the East and the West. Shereen is excited to work with people who want to use breath as a tool to enhance performance, and are looking to increase mindfulness. She is also very passionate about working with children and enjoys incorporating different breath techniques in her private sessions, to help enhance health and happiness.

David Gracy – Lago Vista, Texas

David came across the Buteyko method when he was looking for solutions for his panic attacks. When learning the Buteyko breathing exercises and never experiencing a panic attack again, he was amazed at the power of breathing and how it can impact so many areas of our health.

It didn’t stop with panic attacks, as an unexpected benefit, David was also able to stop snoring after snoring for over 40 years. Not only did this impact his health tremendously but also his spouse who often didn’t get good sleep because of his snoring.

Lastly, David would experience mild bouts of asthma and allergies throughout the year and by continuing to practice Buteyko on a daily basis he was able to reduce his asthma to a point of no longer needing his inhaler. With so many benefits David experienced from Buteyko, he was inspired to become a Buteyko Certified Instructor.

Dianne C. Rockefeller – San Antonio, Texas

I’m a highly skilled performance and athletic enhancement therapist with years of experience at the professional sports level (NBA, MLB, NFL, and other elite sports). My focus is on injury prevention, recovery, performance enhancement, and treatment for acute and chronic pain. I office in San Antonio, TX and also work out-of-office for professionals/clients. In addition to sports, I work with complicated conditions such as concussions, stroke, Meniers and Parkinson’s disease.

My personal experiences and practice have taught me that the breath is one of the most important variables to consider in human performance. This is why I include respiratory muscle testing in my clinical reasoning and screening process. I understand how someone’s respiratory system can impact (good or bad) his or her performance and recovery. The human body is an interrelated system and no part operates in isolation.  Equally important is that the human body is only as strong as it’s weakest link.

By using my comprehensive clinical reasoning process that considers the interplay of movement and stability throughout your body, I identify and correct the actual drivers of problems as opposed to just treating a symptoms or chasing pain. Strength is paramount in every part of the body. If one component is not working well, then it can compromise integrity in other areas of the body. Proper biomechanics not only involves muscles, tendons and ligaments being symmetrical, but also multi-directional in strength and stability.

Too often, the breath is overlooked in human performance and athletics. The breath is powerful. With proper training, it can become a real game changer.
