Carol Baglia

Carol Baglia is a licensed Respiratory Therapist and certified Buteyko Breathing Instructor. After suffering from allergies, asthma and the side effects of the drugs she was taking to manage them, Carol sought a better way to heal her respiratory challenges.

 

After learning the Buteyko breathing method, her health improved so dramatically from practicing the new breathing techniques that it inspired her to change careers and share its benefits with others. She became certified by the Buteyko Institute of Breathing and Health to teach in August 2003 after extensive training by Jennifer Stark, author of The Carbon Dioxide Syndrome book.

 

Carol has also obtained licensure, certification, and registration as a traditional respiratory therapist. She graduated with honors and was awarded the Outstanding Respiratory Therapy Student in 2004. Carol is passionate about letting people know that they have options available to them in responsibly managing their respiratory health care. Buteyko works if you just DO IT.  Carol attended advanced training with Patrick McKeown (Ireland, 2009) and Masha Anthonissen- Kotousova (Netherlands, 2006) who are both authors of Buteyko training manuals.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT LEARNING BUTEYKO

“I have very little nasal drip any more.  My sinuses and nose were usually stuffy and now are clear. My dry throat stays moist through the night and I no longer keep water by the bed to drink. Advair and Albuterol were eliminated. Breathing is easier. I have more energy and I do more activities such as golf. I go out of the house more often. I do not wake up in the night any more due to breathing problems.  Carol Baglia has provided answers and coaching free of charge after the class by attendance at other classes, email and telephone.  My thanks to Carol Baglia for an improved life.”

"I feel so much better.  More than 100% better because of Buteyko! I am not 'breathless' when I walk up stairs.  Previous to the class, I would run to a phone at work and people thought I was dying!!!  They would say, "Are you okay?" I do not have hunger desperation!  I would panic when I got hungry.  I don't anymore.  I am eating less and feeling better. I sleep like a baby. I am much, much calmer.  I don't feel old anymore."

The workshop exceeded my expectations.  I feel I am leaving the class with the skills to continue the Buteyko techniques which will help my overall quality of life.  I've noticed several benefits in learning the Buteyko Method. My lifestyle is very fast paced, but I've really noticed how quickly I can lower my stress level by using the techniques learned with the Buteyko Method a few minutes throughout the day. I also have been experimenting with the breathing techniques during my cardio workouts. I feel that I have much better oxygen supply when using the Buteyko Method. In addition, I used to have a slight cough, not a big deal just something over the years I've learned to live with, but recently I've noticed that my cough has almost disappeared. I like that the Buteyko Method is a natural alternative towards good health.”
