Felicity visited our clinic to provide an educational session for our physiotherapy team, focusing on the importance of proper breathing techniques and the potential consequences of dysfunctional breathing patterns. Her presentation was both engaging and informative, offering valuable insights into how breathing impacts overall physical health and rehabilitation outcomes. Felicity’s approachable manner, combined with her deep expertise in the subject, made the session highly beneficial for our team.
Felicity’s course was great and super helpful. She makes you at ease through the whole course and it is such useful content covered. There is a lot to learn about breathing and I full recommend this to anyone.
It has helped me a lot with feeling a lot more at ease in my day to day living.

I attended a breathing assessment with Felicity at breathe free clinic and was very impressed by her expertise. She explained the results clearly, and the capnography provided valuable insights into my breathing patterns. I left with a much better understanding of the underlying issues and practical steps forward. I’d definitely recommend her.

I completed the six-week breathing training with Felicity at Breathe Free Clinic, and I’m deeply grateful for the experience. Felicity’s extensive knowledge of breathwork is matched by her ability to share it with clarity, enthusiasm, and simplicity.

Her compassionate and encouraging approach created a safe and supportive space throughout the training.

What I’ve learned is, that if you commit to the practices and show up for yourself, the results can be truly astounding. I highly recommend Felicity.

After what seemed like an endless run of coughs, colds and nasal or chest infections along with erratic sleep patterns I came across an article on the benefits of Buteyko breathing which led me to Breathefree and Felicity Campbell.
After a detailed assessment of where I was at, along with an overview of the course, I decided to enrol and complete the sessions, sharing the time with one other person. Each session had a different focus although each included a practical breathing session along with the research and theory behind the changes that we were trying to implement. We were sent away to practice the retraining of our breathing along with articles or links for possible further research.
Felicity has the passion that naturally comes with teaching something that has worked personally. She is up to date with current research, not only concerning breathing but in the wider field of Holistic Health.
I found all areas of the course fascinating and the changes facilitated have produced marked positive effects on my health.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Felicity and her course to others!

To you all pondering the Buteyko Breathing course with Breathe Free Clinic.

I am just an ordinary girl (Woman) who has suffered with Asthma for most of my life. My last visit with the Respiratory Clinic at the Hospital had me leaving with another inhaler to add to my regime. I left feeling very dispondent as to where i would be in a few years relying on all this medication.
I am a runner with exercise induced asthama and was looking for some breathing advice to help me perform better. This led me to the Breath Free Clinic.
Results: Today (9 Weeks) post starting this course – I am asthma medication free. I have reduced other medications and will shortly be all medication free. This natural breathing technique with Felicity has been an absolute game changer for me.
Felicity is an amazing trainer. She is a calm and passionate person with our best interests at heart.
This is the best thing i could of done for my health and longevity.

I did the 6 week course with Felicity and it helped reduce my breathing issues and asthma symptoms greatly. I went from using my inhaler daily, sometimes several times a day, to only needing it maybe once every 2 weeks or so. My chronic cough also managed to mostly disappear. Would highly recommend this course.

I have recently completed the 6 week Breathe Free Clinic Course with Felicity Campbell to relearn to nose breathe.
As a result the indigestion and reflux problems I experienced for over 40 years completely disappeared within a week or so of beginning the course and I am told that I no longer experience sleep apnoea or snore much to my wife’s delight. Certainly “Gobo”, the anti-snoring device I have put up with for many years is in the bin!
The focus on nose breathing has been an educationally enlightening enriching experience that I did not anticipate and I continue to discover the benefits of.

I found the course intense requiring real commitment, however Felicity’s warm professional encouragement has ensured a life changing result.

I thought I knew how to breathe (well), and yet I really didn’t know much at all about breathing until I worked with Felicity.

Felicity’s comprehensive program has been incredibly life changing and very likely life extending.

I saw Felicity after suffering from years of chronic insomnia and PTSD and I was shocked and delighted at how quickly my symptoms improved.

Her extensive knowledge and support helped me embody the changes I needed to make and has given me invaluable tools that I know I’ll used forever!

Your course at Breathe Free Clinic has been one of the best courses I have ever done in my life.

These tools are invaluable and I am so delighted that I have been able to have your guidance to learn how to breathe properly. 

Breathing is something we just take for granted but all the information that you shared has definitely been world-class. 

Thank you ever so much.

I hope more people would make this a priority full stop because it’s one of the life lessons we all need.

Thank you

If you have been considering doing this breathing course at Breathe Free Clinic I can honestly say it has helped both my son (14 years) and I immensely. 

Felicity is very easy to get along with, she is patient and professional (and) provides clear documented guidelines so you can easily revise what you are doing. Learning effective breathing is a process where she encourages you and assists you with the goals that you have for overall health improvement.

Breathing is definitely something we take for granted yet have never actually taken the time to learn how to do well.

This course can help with so many different facets of your well-being. The improvements if you follow her guidelines really do help you to feel fantastic.’

Thank you Felicity.

Thank you so much (also) for the breathing coaching and lessons. I thoroughly enjoyed them and (as I said, I think) I learned a lot. (I intend to resume my routine of three breathing exercises a day).

I want to tell you that I am so much better with sleeping, I don’t have that “having to get up

In the middle of the night problem” any more, and I am so grateful to you for what you have done

For me. …. I thank God for the day Bill found your advertisement in the local paper, also for having been able to get all your instruction and help before this terrible virus (COVID-19) struck.

I would be happy to recommend your treatment to anyone.  In fact, I have told a few people about you, and they are all so pleased to hear about how much you have done for me.

I had periodic mild to severe episodes of asthma in addition to colds or flu that would regularly become bronchial infections. The worst of these … prompted me to begin breathing retraining. In the more than a year since I have been engaged in the training, I have had no more episodes of asthma, no colds or flu, and no episodes of bronchial or lung infection. I no longer need a bronchodilator and am in the process of eliminating a daily corticosteroid (which Leslie has since done) …I highly recommend the Breathe Free Clinic’s breathing retraining to others.

It has been a great pleasure working with Felicity. Our written and video (Skype) communications were always prompt, well planned, and well executed. Felicity was very knowledgeable and well organized. Thank you

Hi Felicity Neelima here … I had a badly broken bone (right hand/arm) which triggered major anxiety attacks! Five days on and loads and loads of buteyko later I’m nearly there 😉🙏 … it’s good to have a powerful tool to support through times of extra stress or shock / trauma’

After 6 weeks of breathing practice chiropractor (to well-known rugby team) said:

‘Your chest is a lot less tight and breathing better. 

What have you been doing?

On hearing Jesse was learning to breathe correctly with the Breathe Free Clinic commented that he was lucky to be learning at an early age what the rugby team were being taught now!

My daughter was experiencing shortness of breath and very irregular breathing and couldn’t sustain long periods of exercise,… was tired in school and was unable to keep up with peers in sports at school.

(Having just completed the breathing retraining) breathing is more regular, (she) is not so breathless with exercising and sleeping longer. No longer yawning so much … Recommend to others because benefits are quite noticeable

I wanted to improve my breathing and wondered if it would help to prevent the recurrence of an episode recently experienced of brief memory loss (Transient Global Amnesia). The breathing retraining promised to help with snoring which I also suffered from. After completing the retraining my husband said he needed to poke me to see if I was alive because I was no longer snoring each night.
