WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL BREATHING ?

Functional breathing is crucial for maintaining optimal oxygen levels and a balanced autonomic nervous system, which regulates involuntary bodily functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and respiration. By becoming more aware of our breathing patterns and learning to regulate them, we can improve our physical and mental health, reduce stress, boost concentration, and increase energy levels.
