Scientifically Proven Breathing Techniques that Relieve the Symptoms of Dozens of Common Health Problems and Improve Sports Performance

Breathing Re-education:

“It’s very intuitive: If we breathe better…we can deliver more oxygen to our muscles and organs, including the heart and brain, and thus heighten our physical capacity. All we’re really doing is assisting the body in working the way it was meant to work in the first place.”

– Patrick McKeown, The Oxygen Advantage

Why Isn't Correct Breathing A Health Priority?

Patrick McKeown, BA, MA, was educated at Trinity College Dublin. He is the founder and Director of Training and Education at Buteyko Clinic International. Patrick is also the creator, CEO, and Director of Education and Training at Oxygen Advantage®.

During his childhood and into his twenties, Patrick suffered from asthma. In 1998, he read an article in an Irish newspaper about the work of Ukrainian Doctor Konstantin Buteyko. By applying the basic two principles from Dr. Buteyko, his asthma improved by about 60 to 70% in one week.

So that he could teach this method to asthma sufferers like himself, Patrick trained directly under Dr. Konstantin Buteyko at The Buteyko Clinic in Moscow.

In March 2002, Patrick was accredited by Professor Buteyko. When he returned to Ireland, Patrick founded Buteyko Clinic International. 

During the next thirteen years, Patrick built on Dr. Buteyko’s pioneering work. In 2015, Patrick launched Oxygen Advantage®, a program that incorporates simulation of high-altitude training, along with functional breathing training.
