Functional Breathing retraining for athletes

As exercise intensity increases, breathing can become the limiting factor — not fitness. If you're experiencing throat tightness, noisy breathing, or breathlessness that doesn't respond to inhalers, there may be an underlying airway condition driving your symptoms. Functional Airway Lab specializes in identifying and treating exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction/paradoxical vocal fold motion, breathing pattern disorder, and exercise-induced bronchoconstriction through targeted assessment and structured breathing rehabilitation. Our speeech pathology services are available via telepractice throughout California, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, and Oregon.

Care is led by Karie Marsh, a doctor of speech-language pathology and certified functional breathing instructor, with advanced training in airway and breathing function.
