The Effectiveness of Occidental Breathing Therapy Methods: A Systematic Review This systematic review investigates and evaluates the efficacy of different Western methods of breathing therapy with regard to somatic and psychological parameters, as well as possible adverse effects of breathing therapy. 23 studies on the methods according to Middendorf, Richter, Dürckheim/Graubner, Papworth, van Dixhoorn and Buteyko, as well as 1 review on the Buteyko method, were arranged in tabular form and then compared and evaluated. A variety of mainly somatic but also psychological parameters were examined in the studies. There were clear indications of the efficacy of breathing therapy, especially regarding asthma, chronic back pain, cardiac dysfunctions, and pain. There were also indications that breathing therapy can be effective in the treatment of various psychological parameters, in particular, anxiety. Breathing therapy hardly changes the lung functions, but it can have a clinically significant effect on asthmatic symptoms and cardiac dysfunctions. In our review, the somatic and the psychological effectiveness of breathing therapy balanced each other. Breathing therapy is safe. As previous studies have shown, no negative side effects are to be expected as long as a qualified diagnostic system is used and breathing therapy is applied in a competent and professional manner. There are indications that therapeutic breathing methods can have a direct psychotherapeutic effect. More controlled interventions studies are needed to obtain additional evidence of such positive effects. The same is true for those parameters that lead to positive treatment results after breathing therapy in cases of asthmatic symptoms or regarding the quality of life of asthma patients, chronic back pain, certain cardiac dysfunctions, anxiety, and depression. In these cases, future, carefully designed intervention studies could also show positive effects.
