Excerpt from Respiratory Exercises in the Treatment of Disease: Notably of the Heart, Lungs, Nervous and Digestive Systems BY modifying the respiratory movements in certain ways we can produce profound effects upon the organism. Not only can we regulate the absorption of oxygen and the elimina tion of the respiratory excreta, but we can also influence the circulation of blood and lymph, both generally and locally. Now, it occurred to me that some of these effects might be useful in the treatment of disease, and after prolonged and careful investigation I have come to the conclusion that properly-devised respiratory exercises have a great therapeutical value. This mode of treatment being founded on physiological principles, it has been necessary to define those principles, and this has involved a somewhat severely technical exposition. Those who have not the leisure nor the inclination to study this portion of the book may proceed at once to the more practical portion of it, beginning at Chapter XX.
