Asthma, COPD & Respiratory Care Product Recommendations
Inhaler Spacer
​
Why I recommend it:
A spacer is one of the simplest tools that can make a huge difference for people who use inhalers. When you’re dealing with shortness of breath, chest tightness, or a sudden flare-up, it can be hard to time your inhaler perfectly. A spacer helps slow things down and improves how well the medicine gets into your lungs. Instead of medication staying in your mouth or throat, the spacer helps deliver it where it’s actually supposed to go.
I recommend a spacer because it can make inhalers feel more effective and less stressful to use. It’s also a great tool if you’ve ever felt like your inhaler “doesn’t work,” when in reality the issue might be technique or timing. This is one of those items that feels small, but it supports better daily control and more confidence when symptoms hit.

Portable Nebulizer (Mesh, Rechargeable)
Why I recommend it:
A portable nebulizer is something I recommend for people who want extra support on days when breathing feels harder than usual. When your chest feels tight, when you’re coughing more, or when you can feel symptoms building up, a nebulizer treatment can feel like a reset for your lungs (if you’ve been prescribed neb solutions). The portable mesh ones are especially helpful because they’re small, quiet, and easy to keep with you without it feeling like a huge medical device.
I recommend this because asthma and COPD do not always flare up at convenient times. Having a portable nebulizer means you can support your breathing at home, at work, or while traveling if you need it. It can be comforting just knowing you have it available, even if you don’t use it every day. It’s one of those “peace of mind” items that can help you feel more in control.

Nebulizer Machine (Home Compressor Style)
​
Why I recommend it:
If you prefer something reliable, steady, and made for consistent home use, a compressor nebulizer can be a great option. Portable devices are convenient, but compressor nebulizers are often stronger and built for longer treatments. For some people, this type of machine feels more dependable, especially during cold and flu season or during times when symptoms are more frequent.
I recommend this option because the goal with asthma and COPD management is to create a home setup that actually supports you. A compressor nebulizer is something you can keep in one place and use as part of your routine whenever it’s needed. It’s a helpful tool for people who want a consistent way to support their breathing without relying only on “pushing through it.”

HEPA Air Purifier (Indoor Air Support)
​
Why I recommend it:
For asthma and COPD, air quality matters. Even if you can’t see it, dust, allergens, smoke particles, and irritation in the air can build up and make symptoms worse over time. That’s why I recommend a True HEPA air purifier. It can reduce triggers in your home environment and help your air feel cleaner and lighter to breathe.
I recommend this especially if you live with pets, deal with dust, notice symptoms getting worse indoors, or feel sensitive to smells and air changes. Your home should be a place where your lungs can recover, not a place that constantly triggers symptoms. An air purifier is one of the best ways to create a “safe breathing space,” especially in your bedroom.

Mucus Clearance and Lung Expansion Device
​
Why I recommend this:
Mucus buildup can make asthma and COPD feel so much worse because it blocks airflow and makes breathing feel heavy, tight, and uncomfortable. I recommend a mucus clearance and lung expansion device because it helps support deeper breathing while also helping loosen mucus so it’s easier to clear out. When mucus is easier to remove, many people notice less coughing, less chest congestion, and breathing that feels smoother and less restricted. It’s a simple tool you can add into your routine in just a few minutes, and it can be especially helpful during flare-ups, when you’re sick, or anytime your chest feels “stuck.”

Peak Flow Meter
Why I recommend this:
I recommend a peak flow meter because it helps you measure your breathing in a simple, fast way and gives you real information instead of having to guess how your lungs are doing. A lot of times asthma symptoms can start getting worse before you fully feel it, and checking your peak flow can help you catch early warning signs of a flare-up sooner. It’s also really helpful for tracking patterns over time, figuring out what triggers you, and knowing when your breathing is improving or getting worse. Overall, it can help you stay more prepared, make better decisions with your care plan, and feel more in control of your asthma management.

Oxygen Saturation Monitor
​
Why I recommend this:
I recommend an oxygen saturation monitor (pulse oximeter) because it gives you a quick, simple way to check your oxygen level and pulse rate at home when you’re feeling short of breath or your symptoms feel different than usual. When you have asthma or COPD, it can be hard to tell if you just feel tight and anxious, or if your breathing is actually getting worse. This tool helps you track what’s going on in real time, so you can stay calmer, notice changes earlier, and make safer decisions about when to rest, use your prescribed treatments, or reach out for medical help. It’s especially helpful during flare-ups or when you’re sick, because it helps you monitor your breathing more closely.

Incentive Spirometer
Why I recommend this:
Support Your Lungs with Deep, Intentional Breathing
An incentive spirometer is a simple but powerful tool I often recommend for lung expansion and breathing support. It’s designed to help you take slow, deep breaths—encouraging your lungs to fully expand and work more effectively.
This adult lung exerciser features a large inhale volume measurement (up to 6000 mL), along with visual flow and scale indicators that help guide proper breathing technique

Chest Percussion Cup & Flutter Valve Device
Why I recommend this:
Effective mucus clearance is essential for healthy breathing—especially for individuals with asthma, COPD, chronic bronchitis, pneumonia recovery, or excess secretions.
This Chest Percussion Cup & Flutter Valve device is a simple, non-invasive tool that supports airway clearance by helping loosen and mobilize mucus so it can be expelled more easily.

Sinus Rinse
Why I recommend this:
The NeilMed Sinus Rinse is a safe, effective, and drug-free way to support healthy sinus function and better breathing. It helps gently flush out mucus, allergens, dust, and other irritants that can contribute to nasal congestion, sinus pressure, and post-nasal drip.Regular sinus rinsing can improve nasal airflow, keep the nasal passages moist, and reduce irritation—making it especially helpful for individuals with allergies, frequent sinus congestion, or exposure to environmental triggers.
