Please I had a locbectomy but my spirometer is a simple cylindrical container with a single ball. I am finding it difficult to keep the ball suspended. The ball moves so fast and I am not getting the impact. What do I do?
Thanks, this is awesome and really helpful! I have a couple questions: I was a bit confused by the recommended interval, did you say that it's generally once every hour with a single set of 10 reps? Would you recommend this device if I'm just trying to increase my lung capacity for exercise in general (swimming)?
Hi Doc. I hate to bother you, but I can't find the Voldyne 5000 Incentive Spirometer anywhere. I did find the Voldyne 4000 and the Voldyne 2500. They look the same or similar but, of course, one goes to 4000 and the other to 2500. I'm a 5-foot 3-inch-tall woman (68 y/o). Would the 2500 or the 4000 be ok for me or do I need to keep looking for the 5000? OR is there another brand that looks and functions the same?
It's good to know how to use it correctly.
Thanks for sharing

Yes. One set of 10 per hr you are awake is best. And yes this should also improve athletes specially swimmers like you
