Mucus Relief Cleanser & Lung Expansion Device by Tilcare - Breathing Exerciser for Better Fitness & Sleep - Perfect Treatment Aid for COPD, Asthma, Bronchitis & Cystic Fibrosis - OPEP Flutter Machine

Used daily it clears the mucus from chest infections

I bought this after my neighbour recommended OPEP devices as I've had a residual cough with hard to shift mucus for 2 weeks following an infection. Instructions were clear, although I didn't bother with the filter mouthpiece as it seemed a bit pointless. After a few tries, I went up to the largest ball size and went through around 20 rounds of use. After every 2 or 3 breaths, the urge to cough was impossible to resist, and I was able to shift a lot of mucus from areas in my lungs that wouldn't move previously. My intercostal muscles feel like they've been through a workout, however my lungs feel more clear than they have for 3 weeks and have done for around 2 hours after I used the device. If I can use this before bed and get a full night sleep, I will be very happy indeed!

The Tilcare comes with 3 weighted balls and therefore different resistance. There are several products with similar action (OPED) and prices. I have now tried this product twice daily for 12 days before writing a review . There are mixed reviews on this and other similar products as one would expect. In terms of ease of use - it took me about 3 days to achieve the correct vibration (Oscillation)with the weighted ball, this was mainly due to achieving the correct position of the product. So please from my perspective do not give up , persistence paid off in which I finally achieved the correct position and angle and breath for maximum vibration. When I started my peak flow was 340 which was low for me , I was having problems coughing up the mucus exhausting myself in the process. Towards the end of the trial period my peak flow was 500... Over the days as I began to master the technique it became easier to remove the mucus easier . I have not had to use additional medication throughout and now feel so much better with my breathing and increasing level of exercise. I hope this has helped those who read this - the key word is to achieve the max oscillation and therefore vibration to release the mucus, which requires patience and persistence.

Been using for a little while whilst it does help remove stuff out of your lungs like tar and flem I don't see any other health benefits. Bit pricey for just receiving a plastic tube and metal ball.

Thanks for a good product and very quick delivery. Item as described. Good quality product. Priced ok.

too expensive

I have had a low level slightly productive daytime cough that is just a bit annoying. So I thought I would gve this device a try. There are lots of similar devices to choose from; I chose this one becasue of the good price and it includes a filter, which I have never used, but could... I use the medium-sized of 3 the balls that come with it becasue it vibrates quite well and (quite correctly) causes me to cough the most effectively..Get the angle right and it should vibrate quite well when you blow out. I use it maybe 3-4 times a day, whenever I think of it, but try to use it in the morning and at bedtime. I think it has reduced the frequency of coughing during the day so I will continue to use it and see what happens, longer term...

I bought this product based on the reviews of it Its made from plastic, contains three ball bearings, of various sizes The theory is, the stronger your lungs get, the bigger the ball bearing you put in also, the more you use it the stronger your lungs get, just like a muscle, use it or lose it I've been using it a month or so, the amount of mucous my lungs are producing is a lot more, I still cough and bring up phlegm, but at least its clear (sorry but I have to spit it out, its like wall paper paste) I dont know if it is supposed to produce more mucous (or phlegm)from my lungs, but it does I would assume you use it as long as possible or until your lungs are strong enough to blow up a water bottle, or kids balloons I would recommend it, but some people wouldnt, but I guess it works different for different people For what it is, I think its over priced, you could just get a stack of balloons and use them, it works on the same principle, it exercises your lungs in the same way I showed it to my consultant, he said its an interesting concept and if you are happy using it, carry on, if it works and makes you feel better, use it, but that is my opinion (the consultant) I cant argue with him or his opinion I'd say, buy it, give it a try for a month, if it font work for you, return it I'm keeping mine Derrick

Was 20 Ärzte, Apotheker und Heilpraktiker nicht angesprochen oder "verordnet" haben.... und nach Monaten der Qualen mit allen möglichen Arzneimitteln endlich Linderung schon nach der ersten Anwendung. Probiert es aus!!!

Buen producto para eliminar mucosidad y ejercitar los pulmones

Items wasn't packed nicely, box flattened ... Items came in unfixed and in pieces. Instructions were not clear on how to fix the device. Visited the website given , it was not clear too !! Disappointed with the order

…quality than I expected. Seem to function as described. All good :)

difficile au début mais il faut persévèrer
