Overview

Primary Prevention

Over the long term, there are several important steps to help you stop overbreathing:

  • If anxiety or panic, seeing a psychologist or psychiatrist helps.
  • Breathing exercises helps.
  • Practice relaxation techniques regularly, such as progressive muscle relaxation or meditation.
  • Exercise regularly.

If these methods alone are not preventing overbreathing,a beta blocker medication may be recommended.
