Breathing for Better Health: Helping Kids with Enlarged Tonsils, Adenoids, Allergies, and Blocked Sinuses

Do your children struggle with blocked noses, enlarged tonsils, frequent allergies, or restless sleep? Maybe you notice your children breathing with their mouths, having runny noses and constantly sniffling?

These challenges are often linked to dysfunctional breathing patterns that affect oxygen delivery, energy, focus, and even growth and craniofacial development (the development of the jaw and fascial bones). The good news is that addressing poor breathing habits can make a real difference.

In this workshop, we’ll explore how breathing impacts your child’s body and what you can do to support them. Through clear explanations, guided exercises, and practical tools to use at home, you’ll gain knowledge and confidence to help your child breathe — and live — better.

What you’ll learn and experience:

•⁠ ⁠Understand the anatomy, mechanics, and biochemistry of breathing and how they influence the whole body.
•⁠ ⁠Learn how enlarged tonsils, adenoids and chronic allergies affect airflow and oxygen delivery.
•⁠ ⁠Learn how to minimise and manage episodes of allergies, colds and respiratory infections.
•⁠ ⁠Discover simple breathing exercises to open up the nose and sinuses during allergy flare-ups, coughing, or congestion.
•⁠ ⁠Practice techniques that calm the nervous system and improve sleep quality.
•⁠ ⁠Take home easy, effective exercises your child can use daily to build healthier breathing habits.

This workshop is not just about easing symptoms — it’s about giving parents tools to address the root causes of dysfunctional breathing and support long-term health.

You’ll leave with practical strategies and exercises that can help your child find relief, sleep more peacefully, and feel more focused.
