In breathing therapy, people learn to consciously perceive their own breathing and use its power for themselves using various methods. This is because the breath is the connection between body and mind or also between inside and outside as well as between the conscious and subconscious mind. It reflects the current mental and physical state. This holistic form of therapy is one of the oldest healing methods and is part of traditional European medicine. It is a valuable addition to massage therapy.

Tipps und Entscheidungshilfen für die Ausbildungswahl

Would you like to work in your own practice? Or work in another practice, a hospital or a similar institution? Have you already completed training - preferably in the healthcare sector or in a therapeutic profession - and would you now like to attend further training?

Then training to become a respiratory therapist is definitely an interesting option. It is used prophylactically as well as to promote healing and influences both the body and the psyche. The exercises promote self-awareness, which leads to an influence on the autonomic nervous system. This results in a sense of well-being, which promotes the improvement of psychosomatic disorders, anxiety relief and psychological development.

Training to become a respiratory therapist usually takes one to two years and is part-time. It is completed with a school diploma. This therapy is used in many different ways, often in conjunction with other forms of therapy such as physiotherapy. Are you interested in respiratory therapy training?

Questions and answers

The platform Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch surveyed people interested in respiratory therapy. The results of the survey showed that 82% of school inquiries were triggered by online reviews. 15 % enquired about schools recommended to them for more details on further training as a respiratory therapist. 3 % already knew the school they were interested in attending beforehand. However, the online presence of schools is also becoming increasingly important, as shown by answers that survey participants optionally used: "Because I came across these training centers through a Google search", "found via Google search", "Internet", "interesting homepage", "I did some research and came across it", "start date is suitable", "I listen to my gut feeling", "spontaneously", "saw on SRF1" and "I want to check the offers". Many schools improve their online visibility by listing themselves on our platform. Other answers show the importance of location: "your school is near me" and "because it is close to where I live". Someone gave the following reason: "Because the school has decades of experience and was the first school to be recognized.".

Die Kenntnisse und Kompetenzen, die Absolventen der Atemtherapie während ihrer Ausbildung erwerben, können sehr unterschiedlich je nach Bildungsangebot sein. Grundsätzlich werden Atemtherapeutinnen und -therapeuten jedoch umfangreich in praktischen Methoden, methodischer Theorie und diversen themenspezifischen Bereichen geschult. Diese umfassen beispielsweise:
  • Angewandte Atemlehre
  • Atem und Bewegung
  • Vokal-Atemraumbildung
  • Tonus und Ton
  • Psychosomatik
  • Anatomie, Physiologie und Pathologie
  • Psychologie
  • Ethik
  • Kommunikation und Interaktion
  • Gesundheitsverständnis
  • Qualitätssicherung und Berufsidentität
Über detaillierte Inhalte informieren Sie die einzelnen Schulen.
Die Dauer einer Ausbildung zum Atemtherapeuten bzw. zur Atemtherapeutin ist nicht bei allen Schulen und Bildungseinrichtungen gleich, so dass Sie dies bitte bei allen infrage kommenden Anbietern abklären sollten. 2 bis 3 Jahre berufsbegleitende Ausbildung sind jedoch die Regel, um sich umfassend und vertiefend in der Atemtherapie schulen zu lassen und im Anschluss in diesem Bereich tätig werden zu können. Kurze Seminare, die sich über einige Wochen oder Monate erstrecken, eignen sich nicht für eine solide Ausbildung, sondern sind vielmehr Zusatzqualifikationen für bereits aktive Therapeuten, die sich zu speziellen Themenschwerpunkten fortbilden lassen möchten, oder aber Weiterbildungen für Menschen, die ausschliesslich für persönliche Zwecke einen Einblick in dieses Gebiet der Komplementärmedizin nehmen möchten.
Da es nicht die einzig wahre Atemtherapie gibt, sondern viele unterschiedliche Varianten angewandt und gelehrt werden, finden Sie auch an den Schulen und Ausbildungsstätten ganz unterschiedliche Inhalte wieder, je nach Ausrichtung, wie etwa Erfahrbarer Atem nach Ilse Middendorf, Atemarbeit nach Cornelis Veening, Atem- und Leibtherapie nach Graf Dürckheim und viele mehr. Aus diesem Grund ist es äusserst wichtig, dass Sie sich umfassend mit den einzelnen Methoden und Schwerpunkten der Atem-Therapie auseinandersetzen und die für Sie am besten geeignete Variante auswählen. Erkundigen Sie sich im Anschluss danach, welche Schulen genau diesen Ansatz verfolgen und lassen Sie sich von diesen über die genauen Inhalte informieren. Mit unserem Kontaktformular setzen Sie sich ganz einfach und schnell mit den entsprechenden Schulen in Verbindung.
Wer sich als Patient für eine Atemtherapie entscheidet, der muss nicht zwangsläufig körperlich erkrankt sein, denn neben körperlichen Beschwerden sind es auch häufig die seelischen Belastungen, welche Patienten dazu bewegt, sich diese Therapieform auszusuchen, um eine Verbesserung ihrer Situation zu erlangen. Eine Atem-Therapie kann vielerlei Beschwerden und Störungen abmildern und behandeln, aber auch die Einstellung der Betroffenen zu ihrem Leben und ihrem Körper positiv verändern. Diese Methode wird von Atemtherapeuten angewandt, um eine gesunde Körperwahrnehmung zu erlangen und sich bewusst zu machen, dass all ihr Handeln, jeder Atemzug, den sie machen, Auswirkungen auf ihr Leben und ihre Gesundheit hat. Daher wird die Atemtherapie unter anderem für folgende Bereiche, jedoch auch für wesentlich mehr, angewandt:
  • Psychosomatische Erkrankungen
  • Magen-Darm-Probleme
  • Atemwegs-Erkrankungen
  • Verspannungen der Muskeln
  • Haltungsfehler
  • Hormonelle Störungen und Veränderungen (Schwangerschaft, Pubertät, Wechseljahre)
  • Schlaflosigkeit
  • Essstörungen
  • Raucherentwöhnung
  • Körperliche Schmerzen
  • Herz- und Kreislauf-Beschwerden
  • Burnout und Stress
  • Despressionen und Verstimmungen
  • Gesundheitsförderung

People are interested in a course on respiratory therapy for a variety of reasons. This is also shown by a survey conducted by the education platform Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch. This revealed that 95% of respondents are still comparing the course content and further training with their own needs. 4 % of survey participants show interest on the basis of a recommendation. For 1% of those interested in the respiratory therapist course, interest was triggered by mentions in job advertisements. Someone gave a very specific and personal reason for their interest in the respiratory therapy course: "As an opera/jazz singer and teacher, I would finally like to realize my desire to learn this profession as well". Other people stated "Professional interest", "I work in singing bowls and yoga", "I would like it as an addition to my physiotherapy work in the hospice", "Because I am incredibly interested in the subject, breathing is our origin, our source of strength", "I have learned about the positive effects through self-awareness", "Professional reorientation", "I wonder how breathing affects the whole person", "I have the feeling that it is very helpful to me personally and in my work with my patients." and "Because I can help a lot of people with this training and also do it for myself. It is an opportunity that I would like to take" as reasons. This person seems to have really found their calling: "Respiratory therapy incorporates all my interests and strengths. I know the important and extensive effects of breathing. It was mentioned to me in my meditation. I already work a lot with breathing, meditation, relaxation... it suits me!"

- Direct federal funding for higher professional education

We are committed to holistic, resource-oriented and Swiss-recognized training and further education. Breath therapy is one of the oldest complementary therapeutic methods. The physical, mental and spiritual powers inherent in the human being are strengthened through the attentive perception of the unconscious breathing pattern to the experienced own breathing process and the development of the breathing power.
The central stimulation of the processes of consciousness through breathing influences the awareness of sensation and the emotional life. The process-centered modular course offers you a comprehensive basis for applying what you have experienced and learned after completion.
Strengths: Practice-oriented and recognized: Training and further education / postgraduate course integrated in the course / supervision / intervision / courses / weekly hours
