Did you know that PowerLung recommendations and training programs have been part of books almost since it was introduced? PowerLung is pleased to be included in these publications but what makes us proud is that these authors are providing independent recommendations of our product. Each of them purchased the product, used it, and then documented their use and recommendations.
As a matter of fact PowerLung usually finds out about these recommendations after the author requests to use the Trademark or product image. Sometimes we don’t know until someone who says they bought PowerLung because they read about it!
