Persecutions of Buteyko MDs in Siberia by GULAG KGB agents

It is well known and documented that Dr. Konstantin Buteyko, MD, PhD was severely persecuted in Siberia by some mysterious Mafia who also organized several attempts to assassinate him. You can find these details in the Dr. Buteyko Trilogy written by close Dr. Buteyko's friend Sergey Altoukhov. The persecution also took place during the 1960-90's against about 100 Soviet MDs trained by Dr. Buteyko. These were exceptionally healthy and effective MDs since nearly each of them had around 60 seconds or more for the body-oxygen test and had years of experience in teaching the method.

Almost every Siberian MD had hundreds of patients successfully treated with the Buteyko method and every doctor listed below reported their amazing success during the 2nd Conference of breathing doctors in 1990 (published in the book "Buteyko method. Its application in clinical practice", 224 pages, edited by K.P. Buteyko, 1991, 2nd edition, Titul, Odessa). However, virtually all Siberian MDs stopped teaching the Buteyko method in Siberia due to dirty tricks and persecutions organized by GULAG KGB agents. Many of these doctors are still working in medicine, often in the same positions. Some moved to natural holistic or spiritual organizations, or organizations involved in physical education, but none of old Buteyko’s Siberian medical colleagues, in spite of their obvious passion for the method, according to available information, practice the method now.

Medical doctors persecutedHere are top Buteyko doctors from Siberia who, based on their own experience with hundreds of patients, first, reported that the Buteyko breathing could cure such conditions as diabetes, asthma, heart disease, and so on, second, stopped practicing the Buteyko method in Siberia:

Among those, who are still practicing the Buteyko method, are those who moved out of Siberia:
- Sergey N. Paschenko, assistant to Faculty of Operative Surgery of Trauma Anatomy of the Zaporozhye Medical Institute, Ukraine (now at Zaporozhskij State Institute of Further Medical Education, Ukraine - author of the recent published controlled clinical trial on breast cancer)
- Natalia A. Lapa, physical education physician, Novosibirsk Children Hospital No. 8 (moved to the UK many years ago and is still teaching Buteyko there: "The Kingston Natural Healing Centre in SW-London, established in 1983, offers BBT courses for small groups as well as one-to-one sessions. Our therapists: Dr. Natalia Lapa trained under Prof. Buteyko in 1985 and has worked in his clinic" - Source: http://www.infoholix.net/category.php?mId=87")
- Sergey Altoukhov (moved out from Siberia to Ukraine, his website is http://www.mbuteyko.ru/ and he is the author of the famous Dr. Buteyko Trilogy, a historical documentary of Dr. Buteyko's life and Buteyko movement in the USSR and Russia).

The tactic of persecutions likely involved various security intelligence activities: dirty tricks, murder or poisoning of patients or their children (when they start the new therapy), "promotion" of other nearly useless health therapies, and so forth.
