Respiratory Physical Therapy at Home: Providing Relief from Winter Infections for Adults, Seniors, and Children.
Winter puts a strain on our immune system. Bronchitis, the flu, pneumonia, and exacerbations of COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) are common and can be particularly debilitating for adults and seniors. When the airways become congested, fatigue sets in and breathing becomes difficult.
To relieve these symptoms and prevent complications, respiratory physical therapy is a highly effective paramedical treatment. And to help you conserve your energy, our healthcare professionals will come directly to your home.
Why seek respiratory physical therapy?
Respiratory physical therapy encompasses a range of manual techniques designed to clear the lungs and bronchi. Performed under a doctor’s prescription, these sessions help to:
- Clearing the airways: Help the patient cough up secretions that are blocking their breathing.
- Improve lung ventilation: Restore optimal respiratory function and reduce the feeling of shortness of breath.
- Preventing Rehospitalizations: By treating the infection at its source, we prevent the patient’s condition from worsening.
