Chest Physiotherapy

Chest Physiotherapy is a specialized technique used to improve lung function and help clear mucus or secretions from the respiratory tract. It is commonly recommended for patients with conditions such as pneumonia, cystic fibrosis, chronic bronchitis, asthma, or after surgery when lung expansion is reduced. The therapy includes techniques like percussion, vibration, postural drainage, and breathing exercises, which enhance airway clearance and improve oxygen exchange. By loosening and mobilizing secretions, chest physiotherapy helps reduce the risk of lung infections, improves breathing efficiency, and supports overall respiratory health. It is often combined with medical treatment to promote faster recovery and better lung function.
