Physiotherapy, Physical Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine

Chest and Respiratory physiotherapy

Physiotherapy techniques play an important part in assessing, treating and strengthening the respiratory system. Our physiotherapy team will help with a wide range of conditions affecting the heart and lungs, including arrhythmias, ischaemic heart disease, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and cystic fibrosis. In addition to aiding chest clearance and maximizing functional ability, cardio-pulmonary exercises can help to speed recovery and rehabilitation after general surgery and intensive care.
