What is Chest Physiotherapy?
Chest physiotherapy will help you clean the mucus from your lungs and will assist a faster recovery with none or very little medication. A bronchial drainage will allow your lungs to be clear of obstructing mucus avoiding the spread of the infection. This drainage of mucus allows your body to fight the infection by using its energy to attack the virus or bacteria instead of fighting the production of phlegm thus helping a prompter recovery. It will bring you a definite respiratory relief that will promote a quick recovery in the best possible conditions.
For the chronic respiratory diseases, the different chest physiotherapy techniques can help for a better quality of life and controlling the attacks as you learn for example an effective abdominal breathing (ex asthma), how to drain your lungs from the thick obstructing mucus, relax your chest by stretching and strengthen your respiratory muscles in order to obtain a maximum breathing comfort in your everyday life.

What is Bronchiolitis and why we use the latest chest physiotherapy techniques in our practice in London
The bronchiolitis is a viral infectiondue to the RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) which causes the inflammation of the small bronchi. It is a contagious disease which is transmitted via air, nasal secretions, toys and hands. The primary symptoms are often a running nose and cough.
The baby will often feel weak during the bronchiolitis. This happens because mucus interferes with breathing, which reduces appetite and sleeping hours.Chest physiotherapy clears the lungs and respiratory ways, which allows the baby to breathe and sleep better, and increases his appetite. That also helps avoiding secondary pulmonary infections.
Chest physiotherapy will considerably reduce the duration and the intensity of the illness: you and your baby will certainly appreciate the benefits, especially during night time.

This mutation of the gene CFTR lets too much salt and water into cells causing thick and sticky mucus in tubes and airways. The cells that line the airways of the lungs make sputum or mucus that is thicker than normal.The airways of the lungs are clogged by the accumulation of mucus and results in inflammation.
The bacteria will eventually cause….
