Private respiratory physiotherapy service in Glasgow

The goal of a respiratory physiotherapy session in Glasgow is to address your lung problems, working to create a plan to manage your symptoms on a daily basis to improve your quality of life. Most often, you will undertake respiratory physiotherapy in combination with medication to improve your lung capacity and in turn strengthen your respiratory muscles. The overall goal, whilst to manage your symptoms, is to help you breathe more freely. 

There are a number of areas of which the respiratory physiotherapy service can help you. You will work in tandem with your physiotherapist to identify how we can achieve the best outcomes for you by significantly improving your lung strength and quality. This can be done through helping you cope better with a shortness of breath, clearing secretions, exercising, performing difficult to perform tasks, and overcoming tiredness associated with your shortness of breath. Some techniques you may benefit from include breathing exercises, manageable activities and exercise, secretion clearance techniques, relaxation techniques, and finally advice on positions aimed at relieving breathlessness. 

At Ross Hall Clinic Braehead, we are also home to a unique respiratory laboratory which is the only one of its kind available privately in Scotland. If required, you can be referred onto one of our respiratory physiologists which can enable you to use these facilities and better understand your condition, before going on to formulate a tailored treatment plan for managing your disorder.
