If you are diagnosed with lung disease, you may find it difficult to live your normal daily life without getting breathless or tired. You may also find that you lack energy, feel fatigued, and often get tired and exhausted.
Here comes the definitive role of Pulmonary Rehabilitation, which is designed to help you counter your breathlessness and feel stronger, better, and fitter at the same time.
This is a very new concept in the field of medicine & has the least awareness amongst the Medical & General Community. To your surprise, Physiotherapy can be tremendously helpful to those breathless people suffering from different Lung diseases like Asthma, COPD, Bronchiectasis, Interstitial Lung Diseases, Occupational Lung Diseases, Lung surgeries, etc. Patients exercise with constant Sp02 monitoring to ensure a safe level of oxygen during exercise.
At Mission Health, you will be assessed thoroughly, and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) is used to evaluate the functionality and capacity of the lungs. The unique combination of Aerobic Exercise Conditioning & Inspiratory Muscle Training gives amazing results in these patients. The program also includes Nutritional Counselling, Patient & Family education about disease management, Energy Conservation Techniques, Breathing Strategies & Psychological Counselling.
The Beauty of Pulmonary Rehab is that most people who underwent Pulmonary Rehab at Mission Health, were unable to walk even a few steps due to breathlessness, but they were now carry out their functional activities comfortably due to an increase in Exercise Tolerance & many other benefits, thus magically improving their quality of life. We have even weaned patients from oral steroids to inhalers to no medicines with our structured Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program.
