Pulmonary Physical Therapy

 

In collaboration with our pulmonary medicine program, we offer physical therapy services to patients with respiratory conditions and other disorders that affect the lungs. We care for patients with a number of lung conditions, such as:

  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
  • Interstitial lung disease, a group of disorders that cause scarring of lung tissue
  • Pulmonary hypertension, a form of high blood pressure in the lungs
  • Restrictive lung disease, conditions that prevent the lungs from fully expanding with air

Improving quality of life for patients with lung diseases

Our physical therapists will work with you twice a week for about eight weeks. We’ll evaluate you thoroughly and work with you on a personalized physical therapy regimen to improve your physical performance and reduce your shortness of breath and stress. Your therapy plan likely will include:

  • Aerobic and strength training
  • Education on proper breathing mechanics
  • Education on how to manage your symptoms
  • Pacing and energy conservation
