Physical Therapy for Lungs: What to Expect

Delivering a successful rehab program for patients with chronic lung disease is a highly specialized process. Our program will begin with a complete physical assessment, but also an in-depth interview that considers your current lifestyle, medical history, needs, and unique circumstances.

Our pulmonary rehabilitation therapists offer oxygen therapy, supervised exercise facilities, nutritional guidance, education in self-care and symptom management, and training in breath control techniques. You’ll also receive help managing your medications, or modifications to the medications you’re taking.
