Pulmonary or Respiratory Rehabilitation is a programme of education, breathing techniques and exercise therapy to help you learn to breathe – and function – at the highest level possible. Your chest PT will teach you breathing exercises, positions to ease your breathlessness, give you tips on conserving energy, relaxation, travel, how to do everyday tasks with lesser shortness of breath and how to stay healthy and avoid COPD exacerbations or manage the asthmatic conditions.
