Paediatric Physiotherapy
Respiratory Conditions
Covers the issues which may arise due to existing pathology affecting the child's air way and lung fields
- Cystic fibrosis is a genetic condition which primarily causes the lungs to over produce thick sticky mucus. Physiotherapy (manual techniques, active cycle of breathing and/or autogenic drainage) alongside medication is required to prevent infections and help to keep the lung fields as clear as possible.
