Respiratory conditions can affect people of all ages and activity levels — from those living with chronic conditions such as COPD, chronic bronchitis, and bronchiectasis to people experiencing ongoing chest congestion, breathlessness, reduced exercise tolerance, or difficulty clearing mucus. When your lungs and airways aren’t functioning effectively, everyday activities can become more difficult and recurrent chest infections or exacerbations can significantly impact your quality of life.

At Back to Health Physiotherapy, our respiratory physiotherapy services help people manage a range of respiratory conditions and improve their ability to breathe, clear their chest, and stay active. Our physiotherapists take an individualised approach to assessment, considering your breathing pattern, airway clearance, exercise capacity, symptoms, and day-to-day function to develop a treatment plan that suits your needs.

Treatment is tailored to your condition and goals, and may include airway clearance techniques, breathing exercises, chest physiotherapy, exercise prescription, education, and self-management strategies. We also provide guidance on recognising and managing changes in your symptoms, helping you feel more confident managing your respiratory condition and reducing the impact it has on your daily life.
