We support people with lung conditions including and not inclusive of:
  • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
  • Chronic Bronchitis
  • Emphysema
  • Bronchiectasis
  • Interstitial lung disease (ILD)
  • Asthma

If you have a respiratory condition, sometimes you can produce more sputum and this can increase your risk of a chest infection or impact your lung function. On some occasions simply coughing will not always clear the sputum from your smaller airways within your lungs, but using airway clearance techniques can help you achieve this.

Our respiratory physiotherapists will work alongside you to get you started on your personalised airway clearance plan.

Feeling short of breath can be worrying, but you don’t have to face it alone. With the right techniques and support, you can learn to manage breathlessness and feel more in control of your breathing.

Breathlessness (or dyspnoea) can happen for many reasons — including lung conditions such as COPD, asthma, bronchiectasis, or after illness or surgery. It may also occur with anxiety or reduced fitness. Whatever the cause, our goal is to help you breathe more comfortably and confidently in daily life.

Respiratory physiotherapists are specially trained to assess how your lungs, breathing muscles, and posture work together. We use evidence-based techniques to help you:

  • Breathe more efficiently
  • Stay active without becoming as breathless
  • Feel calmer and more in control when breathlessness occurs

Your first appointment includes a full assessment of your breathing pattern, symptoms, and lifestyle. Together, we’ll create a personalised plan to help you manage your breathlessness and get back and feel more confidence in doing the things you enjoy.
