Respiratory and chest physiotherapy is hands-on airway clearance for children and adults with conditions like bronchiolitis, pneumonia, cystic fibrosis, and recovery after surgery. Dr. Hymavathi Polisetti uses drainage positions and guided breathing to help loosen and move secretions, with a routine you can also run at home.
We go over the diagnosis your doctor gave, what the cough sounds like, and when it is worst. This tells us which drainage positions and how much percussion will actually help, and what to leave alone.
Drainage positions paired with gentle percussion to move secretions, then active cycle of breathing to bring them up. For younger children this is taught as a game using bubbles, candles, or pinwheels to cue the breath.
You leave with a printed card of the day's sequence so both parents, or an adult patient, can run the same routine at home between visits. Nothing on it needs equipment you do not already have.
As the cough settles or a flare passes, we change the positions and the cadence. Some need longer, we will tell you which at the visit, not on the website.
No. The same airway clearance, drainage positions, active cycle of breathing, and a home routine, works for children and adults. For young children we cue the breathing with bubbles or a pinwheel so it feels like a game.
It does not cure the underlying condition. It helps clear secretions and supports easier breathing as part of the plan your doctor sets. We work alongside that care, we do not replace it.
Yes, that is the goal. You leave with a printed card of the sequence so you can run it at home, and we check and adjust the technique on each visit so you are doing it correctly.
