Baby Chest Physiotherapy to Make Breathing Easier- A French Technique that Works

Baby chest physiotherapy is a special therapy which uses specific techniques to loosen and clear mucus from the chest. This treatment helps to clear the baby’s airways and will help the baby to feed better, breathe more easily and let everyone have a peaceful night’s sleep.

This technique is widely used in France and yet seldom used in the UK. This treatment can help babies with bronchiolitis, children with asthma or more serious conditions such as cystic fibrosis.

What do chest paediatric physios do? They assist in the evacuation of secretions blocking the airways which will help the child to breathe more easily. For more chronic conditions, physio may help prevent or delay damage to their growing lungs.

The physio will evaluate and monitor respiratory distress signs, use specific techniques to free the airways and give fun breathing exercises for older children.
