What is Respiratory Rehab?
Respiratory Rehab, also known as Pulmonary Rehabilitation, is an evidence-based intervention specifically designed for individuals with chronic lung disease. This comprehensive program aims to alleviate symptoms such as shortness of breath, weakness, lethargy, and reduced activities of daily living. Our tailored respiratory therapist-led rehabilitation plan is designed to improve your quality of life, decrease healthcare utilisation, and promote overall well-being.
At Respiratory Rehab, we understand that traditional rehabilitation programs may present barriers to access and sustainability. Factors such as long waiting lists, inflexible appointment times, inconvenient locations, limited parking, or discomfort with group exercise can hinder participation. To overcome these challenges, we offer both virtual and home-based pulmonary rehabilitation as a convenient and effective alternative. Our virtual and home-based program is supported by evidence-based practices, ensuring that you receive optimal care in the comfort of your own home at a time of your choosing.
Our comprehensive services include:
Assessment and Evaluation:
