Respiratory infections

What are respiratory infections

Respiratory infections are infections that affect the respiratory system, such as the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs. They may be mild, such as the common cold, but also more serious, such as bronchitis or pneumonia.

They are usually caused by viruses or bacteria and can significantly affect the quality of breathing and everyday life.

What symptoms may appear

Respiratory infections are often accompanied by a persistent cough, nasal congestion or runny nose, shortness of breath, a feeling of heaviness in the chest and intense fatigue. When secretions are not properly cleared, the airways become burdened and the recovery process is delayed.

How respiratory physiotherapy helps

Respiratory physiotherapy contributes to the effective clearing of the lungs and the restoration of normal respiratory function.

Through specialized techniques, we facilitate the removal of secretions, improve lung ventilation, reduce shortness of breath and accelerate recovery. Each program is personalized and adapted to the needs of each patient.

What is the hot towel technique?

At PhysioRaum, we apply a specialized technique using hot towels on the chest area. This technique makes use of the action of steam, which helps relax the airways and facilitate breathing.

At the same time, aromatic essential oils are used, contributing to decongestion and the cleansing of the respiratory system, enhancing overall relief from symptoms. The steam strengthens their action, offering comprehensive support for breathing.

Why choose respiratory physiotherapy

A persistent cough, a feeling of heaviness in the chest or secretions that are not easily cleared should not be ignored. When the airways are not properly cleared, the problem may worsen and lead to more serious conditions.

Respiratory physiotherapy helps effectively clear the lungs, reduce coughing and congestion, improve breathing and prevent complications.

Early intervention is crucial. We do not wait for the problem to progress, but address it properly from the beginning.

Our goal is to help you breathe comfortably, safely and with confidence in your everyday life.
