COPD Tip: Take Control of Your Breath! ✨
Breathlessness can be scary, but you have tools to manage it! As your physio, I want to empower you with rest positions that help you recover faster.
By using a position that supports your upper body, you take the load off your breathing muscles, making each breath easier. Think of it as giving your lungs a mini-rest break!Remember to try and relax your neck and shoulder muscles in all these positions!
Disclaimer: These are general tips. Always consult your healthcare provider or physiotherapist for a personalized breathlessness management plan.
