Pulmonary Rehabilitation is a comprehensive program designed to improve the physical and emotional well-being of individuals with chronic lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, interstitial lung disease, and pulmonary fibrosis. This multidisciplinary approach combines education, exercise training, nutritional counseling, and support to enhance lung function, reduce symptoms, and improve quality of life.
At Dr. Singal's Comprehensive Care Clinic, Dr. Namrata Singal, Senior Consultant Pulmonologist, leads an effective pulmonary rehabilitation program tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient.
Pulmonary rehabilitation is beneficial for anyone with chronic lung diseases, including COPD, asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and other respiratory conditions. It is especially helpful for patients experiencing shortness of breath, fatigue, and reduced exercise tolerance.
The duration of a pulmonary rehabilitation program varies based on individual needs and goals. Most programs typically last 6 to 12 weeks, with sessions occurring two to three times per week.
To begin a pulmonary rehabilitation program, you can schedule an appointment with Dr. Singal for a comprehensive evaluation. After assessing your lung function and medical history, a personalized rehabilitation plan will be created to meet your specific needs.
