Chest & Respiratory Physiotherapy

Chest physiotherapy at Nurture Physio in Gurgaon helps children whose chests stay congested — when secretions linger after infections like pneumonia or bronchiolitis, with asthma, or because a neuromuscular condition makes coughing weak. It supports your paediatrician's treatment (it isn't for the acute illness itself): gentle, age-appropriate airway-clearance techniques that ease breathing, speed recovery — and are taught to parents for home use.

Common questions

Is chest percussion safe for babies?
Performed by a trained paediatric physiotherapist with correct positioning and pressure, yes — it's a standard, well-tolerated technique. We also teach you the safe home version.
Can physiotherapy cure asthma?
No — asthma needs medical management. Physiotherapy improves breathing pattern, secretion clearance and exercise tolerance alongside your doctor's treatment.
