WHAT IS A BREATHING TREATMENT?
A breathing treatment, also known as respiratory therapy or nebulizer treatment, is a medical procedure offered in Peoria, AZ to help individuals with respiratory conditions breathe more easily. It involves the administration of medication in the form of a mist or aerosol that is inhaled into the lungs. This is typically done using a device called a nebulizer, which converts liquid medication into a fine mist that can be inhaled through a mask or mouthpiece.
COMMONLY PRESCRIBED FOR VARIOUS CONDITIONS INCLUDING:
ASTHMA
People with asthma often use breathing treatments to quickly relieve symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. Medications such as bronchodilators (e.g., albuterol) are commonly administered via a nebulizer during asthma attacks.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
COPD includes conditions like chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Breathing treatments with bronchodilators and corticosteroids can help manage symptoms and improve lung function.
