Vest Therapy

Vest therapy, also known as high-frequency chest wall oscillation, is a treatment that uses a special vest equipped with vibrations to loosen and clear mucus from the lungs. It works by applying rapid vibrations that help mobilize mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up or clear naturally. This technique is often used by people with respiratory conditions like cystic fibrosis or chronic bronchitis to improve lung function, reduce infections, and enhance breathing comfort. The therapy is non-invasive and typically performed for a set period each day, offering an effective way to assist mucus clearance without the need for suctioning.
