Pulmonary rehabilitation is a comprehensive program designed for individuals with chronic lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, or interstitial lung disease. The goal of pulmonary rehabilitation is to improve lung function, reduce symptoms like shortness of breath, and enhance overall quality of life through exercise, education, and breathing techniques.

The program typically includes aerobic exercise to improve cardiovascular fitness, strength training, breathing exercises to optimize lung function, and education on managing symptoms and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Pulmonary rehabilitation helps patients better manage their condition and improves their ability to perform daily activities.

Pulmonary rehabilitation is an essential part of managing chronic lung conditions, providing patients with tools to improve their lung health, reduce exacerbations, and maintain independence.
