How Does Hydrapep Work?
Hydrapep Bubble PEP is an easy way to help you clear mucus (phlegm) from your lungs. This can help you breathe better.
PEP stands for Positive Expiratory Pressure. Blowing bubbles through the tubing into the water creates pressure in the lungs and airways, which helps keep them open. This helps to move more air in and out of the lungs.
The vibration from the bubbles helps to break up the mucus (phlegm), and the increased air flow helps to move phlegm out of the lungs into the airways. From here, it can be coughed up.
How Can Hydrapep Help Me?
Hydrapep is the easiest way to perform your respiratory therapy. It helps open the airways and move more air in and out of the lungs. This can help in the treatment of asthma, COPD and other respiratory illnesses, and in the delivery of bronchodilators (medication).
Hydrapep also exercises the lungs, as you blow against the pressure of the water. By changing the amount of water in the bottle, you change how much pressure is created in the airways.
