Detailed explanation-1: -Air Shifts-To maintain chest mobility or expand the chest from ½ inch to as much as 2 inches, patients with poor chest wall mobility and intercostal weakness should inhale maximally, close the glottis, and relax the diaphragm to shift the air from the lower to the upper thorax, every day.
Detailed explanation-2: -When the lungs exhale, the diaphragm relaxes, and the volume of the thoracic cavity decreases, while the pressure within it increases. As a result, the lungs contract and air is forced out.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ensure that you are sitting on a comfortable chair or laying on a bed. Take a breath in for 4 seconds (through the nose if possible). Hold the breath for 2 seconds. Release the breath taking 6 seconds (through the nose if possible), then pause slightly before breathing in again. More items
