@healthybon
I do percussion on my lungs/chest at the side of my breast bone .
I also am actually able to do what I would call a 'pounding' on my back at the side of my spine.
I do postural drainage in several types of positions.
I also use a type of massage mallet on my back at the sides of my spine. This helps me a great deal to loosen the mucus, get it up, and get up what I call mucus plugs.
Doing all this after, during or without nebulizing has helped a great deal.

Is there a site to go to that you can share that explains or shows what you have learned to do...The Squeeze.? How to do it.
I tried finding information showing how it is done but could not find anything.
So, if the squeeze is something totally different ,other than what we do with diaphragmatic breathing/air way clearance methods etc. etc. I would like to learn it.
Would greatly appreciate any information.
Thanks,
Barbara
