Percussion Vests: Are you using one? Is it working for you?

Anyone willing to guess how many “regulars” on this forum use a vest?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

I thought you only use the vest wuen you are clearing your lungs with the aerobika. Is this wrong?

There are any number of ways to use a vest. I have a smart vest that I use together with saline nebulizing. My pulmo team approved that, saying "we give you all the tools, you use them how it's best for you." Every case of bronchiectasis/ NTM is different.
Others nebulize and then use the vest. I don't know about using the vet with an aerobika since both vibrate your lungs . Were you advised by a doctor or respiratory therapist? The smart vest company sends a trainer who can also advise you.
