Games to Motivate Children With Cystic Fibrosis to Do Lung Exercises
The importance of compliance
Unfortunately, many people stop doing it or do not follow the schedule that they should. Being compliant with a physiotherapy treatment plan can be even more difficult for children than it is for adults. It is boring, and in some cases, needs to be done three times a day for twenty minutes. One article discusses that children with CF have said that physiotherapy is worse than having to go to the hospital, having an IV, and some even said that it’s worse than having CF in the first place. How hard must it be for parents to get their kids to do an exercise that they hate more than the disease it is trying to help?
