Flutter - Mucus Clearance Device
Excessive
mucus in the lungs not only makes breathing more difficult, but if allowed
to
build up leads to infection and lung damage. Stressful and strenuous coughing
may help to clear the obstructions, but this is not pleasant for the person
concerned, or relatives. 
Traditionally, physiotherapy has been one of the few ways to gain help - the Flutter now brings a new option to the problem of clearing mucus congestion. Regular sessions with the Flutter of between 5 and 15 minutes produce a beneficial effect, equivalent to that delivered by physiotherapy techniques.

Flutter is a palm-sized device that requires no external power supply or batteries. It can be used in the home or in the workplace. Whenever there's a need to relieve congestion, the Flutter is at hand. |
|
The user simply exhales a number of times into the mouthpiece of the Flutter - causing a steel ball to vibrate in the casing. The pressure of blowing against this steel ball, and the vibrations that it makes travel back into the lungs, where they start to have a positive effect. |
|
These vibrations affect all the branches of the airways, and like "shaking apples from the branches of a tree", the mucus is loosened. |
|
Whilst this is happening, the changes in air pressure that make the steel ball move are keeping small airways open, and allowing air to move throughout the lungs. |
|
As a result of this movement, mucus is moved out from where it was previously stuck, into the larger airways - where ordinary, gentle coughing becomes very effective in getting rid of it. |
|
Regular use of the Flutter has helped thousands of people "clear their chest" with ease, and is recognized as an effective method to reduce the complications associated with excess mucus production |
