Our primary area of expertise is neuromuscular respiratory therapy, with a special emphasis on treating patients with ALS / Lou Gehrig’s disease and muscular dystrophy. Our innovative therapy techniques extend the lives of patients with neuromuscular disorders and can dramatically improve quality of life compared to standard treatment methods.

We want to bring the benefits of our highly effective respiratory therapy to patients around the world. Clear Lung Therapies President and CEO Richard Murray, who helped develop our therapy techniques, is often requested as a speaker and trainer at local and international industry events and healthcare conferences. We also provide respiratory training in a variety of formats, including classroom training, individual training, onsite training programs and training via video platforms.

People with neuromuscular conditions and spinal cord injuries have difficulty breathing because their muscles are not strong enough to support healthy lung function. Pulmonary rehabilitation helps to open and expand the lungs, making it easier to breathe. In addition to respiratory rehabilitation, Clear Lung Therapies also provides education and disease management, helping people with chronic diseases learn how to better manage their conditions so they can live longer, healthier, and more fulfilling lives.

When patients are placed on a ventilator or undergo a tracheostomy in the hospital, the transition to home care can be difficult—for patients and caregivers. Often, loved ones, family members and other caregivers are not given the education or support they need to feel confident in providing care. Clear Lung Therapies can support you through this adjustment. With successful therapy, some patients are eventually able to transition off ventilator / tracheostomy support. When patients can breathe on their own, they are free to enjoy a much more comfortable life.

Spinal cord injury patients are often placed on life support because their bodies are paralyzed, and they are unable to breathe on their own. However, when their lungs are cleared, their breathing ability drastically improves, along with their potential for a better quality of life. Over the years, we have seen many spinal cord injury patients successfully transition off life support—even if they were told this would never be possible.

Home health agencies are a critical lifeline for patients—and we are committed to supporting these vital caregivers with advanced respiratory therapy training and support. We provide a wide range of respiratory therapy services to home health agencies, including training, patient evaluation, care planning, and contract respiratory care.

We recognize that family members and caregivers are our patients’ greatest advocates. Unfortunately, hospitals often discharge patients without providing their caregivers with adequate training, education and support to provide follow-up care. At Clear Lung Therapies, we understand what you are going through—and we want to make it easier for you to care for your loved ones. We are happy to offer respiratory homecare training for family members and caregivers, so you can feel confident you’re providing the best possible care, leading to the best possible results.

Tracheostomy training and education is critical to prevent infections, ensure a clear airway, and respond to potential complications. Clear Lung Therapies provides hands-on training, ensuring caregivers feel comfortable and competent.

Clear Lung Therapies will work with your physician to develop care plans and treatments, provide training as needed, and ensure follow up care.

We provide specialized training to fire and paramedic teams, including vent and tracheostomy training.

With decades of experience in respiratory therapy, we can provide training and education on the use of invasive ventilators as well as non-invasive ventilators, within home and clinical settings.
