Spirometry in Colac
At Prosper Health, we offer accurate spirometry testing in Colac to help you assess and manage your lung function. Whether you’re living with asthma, COPD, bronchitis, or recovering from illness, spirometry provides vital information to support your respiratory care.
Respiratory health plays a critical role in your ability to stay active and pain-free. Our goal is to help you better understand how your lungs are performing and provide useful data for you and your GP to make informed treatment decisions.
Spirometry is a safe, non-invasive test that measures how much air you can breathe in and out, and how quickly you can do so. During the test, you’ll be asked to take a deep breath and blow into a handheld device that records your lung function.
This allows us to assess:
- Lung capacity
- Airflow rate
- Presence of obstruction or restriction
- Response to medications or treatments
The test is commonly used to help diagnose or monitor conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory disorders. It also assists in evaluating lung health before or after surgery, or as part of a broader rehab or return-to-sport program.
