I don't think they'll do it where you're at, but here we have a program called lung expansion protocol program. Basically they take the portable ventilator units and issue them to high-level quadriplegics like myself. Every day I spend 20 to 25 minutes lying in my bed doing lung extension exercises with the ventilator.
It's really simple. I also utilize two medications to help expand the Longs, but this can also be achieved using saline. This has helped me exercise of my lungs and give me a lot more energy to breath with.
