If you or someone you care for has trouble breathing, frequent chest tightness, wheezing, or heavy phlegm buildup — a nebuliser machine may offer real relief.
At Villa Surgical Limited, we often receive questions from customers about who should consider using a nebuliser. In this post, we’ll explain what a nebuliser does, how it works, and who might benefit most from owning one.
💨 What is a Nebuliser?
A nebuliser is a compact medical device that converts liquid medication into a fine mist that’s easy to inhale.
Unlike inhalers that require precise timing and coordination, nebulisers allow patients to breathe naturally while receiving medication — making them ideal for children, the elderly, or anyone struggling with inhalers.
Because of this, nebulisers are especially useful in treating asthma, bronchitis, COPD, and other respiratory conditions.
⚙️ How Does a Nebuliser Work?
A nebuliser has three main parts: a compressor, tubing, and a medicine cup. Here’s how it works:
-
The compressor pushes air through the liquid medication.
-
This turns the medicine into a mist or aerosol.
-
The mist is inhaled through a mouthpiece or mask directly into the lungs.
The process ensures fast and effective delivery of medication exactly where it’s needed most — your airways and lungs.

👨👩👧 Who Should Consider Using a Nebuliser?
A nebuliser may be suitable for:
-
Children with asthma or other breathing issues who can’t use inhalers properly.
-
Adults with chronic conditions like COPD or bronchitis.
-
Elderly individuals who struggle with coordination or fatigue.
-
Patients with infections or allergies that cause severe congestion or breathing difficulty.
-
Anyone recovering from respiratory illnesses that require consistent medication delivery.
In short, nebulisers make breathing treatments simple, efficient, and accessible for all age groups.
