Cardiac Rehabilitation is a medically supervised exercise and education
program that helps you to safely improve your heart health and overall
health while recovering from a cardiac event. Both the
American Heart Association and
American College of Cardiology recommend cardiac rehab programs for patients with heart disease or who
have needed heart surgery.
For most anyone who has had a heart attack or a bypass operation, Cardiac
Rehab is an effective way to help prevent another one. It is clinically
proven to improve a cardiac patient's quality of life and to reduce the
recurrence of subsequent heart attacks and related diseases.
Our Cardiac Rehab program works with patients to develop an exercise program
that includes activities that they enjoy, making class sessions both fun
and effective.
The program offers:
- Nutrition counseling
- Weight reduction
- Diabetes management
- Stress management
- Smoking cessation
- Medication support
- Education and consultation pertaining to lifestyle change
