Pulmonary rehabilitation Melbourne
For people with chronic lung disease, research shows pulmonary rehabilitation is one of the most effective ways to enhance your breathing and wellbeing. It can decrease the frequency of COPD flare-ups, reduce hospitalisations and improve your exercise tolerance.1
This adds up to increased independence and better capacity to do the things that matter, like taking care of yourself and enjoying family and leisure activities.
Cardiac rehabilitation Melbourne
If you have a heart condition or have experienced a cardiac event, research shows cardiac rehab can support your recovery and reduce your risk of experiencing future problems.
It involves making lifestyle changes that support heart health, including education, dietary changes and a tailored exercise program to strengthen your heart.
We can support you with a personalised and supervised home-based exercise program and education about your condition.
