(e.g., CABG, valve replacement — improves recovery and mobility)
(Recovery and strengthening after a cardiac event)
(Narrowing of heart arteries, often leads to chest pain or heart attack)
(Reduced pumping capacity of the heart, leading to fatigue and breathlessness)
(Managed through aerobic activity and relaxation techniques)
(Supportive exercise programs tailored to heart rhythm conditions)
(Airway inflammation leading to wheezing and breathlessness — managed with breathing control)
(Regaining lung function after inflammation and infection)
(Chronic bronchitis and emphysema — major causes of breathlessness)
(Mucus buildup in damaged airways — treated with airway clearance techniques)
(Fatigue, breathlessness, and weakness after COVID — graded activity and lung retraining)
(Lung scarring causing progressive breathlessness — therapy aims to maintain function)
(Genetic disorder with thick mucus — managed with chest physiotherapy and drainage)
Therapy helps rebuild cardiovascular fitness, strengthens respiratory muscles, reduces the risk of future cardiac events, and improves confidence in daily activities through monitored exercise and education.
Techniques include breathing exercises, airway clearance techniques, graded exercise therapy, endurance training, strength training, posture correction, and patient education on energy conservation and lifestyle changes.
Yes, when supervised by trained physiotherapists. Exercises are carefully tailored and monitored to match your condition, ensuring safe and gradual improvement without overstraining the heart or lungs.
Programs typically last between 6 to 12 weeks but can vary depending on individual needs, recovery progress, and specific health goals.
Absolutely. Specific breathing techniques, posture improvements, and strengthening exercises can greatly enhance lung efficiency and reduce breathlessness during daily activities.
