Your heart issues, whether they’ve been with you from birth or very recent, can often be improved with exercise. Cardiac rehabilitation is a physician-supervised program to help improve your symptoms and your heart function. You’ll gain confidence too. You may receive rehab if you’ve had a heart attack or heart surgery (or other heart procedures), but many people with other ongoing heart concerns visit us improve their quality of life and overall health.
Conditions or procedures that may benefit from cardiac rehab include:
- Chest pain
- Heart attack
- Post-open heart surgery
- Post-heart transplantation
- Balloon angioplasty
- Pacemaker
- Congenital heart disease
- Arrhythmias
- Rheumatic heart disease
