Cardiac rehabilitation helps you recover physically and emotionally after a heart attack or heart surgery. It can also improve life for people with long-term heart problems like angina or coronary artery disease. With the support of dietitians, counselors and physical therapists, we help you live a healthier life and give your heart a new beat.
Heart recovery + wellness through cardiac rehabilitation
Your heart is a muscle, and keeping it healthy takes practice, dedication and time—just like any other muscle in your body. This is even more important if you're living with a condition that affects your heart.
With cardiac rehabilitation, our team of experts will guide you to improve your heart health. You'll do stretches and exercises like physical therapy. We'll also help you make lifestyle changes, like quitting tobacco, eating healthy and managing stress, so these habits become your new normal.
