Are you looking to lower your blood pressure, regain strength and exercise tolerance, or reduce symptoms of a cardiac event?
We'll begin your personalized program, by thoroughly reviewing your medical history, perform a physical exam and assess your physical abilities and limitations. Next we establish a customized, safe and effective program to meet your individual needs and goals.
Throughout your exercise sessions, our staff will monitor your blood pressure, heart rhythm and heart rate by electrocardiogram (EKG). Exercise sessions are designed to help you progress at a pace you find comfortable.
If you'd like to start a cardiac rehabilitation program, speak to your primary care provider for a referral.
Classes are held Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Education is offered once per week on Wednesdays for 30 minutes, either before or after the exercise session. Spouses or support persons are welcome.
