Cardiac physiotherapy
Rehabilitation programs for recovery and prevention of cardiovascular conditions
Cardiac physiotherapy and rehabilitation is a specialized approach designed to support recovery, prevent complications, and maintain physical health in people with cardiovascular conditions or those recovering from heart surgery or acute events such as a heart attack. Cardiac rehabilitation physiotherapy focuses on gradually increasing physical activity to strengthen the heart and improve circulation. It can benefit individuals with conditions such as angina, heart failure, ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, aortic aneurysm, pericarditis, myocarditis, atherosclerosis, or peripheral artery disease.
Today, cardiac rehabilitation plays a central role in helping patients fully recover, both clinically and functionally, while significantly lowering the risk of future cardiac events.
At the Kinetic Center, our experienced physiotherapists develop personalized programs based on each patient’s diagnosis, working closely with cardiologists and other healthcare professionals. The rehabilitation process may include breathing exercises, therapeutic movement, and supervised aerobic activity aimed at gradually improving cardiovascular endurance, enhancing heart function, and restoring independence in daily life.
Following surgery or an acute cardiac episode, when rest is initially required, rehabilitation may begin at home with passive therapies. As the patient’s condition improves, we progress to assisted exercises and, eventually, to active training, either one-on-one or in small groups, using the fully equipped facilities in our center.
Our goal is to provide an effective, safe, and timely rehabilitation pathway that helps each person regain strength, confidence, and energy, returning to everyday life with greater ease and peace of mind.
