Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Central Health Physiotherapy offers an eight-week pulmonary rehabilitation course: physiotherapy to exercise your heart and circulation.
Through specific exercise and education we help you if you have chronic lung disease and experience increasing breathlessness and are not managing to do the things you once found easy.
For one hour, twice a week, the course includes: exercises to reduce symptoms and improve strength and endurance; teaches how to best manage your condition, maximise function and quality of life, the use of your inhaler, chest clearance techniques if you have problems with phlegm; methods of relaxation to save energy so that you can do the things you want, when you want.
