Cardiac Rehabilitation Program in Lindale
The CHRISTUS cardiac rehabilitation program in Lindale aims to reduce the likelihood of future heart-related problems.
You will receive supervised exercise sessions, education on healthy lifestyle decisions, and support in adopting healthier lifestyle choices.
The goal is to improve exercise tolerance, relieve cardiac symptoms, enhance life quality, and reduce mental stress.
You will gain valuable knowledge and tools for managing your condition more effectively, leading to improved health outcomes.
Appropriate candidates
Research shows that participation in medically-supervised physical activity after a cardiac event can lower a person’s future risk of a heart attack, as well as help them live longer than a patient who does not participate in cardiac rehab. The chances for survival improve for those who take part in these life-saving programs.
A physician referral is required to participate in a cardiac rehab program. And your cardiologist or primary care provider can best determine if and when you are ready to begin. You may be a candidate if you have experienced any of the following:
- Recent heart attack
- Angioplasty and/or stent
- Heart bypass | Transplant | Valve surgery
- Stable angina | Chronic heart failure
