Physiotherapy for patients with cardiovascular disorders with previous evaluation by cardiologist, include heart insufficiency, post myocardial infarction, peripheral artery disease and others
In the case of cardiovascular physiotherapy, the physiotherapist is responsible for prescribing the exercises that a patient with these characteristics needs. This is an approach with multiple benefits: it is not aggressive, it achieves a real change in the patient's life, it improves their autonomy, etc.
During a cardiovascular physiotherapy session, your physiotherapist will assess your cardiovascular health status and develop a personalized treatment plan that will include specific exercises, breathing techniques, and lifestyle changes to reduce risk factors.
It is important that you take precautions when performing cardiovascular physiotherapy, such as avoiding vigorous exercise if you feel fatigued or experience chest pain, informing your physiotherapist of any new symptoms or changes in existing symptoms, and avoiding physical activity if you feel dizzy or short of breath.
Through exercise and different specific techniques, we seek to increase cardiac capacity, improving the quality of life and functionality of the individual. On the other hand, through techniques belonging to respiratory physiotherapy we treat different pathologies.
