Our Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapist, Natasha Prokop, offers support for those with cardiac or respiratory conditions, whether chronic or after an acute illness. Through telerehab, these services typically only found in hospital settings, can be utilized in your home, to monitor your health and assist in safely maintaining your optimal function. 

 

A telerehab initial assessment focuses on your specific health and medical history, taking into account lifestyle factors, current limitations and your functional goals. Treatments may include breathing exercises for improved lung capacity, clearance exercises for maintaining optimal lung health, education on your condition, as well as monitored physical activity that is determined safe for you. Cardiorespiratory physiotherapy can help you improve your ability to manage your daily tasks, and recover your previous function after a sudden illness. 

 

Clients with the following conditions can benefit from cardiorespiratory physiotherapy: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis, cardiovascular disease, chronic heart failure, pneumonia, those recently discharged from hospital or recovering from illness.
