Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) is an individualized chronic disease management program of exercise, education and counselling designed to help you live a healthier lifestyle and reduce your risk of future heart events and health problems.

Our program is here to support you in improving your heart health. We offer education on your heart and heart medications, diet and exercise. We offer one-on-one assessment of your heart health by a doctor and other members of our team. You will have the chance to meet other patients who have gone through the same experience as you when you come in for our sessions in the gym.

Our aim through the cardiac rehabilitation program is to help you:

Prevent further heart problems

Reduce your symptoms

Increase energy and vitality

Answer questions you and your family may have about your medications

Improve your future health

Patients who come to rehab programs, including our program, really appreciate having their questions answered, feeling more energy and confidence. Patients who come have lower chances of going back to the hospital for repeat heart problems too.

Take Your Health to Heart
