Cardiac Rehabilitation

Cardiac rehabilitation is one of the most effective treatments available to heart patients.

It gives heart patients a 26% greater chance of surviving in the first five years following diagnosis. 

It can reduce hospital admissions, lower blood pressure, cholesterol, anxiety and depression, therefore improving the patient’s quality of life.

It can teach patients how to manage their condition, thus reducing dependence upon GP visits and other NHS services.

Patients who regularly exercise in our Phase 4 cardiac classes are generally happier in their outlook and make fewer visits to their GP.

What we offer – Pulseworks Exercise Sessions

Health and Safety

Most advice given by the Government and health organisations, especially to senior citizens with underlying health conditions, and we will support this through our exercise classes.  We aim to help you with general fitness but in particular with your cardiac health.  Our cardiac instructors are fully qualified and may also support with advice.

Along with locally based face to face classes we have also introduced classes by Zoom, providing exercise for members who prefer to exercise at home.
