Breathe Easier, Move Better, Live Stronger
Our Pulmonary Rehabilitation program is designed to support people living with chronic respiratory conditions to improve breathing, increase physical function, and enhance overall quality of life.
At Greater West Exercise Physiology, we take a holistic and evidence-based approach to help you manage your lung health with confidence.
What Is Pulmonary Rehabilitation?
Pulmonary Rehabilitation is a structured program combining exercise training, education, and self-management strategies for individuals with chronic lung conditions.
It’s suitable for people experiencing breathlessness, fatigue, or reduced activity levels due to their condition.
This program is delivered by Accredited Exercise Physiologists, ensuring all sessions are tailored to your individual needs, fitness level, and medical history.
