Thoracic & Cardiac Rehabilitation

Specialised Rehabilitation for Thoracic and Cardiac Recovery.

Recovering from thoracic or cardiac surgery requires more than rest—it calls for a carefully guided rehabilitation plan that helps restore lung function, reduce breathing effort, and build strength within your heart’s capacity.

At CW Physio’s Inc., our experienced team provides expert post-operative care to help you regain confidence, mobility, and vitality after surgery.

What is Thoracic & Cardiac Rehabilitation?

Thoracic and cardiac rehabilitation focuses on recovery following surgeries that affect the lungs and heart—from traumatic injuries like a lung hematoma to chronic conditions such as heart valve disease.

Physiotherapy plays a vital role in this process by:

• Promoting lung expansion and airway clearance
• Enhancing circulation and oxygen exchange
• Supporting safe and progressive mobility
• Preventing complications like pneumonia or deep vein thrombosis

Conditions We Treat:

• Spontaneous pneumothorax
• Lobectomies
• Pleural effusions
• Atelectasis (lung collapse)
• Coronary artery bypass or stent procedures
• Cardiac valve replacement surgery

Our Approach

Rehabilitation often begins early, even during your hospital stay, with gentle pulmonary exercises and carefully guided movement. These early interventions improve outcomes and reduce hospital stay duration.

After discharge, we continue your recovery journey with a structured home exercise program, tailored to support your ongoing improvement in strength, endurance, and quality of life.

Recover With Confidence

Your heart and lungs deserve focused care. With CW Physio’s by your side, you can breathe easier, move more freely, and return to the life you love—stronger than ever.
