Pulmonary Rehab
On this page:
Pulmonary Rehabilitation has been shown to improve the lives of patients with long term respiratory conditions and help manage breathlessness as well as improvements in their general health.
In each group we have up to 16 people all with lung conditions and suffer with similar symptoms. Our pulmonary rehabilitation team will guide you through a tailor made exercise program and regularly review your progress to help you achieve your goals. There are bi-weekly education sessions to help you understand and manage your condition. Topics include managing your breathing, healthy eating, stress management and how to manage flair ups of your condition. It’s also a great opportunity to meet other people with lung conditions and share experiences. This is a patient-centred approach and we work with you to promote your wellbeing.
We have 3 sites across Wandsworth:
- Cardiopulmonary Gym, Atkinson Morley Wing, St George’s Hospital
- Roehampton Leisure Centre
- Latchmere Leisure Centre
We provide a six to eight-week exercise and education programme that takes place twice a week, in line with NICE and British Thoracic Society guidelines.
