Summary | Physiotherapy after a heart attack

Summary

In summary, physiotherapy in the therapy after a heart attack forms an important basis not only for regaining physical fitness and reintegration into everyday life, but also creates an awareness of preventive measures and a better awareness of one’s own body, in order to correctly interpret the body’s warning signs in an emergency and prevent the recurrence of a heart attack. The physiotherapy program therefore includes behavioral training in addition to movement training and cardiovascular exercises. Through regular physical exercise, many patients find it easier to return to their daily routine and gain confidence in their own body more quickly.
