Heart & Lung Disease Program
ProHealth and Fitness’ Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program is tailored toward patients who do not require formal cardiac or pulmonary rehab, but whose physicians are comfortable with our unique approach to improving cardio-respiratory function through the use of progressive therapeutic exercise and activities under the care of a skilled clinician. Our staff constantly monitors vital signs, Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) through the Borg scale, and pulse oximetry. ProHealth utilizes valid and reliable outcome measures, such as Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV), the 6 minute walk test, and graded exercise tests are utilized to measure progress and return to function. Our clinical staff has worked closely with many of NYC’s premier Cardiologists, Pulmonologists, and Primary Care Physicians to promote a safe and progressive environment that promotes optimal patient outcomes.

“Dr. James, I never thought being tortured by young people could be so much fun. I needed to turn 90 and break my hip to figure this out.”
