Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy in Cornelia

Breathe Easier and Build Endurance with Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy in Cornelia

Why Choose Cardiopulmonary Therapy in Cornelia?

Cardiopulmonary therapy supports your heart and lung health through targeted movement, breathing strategies, and stamina-building exercises. At Age Fit, we work closely with older adults and individuals managing long-term conditions to create safe, structured programs that match their pace and personal goals.

Our therapy can help with:

• COPD and Chronic Respiratory Conditions – Learn to manage symptoms and breathe more efficiently.
• Heart Disease and Post-Cardiac Rehab – Safely build endurance and restore energy after a cardiac event.
• Post-COVID Recovery – Regain strength, mobility, and lung capacity after illness or hospitalization.
• Low Energy or Deconditioning – Improve physical function after periods of inactivity or health setbacks.

Without guided therapy, many people continue to experience fatigue and breathlessness that limit independence. We help you take proactive steps toward long-term improvement.
