Rehabilitation has two major parts, first is the exercise training and the counseling itself. In order to strengthen the muscles and improve the stamina, physicians are recommending having a daily exercise regimen. The exercise plan given is based on one’s individuality, ability, and interest. This may vary so before hitting the gym, consult your cardiologist about this. On the other hand, counseling will help you understand your heart condition. It will also help you be trained in coping with stress and adjusting to a new lifestyle so you have better perception on how to deal with your fears in the future.
