Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Your path to healthier breathing starts here. Our team walks alongside you to ensure that your patient-focused treatment plan is safe and effective.
Improve Your Quality of Life
Healthy breathing can mean a better quality of life. Willis Knighton Pulmonary Rehabilitation is an eight- to 10-week outpatient program that meets two to three times a week at scheduled times. All medical testing and classes happen at two Willis Knighton Fitness Centers in Shreveport and one in Bossier City.
You’ll get personal attention, exercise and education. The goal is to help patients with chronic pulmonary disease enjoy more comfortable and satisfying lifestyles. Upon referral by their doctors, patients are taught to:
- Re-train their breathing
- Exercise to increase strength and endurance
- Accurately use prescribed medicines and therapies
- Build strength and increase health through good nutrition
- Relax and control stressful situations
- Reduce dependence on others
- Program staff offer guidance to families about how they can help loved ones through positive support.
