Pulmonary Rehabilitation

Maplewood’s team strives to improve your pulmonary function and quality of life by relieving your breathing challenges with our pulmonary rehabilitation professionals.

An individualized evaluation of ability and need is supervised by a physician and performed by a team of therapists, nurses, dietitians, social workers and specialists. The plan will consist of: exercise and lifestyle changes, nutritional counseling, energy-conserving techniques, breathing strategies and education about or related to your respiratory condition.
