Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy
Breathe Better. Move Stronger. Live Healthier.
Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy is a specialized area of physiotherapy focused on improving the function of the heart and lungs through targeted rehabilitation. At URJA Physiotherapy Clinic, Dr. Pranjali Phulgirkar, a specialist in Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy, offers comprehensive care for patients with respiratory and cardiac conditions. Her evidence-based approach helps individuals regain strength, improve breathing capacity, and enhance endurance—enabling a better quality of life.
This therapy is crucial for managing conditions such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, bronchitis, interstitial lung disease, post-COVID lung complications, heart failure, coronary artery disease, and post-cardiac surgery recovery. It also plays a preventive role in individuals at risk of developing cardiac or pulmonary conditions due to sedentary lifestyles or pre-existing risk factors.
At URJA, patients receive personalized care that includes a combination of:
Breathing exercises to improve lung capacity and oxygen efficiency
Airway clearance techniques to reduce mucus build-up
Chest physiotherapy to enhance lung expansion
Cardiovascular endurance training to boost stamina
Postural correction and mobility exercises for better physical performance
Dr. Pranjali also works with post-operative patients to prevent complications such as pneumonia or deep vein thrombosis by encouraging early mobilization, deep breathing techniques, and guided physical activity. Pre-operative physiotherapy is also offered to prepare the patient’s body for surgery, ensuring quicker recovery and fewer complications post-surgery.
Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation isn’t just for hospital-based recovery—it’s also highly effective in home or clinic-based settings for long-term health maintenance. Regular sessions improve exercise tolerance, reduce shortness of breath, and increase physical independence.
Moreover, at URJA, patients also benefit from integrated care that includes yoga-based breathing techniques, nutritional advice, and lifestyle modification tips to complement physiotherapy. These holistic strategies support heart-lung function while promoting mental and emotional well-being.
Dr. Pranjali’s commitment to personalized, compassionate care ensures that each patient receives a tailored treatment plan suited to their health condition, lifestyle, and recovery goals.
Whether you’re recovering from a major cardiac event or managing a long-term respiratory condition, Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy at URJA empowers you to take control of your health—one breath and one step at a time.
