What is cardiorespiratory physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy for chronic heart and lung conditions — improving breathing, airway clearance, and cardiovascular fitness.

How cardiorespiratory physiotherapy works at Pegasus Peak

We screen your breathing pattern, oxygen response and exercise tolerance, then combine airway-clearance techniques, breathing retraining and paced, monitored exercise. Everything is progressed safely for your heart or lung condition, and we re-test your markers so progress is visible.

Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapy FAQs

Do I need a referral for cardiorespiratory physio?

Not for a private appointment. A GP CDM referral is only needed if you want Medicare to fund the sessions.

Is it covered by private health insurance?

Yes — it is claimable under most physiotherapy extras, with HICAPS on the spot.

Is exercise safe with a heart or lung condition?

Yes. We screen you first and monitor your effort, heart rate and oxygen response so the program stays within safe limits.

How is this different from respiratory rehab?

Cardiorespiratory physiotherapy covers both heart and lung conditions, while respiratory rehab focuses specifically on breathing and airway clearance.
