Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disorder that is most commonly a combination of chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Chronic bronchitis is a lasting productive cough and emphysema marks changes to the physiology of the lungs. COPD is increasingly common with an estimated 210 million cases world wide, according to the World Health Organization.

As health care professionals have recognized the high prevalence of COPD in recent years, research and funding have gone into developing better treatment strategies. Research shows that a combined regimen of exercise, healthy diet, and stress management is essential to complement an early and aggressive medication plan. In a 2006 systematic review, if was found that pulmonary rehab reduced shortness of breath and fatigue while improving mood and giving patients a sense of control over the health.

At Liberation Fitness we have a team of physicians, nurses, mental health professionals, and clinical exercise specialists to help you develop and maintain a personalized program to effectively treat COPD and slow disease progression. We offer a controlled environment with clinical exercise specialists trained to look for signs and symptoms of flare-ups and to guide you through a moderate, regular exercise routine to improve your cardiorespiratory fitness, range of motion, strength, and balance.
