Breathlessness is not the end of your recovery.

Absolutely. Family members are welcome in the assessment call and in the sessions. Many of Dr. Deepali's patients are elderly, and their family members are actively involved in their recovery.

For suitable patients, supervised tele-rehabilitation can be an effective alternative to centre-based care. Current pulmonary rehabilitation guidance supports offering a choice between centre-based rehabilitation and telerehabilitation for appropriate adults. Suitability depends on your diagnosis, stability, monitoring needs, technology access, and treating doctor's advice. PulseBreath sessions are live and supervised, not pre-recorded workouts.

Absolutely. The tele-rehabilitation program is available to patients across India. All you need is a smartphone or computer and a stable internet connection.

Discharge exercises provide a valuable starting point for recovery. Rehabilitation, however, is far more individualized. At PulseBreath, every program is tailored to your specific diagnosis, symptoms, functional capacity, heart rate response, oxygen levels, and personal goals. Your exercises are continuously monitored and progressed based on how your body responds, ensuring that you improve safely and effectively over time. Rather than following a fixed exercise sheet, you receive a structured rehabilitation plan that evolves with your recovery journey.

For most programs, no equipment is needed. Some exercises may use a chair, a resistance band, or light weights - all of which Dr. Deepali will guide you on before the program begins.

Most rehabilitation programs are designed for 8-12 weeks, with sessions typically conducted 2-3 times per week. The exact duration depends on your diagnosis, current functional capacity, rehabilitation goals, and how you progress throughout the program. During your initial assessment, Dr. Deepali will evaluate your condition and recommend a personalized rehabilitation plan, including the expected duration and frequency of sessions.

Exercise can be appropriate and beneficial for many stable cardiac and pulmonary conditions when it is individually prescribed and supervised. It is not automatically safe for every person or at every stage of illness. Dr. Deepali reviews your diagnosis, symptoms, medical advice, medications, and baseline capacity before recommending a program, and may ask for clearance from your treating doctor.
