Physical Therapy is Good for The Heart! Are you as healthy as you should be? For most people with chronic ailments such as diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and pain, walking and exercising can be difficult enough. With inactivity, these chronic diseases lead to a downward spiral of worsening health and the need for more aggressive medication management. Numerous studies demonstrate the power of activity in reducing a multitude of symptoms and improving long-term health. Not only does this improve your response to treatment but also reduces the need for medications.

If you’re 40 or older, or if you have high blood pressure, check it every year. 3. Move more.To keep it simple, you can aim for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week of moderate exercise. Even if you exercise for 30 minutes a day, being sedentary for the other 23 1/2 hours is really bad for your heart. 4. Slash saturated fats.To help your heart’s arteries, cut down on saturated fats, which are mainly found in meat and full-fat dairy products. Choose leaner cuts and reduced-fat options. 5. Find out if you have diabetes. Millions of people don’t know that they have this condition.That’s risky because over time, high blood sugar damages arteries and makes heart disease more likely.
