Online or telehealth-based pulmonary rehab is a growing option. A MyCOPDTeam member shared: "Found an online pulmonary rehab telemedicine which seems cool. I'm waiting to have my doctor say if it's OK to join."
That's actually great advice — always check with your doctor before starting any new program, especially a paid one. Here's what to look for in any good pulmonary rehab or exercise program for COPD:
- Exercise components — stretching, strengthening, and aerobic activity like walking or cycling
- Breathing techniques to manage breathlessness
- Education on medications, oxygen use, and preventing flare-ups
- Nutrition and mental health support
- Personalized goals based on your health needs
On cost — COPD treatment expenses are a real burden. Before committing to a pricey program, it's worth asking your doctor if a covered pulmonary rehab program is available to you first.
