Exercise on Referral

If you have a specific medical condition and are new to exercise then ask your GP about the referral scheme. If your GP agrees that you would benefit from a course of exercise then they can refer you to us to receive a comprehensive health and fitness assessment and a structured exercise programme. Activities include use of the gym, classes, swimming and specialised clinics. Our Healthy Measures clinic provides support, exercise and nutritional advice for those who need to lose weight.

Cardiac Rehab

The Stour Centre runs a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation programme for patients referred by the William Harvey Hospital after having a heart attack or undergoing heart surgery. The rehabilitation team consists of an Exercise Physiologist, a Cardiac Rehab Nurse Specialist, and a Physiotherapist. The initial part of the programme offers twice weekly circuit classes. This focuses on improving cardiovascular fitness under supervised and controlled conditions. This phase also includes an educational component in the form of weekly talks on subjects such as stress management and nutrition.
