Restoration Heart Care
What is EECP
Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP), is a non-surgical treatment option for individuals who experience symptoms from cardiovascular disease. It helps increase the flow of blood to your heart. EECP is FDA approved, covered by Medicare and clinical studies have shown 85% of patients treated with EECP® experience a reduction in angina and are able to return to a more active lifestyle.
How Does EECP Work
EECP eliminates chest pain by inflating and deflating pneumatic cuffs, timed off your heart rate, to increase the amount of blood flow back to the heart. The increased oxygen supplied by the new blood flow provides additional nourishment to the heart muscle thereby diminishing cardiac symptoms.
