Bridging the Cardiac Care Gap: How Virtual Exercise Counselling Can Support Heart Health

Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death across Canada, the United States, and Europe.

At the Online Exercise Clinic, we believe that virtual, individualized, and evidence-based exercise counselling can help fill a growing gap in cardiac care — one that continues to leave too many people behind.
