It's Almost Pulmonary Week! Here's How You Can Breathe Stronger

In honor of National Pulmonary Rehab Week (3/13/16-3/19/16), FutureCare Cherrywood's BreatheStrong program is making a difference.

Pulmonary Rehabilitation Week 2016 is coming up! From March 13 through March 19, there is a national push to educate our community about the role of pulmonary rehabilitation in enhancing the quality of life of individuals with lung disease.

FutureCare Cherrywood, located in Reisterstown, MD, has been helping people "Breathe Stronger" since 2010. They offer a unique program that helps people with chronic breathing problems through stress management, using the harmonica (as a fun breathing exercise!) , energy conservation, and education of patient and family.

The program is lead by Dr. Michael Lansing who was named one of Baltimore’s top doctors for 2015 by Baltimore Magazine.
