Outpatient Rehabilitation & Prevention, Engadin

Together with our partners, we offer comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation and prevention of cardiovascular and lung diseases in St. Moritz. The aim is to rebuild your physical performance and regain confidence in your body. You will learn how to avoid unhealthy habits, build up a healthy lifestyle and thus prevent a relapse. Together with our doctors and therapists, you will determine your individual rehabilitation programme.

“A merry heart lives longest.” William Shakespeare

“Mouvat” means “Move” in Romansh! – The important thing is your motivation and your will, because rehabilitation and prevention are not passive but active therapies. Patients should consciously come to terms with the experience of illness and learn what is good for their body and soul. 

The concept

In cardiac rehabilitation, Phase I begins immediately after the acute event in hospital. Phase II consists of a medically prescribed outpatient training and rehabilitation programme. Finally, phases III and IV serve to continue and maintain a healthy lifestyle in everyday life. Our concept begins in rehabilitation phase II and prepares you optimally for the rest of your life.

Indication and contra-indication
Cardiac rehabilitation is prescribed by the treating specialist team on site. They assess the indications and contra-indications. The individual programme is put together on the basis of a comprehensive initial evaluation.

Advantages of outpatient rehabilitation

  • Recovery in familiar surroundings
  • Involvement of the family and partner in lifestyle adjustments
