2. EECP Center Mumbai
Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP) therapy is a non-invasive treatment that helps improve blood flow to the heart and relieve symptoms of angina and heart failure.
EECP therapy uses inflatable cuffs wrapped around the legs to compress and decompress the blood vessels, promoting increased blood flow to the heart during the relaxation phase of the heartbeat.
Patients with chronic stable angina, heart failure, or those who are not suitable candidates for invasive procedures like angioplasty or bypass surgery may benefit from EECP therapy.

Each EECP session typically lasts about one hour and is usually conducted five days a week for a total of seven weeks.
