Cardio–Respiratory Physiotherapy is a specialized branch of physiotherapy dedicated to the prevention, assessment, and management of cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders. It plays a critical role in restoring functional capacity and enhancing the quality of life in individuals affected by cardiac and respiratory diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, bronchiectasis, post-operative pulmonary complications, and heart failure.

This discipline emphasizes both acute care and long-term rehabilitation, addressing patients in critical care units, outpatient settings, and community health environments. The program is designed to cultivate reflective, evidence-based practitioners equipped with advanced clinical reasoning and therapeutic skills in the field of cardio–respiratory care.
