Do you have claudication (cramping pain in the legs brought about by activity, due to blocked arteries in the lower extremities)?  Exercise training has been shown to improve the walking ability in PAD patients that suffer from this type of pain. A physician referral is necessary for the “PAD SET” program.  Each qualifying patient must have a face to face visit with their physician and receive information regarding cardiovascular disease and PAD risk factor reduction.  The individualized program includes a closely monitored progressive exercise therapy.  The patient may expect 36, 60- minute sessions over a 12 week period.
