Enhanced External Counter Pulsation (EECP) is a safe, non-invasive outpatient treatment that improves blood flow by gently compressing your legs in rhythm with your heartbeat.
Inflatable cuffs wrapped around your lower extremities, squeeze sequentially your legs between heartbeats (diastole) to promote better blood flow and oxygen delivery to your heart, brain, kidneys, and other organs in a one-hour sessions.
EECP treatments have a profound impact, offering life-changing benefits to those with coronary artery disease (angina), other medical conditions (diabetes, erectile dysfunction, renal disease, etc.) and those healthy adults seeking fitness and performance improvement -without surgery or medications.
In 1993, Dr. Joe Caceres founded Buena Park Heart Center (BPHC).
In 2002, the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology issue guidelines on the treatment of angina, and the role of EECP therapy.
Dr. Caceres -an America’s Top Cardiologists awarded- pioneered the introduction of Enhanced External Counter Pulsation (EECP) in southern California and in 2007 the EECP program at BPHC was launched.
The first EECP symposium on refractory angina pectoris took place on October 29, 2014, in Anaheim, California. Dr. Rohit Arora, the principal investigator of the landmark randomized, multicenter clinical trial of EECP patients with stable angina pectoris was the keynote speaker.
EECP HEALTH is the largest provider of EECP therapy in the west of the United States, located in a state-of-the-art facility, with more than twenty EECP beds, serving thousands of patients to alleviate their symptoms, and restore their lives over 17 years.
EECP HEALTH is a leader in non-invasive options for patients with cardiac conditions who are not or poor candidates for coronary angioplasty and/or coronary artery bypass grafting surgery or continue to have symptoms despite the above procedures.
In 2021, we published –“Enhanced external counter pulsation: A unique treatment for the “No-Option” refractory angina patient.”
Since then, we have applied EECP therapy to other non-cardiac medical conditions such as restless leg syndrome, complications of diabetes mellitus, renal failure, erectile dysfunction, long COVID, etc. with excellent results.
Our experienced EECP HEALTH team focuses solely on providing EECP therapy, ensuring specialized and high-quality care, personalized attention, and flexible scheduling to improve patient outcomes.
