What is EECP (Enhanced External Counterpulsation)?
EECP is a scientifically proven treatment method that increases blood flow to the heart muscle in individuals with coronary artery disease, without surgery, incisions, or anesthesia. Special cuffs placed on the legs inflate and deflate in sync with your heart rhythm; this rhythmic pressure increases blood flow to the heart and, over time, triggers the formation of new blood vessels (supporting the heart's own blood flow).
EECP offers a safe alternative for patients with high surgical risk, those with ongoing symptoms after bypass surgery, or those who are not suitable candidates for surgical treatment.

Real Experiences From Our Patients
I was a bit nervous when I started EECP treatment, but the team at the medical center was with me every step of the way. The sessions went smoothly, and I felt safe throughout.
Thanks to the warm atmosphere and attentive staff at the Kyrenia Medical Center, my treatment process was far more comfortable than I expected. Booking an appointment was also very easy.
The doctors patiently answered every question I had, and I felt well-informed throughout the process. I sincerely recommend it.
Thanks to the modern equipment and regular follow-up, I continued my treatment with confidence. I'd like to thank the team for their care.
I chose EECP because I was looking for a non-surgical option. The approach at the medical center was very professional, and I felt at ease.
