exercise for angina patients

What is the ideal swimming pool temperature for angina patients needing cardiovascular exercise?

I’d be starting out with power walking in a shallow pool with somebody in attendance but the water needs to be warm enough so as not to make matters worse. Local indoor pool is about 32 C. Is that warm enough?

about 7-10 degrees below body temp.. So just warm enough to be comfortable and feel ok even when just getting in.. most pools set much colder so that it take rigorous swimming just to not feel cold anymore..- too warm though can be even more dangerous-BP can drop..

Not sure so check with Doc..
