The Frenchman was admitted to hospital last Wednesday with chest pain, the cause of which was a dissection of the descending aorta, but his heart is now working perfectly according to Villa's club doctor, Mark Waller.
"I am extremely touched by all the messages I have received," Houllier said. "My condition is improving and extremely encouraging."
