Oncology Physical Therapy

Oncology Physical Therapy is a specialized area of physical therapy that focuses on helping cancer patients improve their physical function, strength, and overall well-being during and after cancer treatment. Therapists assess individual needs and develop personalized exercise and rehabilitation programs, addressing issues like fatigue, pain, and mobility challenges. The goal is to enhance quality of life, promote recovery, and help individuals regain independence. By targeting the physical side effects of cancer and its treatments, oncology physical therapists play a vital role in supporting patients through their cancer journey.
