Palliative Care Physical Therapy

Palliative Care Physical Therapy, particularly in oncology, focuses on improving the quality of life for patients with cancer. It aims to alleviate symptoms like pain, fatigue, and mobility issues while providing support throughout treatment. Therapists work with patients to enhance strength, mobility, and function, helping them manage side effects of cancer or its treatment. The goal is to promote comfort, independence, and emotional well-being, ensuring patients can engage in daily activities and enjoy life as much as possible, regardless of their prognosis.
