Oncological Rehabilitation
Oncological Rehabilitation is an integral part of your treatment plan if you have been diagnosed with cancer. You can participate in rehabilitation immediately after medical treatment or in between your therapies. Rehabilitation can also be beneficial for you, if you are in remission, or you are a long-term cancer survivor.
Our program can help you regain your mobility, strength, and endurance, reclaim your independence, reduce your potential stress and anxiety, and preserve your energy, in order to continue to participate in your daily activities and the ones you love.
Physical and Occupational Therapy
We can help you build your mobility, strength, and endurance by establishing and guiding you through an efficient and individualized exercise program. We can also help you regain your functional independence in order to participate in your daily activities with most efficiency.
Some of our Physical Therapists are also Certified Lymphedema Specialists who use decongestive techniques to stimulate the lymphatic system and support movement of lymphatic fluid in order to reduce pain and swelling and restore range of motion and strength. Our Physical Therapists can also help provide you with breathing techniques for stress and anxiety management.
Speech and Language Pathology
Our Speech and language pathologist has worked with patients who have a diagnosis of Brain, Head, and Neck Cancer. She uses various techniques that can help with speech, language, cognition, voice, and swallowing deficits that may have occurred as a result of cancer, treatment interventions you may be going through, or those you have completed. ​
Massage Therapy
Our Massage Therapist can help reduce symptoms and side effects that may be caused by cancer or the treatment interventions. Massage therapy can help reduce pain, decrease inflammation and swelling, improve circulation, decrease cancer-related fatigue, and lower stress hormones in order to decrease stress and anxiety.
Our massage therapist can perform various helpful techniques such as Swedish massage, Aromatherapy massage, Classical massage, Myofascial massage, Deep tissue massage (not used during active cancer treatment), and is also a Reiki Master.

The therapies that will be appropriate for you will be determined by your care team in collaboration with your Physician.
