ONCOLOGY REHAB
Oncology Rehabilitation, the rehabilitation of the patient with cancer, is one of the
newest and most promising specialties in the field of physical therapy. Greater involvement
of the physical therapist is needed to assist the cancer patient in reducing the functional
deficits which result not only from the disease, but also from the treatment (i.e., surgery,
radiation, chemotherapy, etc). Some of these deficits include decreased range of motion,
decreased strength and endurance, neuropathic changes, postural changes, secondary edema and
pain. As the number of patients living with or having survived cancer continues to grow, so
will the need for specialists working to ensure these patients preserve their independence
and pre-cancer life style. Programs will be focused on improving each patient’s mobility,
strength, range of motion, mental attitude and pain reduction.

I’m a roofing contractor and am very active. My neck and back pain were at times unbearable. I would sometimes need help with some activities. I can now do just about anything. My energy level has increased and my overall attitude has improved. I’m very happy with the results and the people at the Rejuvenation Center and would recommend them to everyone. |
