Top Cancer Treatment Side Effects We Address
Lymphedema – Radiation and lymph node removal can cause fluid buildup, leading to painful swelling. Our lymphatic drainage techniques and targeted exercises help reduce swelling and restore lymphatic flow. Scar Tissue & Restricted Movement – Surgery often results in scar tissue that limits movement. We use manual therapy and stretching techniques to break down scar tissue and restore flexibility. Fatigue & Weakness – Chemotherapy and radiation can drain your energy and weaken your muscles. Our personalized exercise programs are designed to safely rebuild strength and endurance, promoting overall wellness. Why Specialized Oncology Rehab Matters

This has been an incredible physical therapy experience! The team has helped me achieve my goals. They have listened and evaluated me with skill and great care. When I’m in a session they are focused on me and I feel valued, heard and comfortable. I highly recommend this team! I have been visiting the Carmel office. The office is always exceptionally clean and my kids are welcome to be in the sessions with me if I cannot arrange childcare. They work great even if there is a crying baby and that is a relief being a mom of 4
I started seeing Amy and Meredith a year and a half ago. I had seen other pelvic floor therapists with little to no results so I was super hesitant to try restore your core. But I have multiple friends who promised me I wouldn’t regret it. So I gave them a try and I am forever grateful I did. It’s honestly probably some of the best money I ever spent on myself. After four babies, you can imagine my core was shot. Not anymore! I still pop in from time to time. My most recent visit was due to pain in my hip (I think) from overdoing hip flexors. After only one visit my hip felt 💯! So yeah, highly highly highly recommend them 💜
