Cancer Rehab
Cancer rehabilitation addresses changes you may experience from tumor burden, surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiation. Working with our partners at the VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center, we may see you before you begin your cancer treatments to give you prophylactic exercises/strategies (prehab), or after completing your cancer treatments to target any ongoing issues you may be experiencing.
Treatment
Our therapy focuses on improving function, strength, and quality of life for patients with different types of cancer.
We offer 1-on-1 appointments with a therapist specifically trained in cancer rehab evaluation and treatment who will address your individual needs and help you achieve your goals.
