Physiotherapy for people with cancer is about helping those with a cancer diagnosis achieve the goals that are most important to them and get back to living well. It is relevant and beneficial for all types of cancer in all stages of the cancer journey. For example, huge benefits can be gained from pre-habilitation before treatment and surgery.

Evidence shows that exercise can reduce cancer related death by almost 50% and reduces risk of cancer recurrence by up to 35%. These statistics are very exciting and our cancer physiotherapy service certainly includes exercise, but also involves much more.

 

Our trained and Certified PINC&STEEL Cancer Rehabilitation physiotherapists can support you with:
• Education and advice

• Hands on therapy
