Cancer Rehabilitation

Cancer Rehabilitation Physiotherapy In Bath


There is a huge body of growing evidence to support the need for physiotherapy at every stage of a person’s cancer diagnosis, but unfortunately there are still very few specialised services available. At Physioimpulse we believe that patients can still have active lifestyles but need the right tailored support and programme to do so.
 
What is Cancer Rehab?
 
Historically, patients going through their treatment were advised to rest and to avoid or do very minimal exercise. However, there is now a considerable amount of evidence to support patients to safely exercise before, during and after their treatment. Exercise is now being viewed by many as the fourth line of cancer treatment (http://theconversation.com/every-cancer-patient-should-be-prescribed-exercise-medicine-95440).
 
Cancer Rehab helps to manage and reduce many of the side effects of treatment, regardless of the cancer type and stage. It is effective whether the cancer is curative or palliative.
 
Cancer Rehab is used to treat the following side effects:

  • Cancer-related fatigue
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Reduced activity/exercise levels due to long periods of treatment
  • Muscle weakness/deconditioning  either due to the treatment itself or because of inactivity
  • Joint stiffness
  • Pain
  • Scar tissue following surgery
  • Cording (cord-like structures when lymph nodes have been removed)
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Reduced bone density/osteoporosis
 
Cancer Rehab can also be used before surgery or intensive treatment periods to prepare a person and has been shown to improve treatment outcomes. This is known as prehabilitation.

There are many benefits to Cancer Rehab including:

  • Increased strength and fitness levels
  • Increased confidence and knowledge about what exercise and activities and safe and beneficial
  • Improvements in mood and anxiety levels
  • Positive effects on sleep and stress levels
  • Reduced fatigue
  • Better controlled peripheral neuropathy
  • Reduced pain levels
  • There is also emerging evidence that exercise can improve the effectiveness of cancer treatment and even reduce the risk of disease progression
