Oncology Physiotherapy

Supporting individuals undergoing or recovering from cancer treatment.

Cancer treatment can be physically exhausting and leave lasting effects on your strength, mobility, and quality of life. Our oncology physiotherapy programme helps you manage fatigue, regain strength, maintain mobility, and stay as active as possible — at every stage of your treatment and recovery, adapted entirely to where you are today.

Care Adapted to Your Treatment Stage

We work closely with your oncology team and adapt your programme at every stage — during active treatment, after surgery, and into survivorship. Sessions are gentle, paced carefully around your energy levels, and focused on maintaining function and independence. We also provide lymphedema management when indicated.

  • Cancer-related fatigue
  • Post-surgical weakness and deconditioning
  • Lymphedema management
  • Reduced mobility following treatment
  • Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy
  • Bone health and fracture risk management

We plan around your treatment schedule and energy levels. If you are having a difficult week, we adjust or reschedule without any pressure. Flexibility is built into how we work with oncology patients.
