Cancer Rehabilitation Program in Green Bay
We are a STAR certified oncology clinic!
Cancer rehabilitation is an individualized program to aid people after diagnosis of any type of cancer, at any stage. Common medical treatments for cancer include surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. These treatments may be necessary to shrink or eliminate the tumor, but they may result in fatigue, weakness, lymphedema, poor range of motion, among other side effects. Cancer rehab will focus on 3 pillars of rehabilitation: cardiovascular strength, musculoskeletal strength, and flexibility. This program will help restore your energy, improve your comfort, and maximize your function!
