What is Cancer Physiotherapy?

Cancer physiotherapy is a specialised form of rehabilitation focused on improving the physical function, mobility, and overall well-being of individuals affected by cancer. Cancer treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, often come with side effects that impact mobility and cause pain or fatigue. Our cancer physiotherapy program for Ipswich-based clients offers a comprehensive suite of services, including:

Manual Physiotherapy: Hands-on techniques to improve mobility, alleviate pain and enhance the range of motion.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage: Treatment to help reduce swelling and improve lymphatic function for patients experiencing lymphoedema.
Physical and Functional Assessments: A full evaluation of impairments caused by cancer treatment to create personalised recovery plans.
Individualised Clinical Pilates: Exercise programs tailored to improve strength, flexibility and balance.
Supervised Gym Programs: Targeted exercises designed to help patients regain strength and independence.
Fatigue Management: Specialised techniques to reduce cancer-related fatigue and improve energy levels.
Resistance Training and Exercise Prescription: Personalised plans to improve muscle strength and overall fitness.

Our Approach to Cancer Physiotherapy

Our approach to cancer physiotherapy is all about personalised, comprehensive care. We begin with an in-depth assessment of your physical capabilities, considering any impairments or side effects from cancer treatments, such as fatigue, neuropathy or restricted mobility. This assessment forms the foundation for a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.

Pain Management is one of our main priorities. We use a combination of manual therapy, exercise and education to help manage and alleviate pain. Whether it is pain in the neck, back or other areas affected by treatment, our goal is to provide relief and restore comfort.

Beyond physical recovery, our physiotherapists offer education and support on managing the side effects of cancer, promoting a healthy lifestyle and encouraging a return to normal activities such as work, hobbies or exercise. By addressing the physical and emotional aspects of recovery, we aim to holistically support patients.
