Breast Cancer Rehab & Wellness Program
Rebuilding strength and wellness after breast cancer, one step at a time.
Breast cancer rehab is often overlooked but plays a vital role in helping you regain strength as you heal. At WakeMed, our breast cancer rehab & wellness program starts when your cancer is identified, prior to surgery, to help you safely work toward recovery and lifelong wellness.
Our highly specialized team of therapists share your goal of achieving the best possible outcomes. We work collaboratively with your cancer care team to personalize a therapy plan that will help you to achieve your goals and get you back to doing the things you love. Your plan will be tailored to your needs and may include prehab, post-surgical treatment, follow-up and a surveillance program for early detection and treatment of lymphedema, should it arise. At WakeMed, our goal is to help:
- Ease your discomfort
- Restore your range of motion
- Improve your physical strength
- Encourage healthy nutrition choices
- Minimize and or manage your risk of lymphedema
- Reclaim your pre-cancer independence
