Oncological Physiotherapy

Specialist physiotherapy during and after cancer

Cancer can have many physical and mental effects, both from the disease itself and from treatment. B&B Healthcare has qualified specialists in oncological physiotherapy who support people dealing with these effects.

Research shows oncological physiotherapy can be important for people during treatment and for those who have completed treatment. Moving enough is important to help reduce complaints such as fatigue, depression, loss of stamina and muscle weakness. An active lifestyle can also contribute to survival and reduce a number of risk factors for (recurrence of) cancer.
