Our team of licensed physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech and language pathologists at Avanta Healthcare is committed to providing personalized care to enhance your strength, reduce stress, and support your overall well-being. Our holistic approach focuses on tailoring treatment plans to meet your unique needs, ensuring you regain independence and maintain the energy levels necessary for daily activities and continued treatment.

Oncology rehabilitation, offered by Avanta Healthcare, plays a pivotal role in alleviating a myriad of side effects experienced by cancer patients throughout their treatment journey. These encompass:
Emotional Support: Cancer diagnosis and treatment often trigger heightened anxiety and stress. Avanta Healthcare’s oncology rehabilitation integrates relaxation exercises, mindfulness practices, and counseling sessions to aid patients in navigating these emotional hurdles.
Intimacy Enhancement: Cancer and its therapies can impede intimacy and sexual function. Avanta Healthcare’s rehabilitation services include counseling and strategies aimed at fostering communication and intimacy within relationships.
Balance Improvement: Certain cancer treatments or physical impairments may compromise balance, increasing the risk of falls. Avanta Healthcare’s rehabilitation protocols feature balance training exercises, assistive devices, and gait training to enhance stability and minimize fall risks.
Lymphedema Management: Post-cancer surgeries or radiation therapy can lead to lymphedema, characterized by swelling in limbs or other body parts due to compromised lymphatic systems. Avanta Healthcare employs manual lymphatic drainage, compression therapy, and tailored exercises to manage and alleviate lymphedema symptoms.
Nutritional Support: Cancer and its treatments often result in malnutrition and weight loss. Avanta Healthcare’s oncology rehabilitation addresses nutritional needs through dietary counseling, personalized meal plans, and ongoing support to ensure patients receive adequate nourishment.
Cognitive Enhancement: Some cancer treatments may induce cognitive impairments and memory challenges. Avanta Healthcare offers cognitive exercises, memory aids, and strategies to enhance cognitive function and tackle these issues.
Mucositis and Oral Care: Chemotherapy and radiation frequently cause painful mucositis and mouth sores. Avanta Healthcare’s rehabilitation emphasizes oral care, pain management techniques, and supportive therapies to alleviate discomfort and promote oral healing.
Neuropathy Management: Nerve damage from cancer treatments can lead to numbness or tingling sensations. Avanta Healthcare’s rehabilitation incorporates sensory re-education techniques, therapeutic exercises, and medications to manage and improve sensation.
Pain Relief: Cancer-related pain can significantly impact patients’ quality of life. Avanta Healthcare offers a range of pain management strategies, including physical therapy, medication management, and alternative therapies like acupuncture or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS).
Weight Management: Unintentional weight loss is a common side effect of cancer and its treatments. Avanta Healthcare’s rehabilitation addresses weight concerns through personalized nutritional support, dietary guidance, and tailored exercise programs.
Body Image Support: Cancer treatments may affect body image and self-esteem. Avanta Healthcare provides counseling, body awareness exercises, and support groups to help patients cope with physical changes and foster a positive body image.
Digestive Health: Cancer therapies can lead to digestive issues such as nausea, vomiting, and bowel irregularities. Avanta Healthcare offers dietary adjustments, medication management, and symptom control strategies to improve digestive well-being.
Dry Mouth Relief: Dry mouth, or xerostomia, is a common issue resulting from cancer treatments. Avanta Healthcare focuses on oral hygiene, saliva stimulation techniques, and medications to alleviate dry mouth symptoms and enhance oral comfort.
Swallowing Improvement: Swallowing difficulties, or dysphagia, may arise due to cancer treatments. Avanta Healthcare provides swallowing exercises, modified diets, and assistive devices to enhance swallowing function and ensure safe eating.
Fatigue Management: Cancer-related fatigue can be debilitating. Avanta Healthcare’s oncology rehabilitation incorporates energy conservation techniques, tailored exercise programs, and lifestyle adjustments to manage fatigue and enhance energy levels.
Mobility Restoration: Surgery, treatments, or physical limitations may impair mobility. Avanta Healthcare utilizes physical therapy, mobility aids, and assistive devices to restore mobility and independence.
Insomnia Treatment: Cancer and its treatments often disrupt sleep patterns. Avanta Healthcare addresses insomnia through sleep hygiene education, relaxation techniques, and behavioral interventions to promote restful nights and improve sleep quality.
