Breast Cancer Rehabilitation targets the specific and unique needs of the breast cancer survivor before, during and after surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Our goal is to improve the quality of life for all survivors so that they may resume their usual level of activity after medical treatment has ended.

Evaluation and treatment is performed by experienced physical and occupational therapists who are also certified lymphedema therapists.

Anyone who has undergone lumpectomy, mastectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy, axillary lymph node dissection, chemotherapy, breast reconstruction and/or radiation therapy can benefit from the individualized Breast Cancer Rehabilitation offered by Martha Jefferson's Department of Physical and Occupational Therapy.
