Oncology & Breast Cancer Rehab in Orlando, FL | VytalFlo Rehab Solutions
Oncology & breast cancer rehab at VytalFlo Rehab Solutions in Orlando is designed to help you move, breathe, and live more comfortably during and after cancer treatment. If you are recovering from surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or hormonal therapy and feel limited by pain, tightness, fatigue, or swelling, this page explains how specialized one‑on‑one care can support you.
What is oncology & breast cancer rehab?
Oncology rehabilitation is physical therapy tailored to people going through or recovering from cancer treatment. It addresses side effects such as weakness, stiffness, scar tightness, balance problems, neuropathy, and lymphedema so you can stay as independent and active as possible.
Breast cancer rehab focuses specifically on issues affecting the chest, shoulder, neck, and arm—especially after lumpectomy, mastectomy, reconstruction, lymph‑node removal, and radiation.

Posture changes, neck or back pain after treatment

What to expect at your first visit
Your initial oncology or breast cancer rehab session includes:
A careful review of your cancer history, surgeries, treatments, and current concerns
Assessment of posture, shoulder and neck mobility, arm strength, and functional tasks (reaching, lifting, dressing)
Screening for lymphedema and early signs of swelling when appropriate
Clear explanation of what is driving your symptoms and how therapy can help
Together, you and your therapist create a realistic plan that honors your energy and medical needs.
Treatment approach
Your plan is tailored to your stage of treatment and goals, but may include:
Gentle mobility work to restore safe shoulder, neck, and chest movement
Scar‑tissue and soft‑tissue techniques to reduce tightness and discomfort
Lymphedema risk‑reduction education and, when needed, complete decongestive strategies to manage swelling
Progressive strengthening and endurance training to combat fatigue
Balance and gait training to improve confidence with walking and daily activities
Education on posture, body mechanics, and pacing so you can manage your day without overdoing it
The goal is not only to feel better now, but to protect long‑term function and quality of life.
Who is Oncology & Breast Cancer Rehab For?
Consider scheduling an evaluation if you:
Are newly diagnosed and want to “pre‑hab” before surgery or radiation
Have completed treatment but still feel “stuck” with pain, tightness, or fatigue
Notice swelling, heaviness, or changes in how your clothes, jewelry, or bra fit
Want guidance on returning to work, exercise, or family responsibilities safely
Prefer personalized, one‑on‑one care with a therapist experienced in oncology and lymphedema
VytalFlo welcomes self‑referrals as well as referrals from oncologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, and primary care providers.
