Massage Therapy & Lymphatic Care for Those Affected by Breast Cancer
Improving Range of Motion After Breast Cancer Surgery
Breast cancer surgery, such as a mastectomy or lumpectomy, can lead to reduced range of motion in the affected arm and shoulder. This limitation often stems from scar tissue formation, muscle stiffness, and changes in tissue elasticity. Managing and improving range of motion is essential for enhancing daily activities and overall quality of life.
Do you have trouble with...
