Physiotherapy in Cancer Care

Overview

The physiotherapy program for cancer survivors at Ramaiah is based on current scientific evidence that recommends “exercise to be embedded as part of standard practice in cancer care from diagnosis to cure and as an adjunct therapy that helps counteract the adverse effects of cancer and its treatment”

Based on this philosophy, our service is integrated within the cancer care continuum and offers restorative, supportive and palliative care services that are tailored to suit individual requirements and include comprehensive treatment programs for

  • Prehabilitation
  • Pain Management
  • Improving functional exercise capacity during and after chemotherapy/radiotherapy
  • Management of adverse effects of cancer treatment such as Fatigue, Neuropathy, Sarcopenia, Osteoporosis
  • Lymphedema, Trismus, incontinence and other post-operative complications
