Why physiotherapy matters after radiation and chemotherapy
Radiation can leave the neck and shoulders stiff and tight, and surgery on the lymph nodes can weaken the shoulder. Chemotherapy often leaves you tired and weaker than before.
A physiotherapist gives you exercises to restore movement in the neck and shoulders, ease swelling (lymphoedema), and rebuild strength and stamina, so you can return to everyday life.
