recovery<\/b><\/h2><p>Cancer and cancer treatment can affect the body in many different ways. Surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and periods of reduced activity may contribute to fatigue, weakness, stiffness, reduced mobility and loss of physical confidence.<\/p><p>Cancer rehabilitation focuses on helping you maintain or rebuild physical ability during and after treatment. The programme is adapted to your diagnosis, treatment, symptoms and current level of activity.<\/p><p>The aim is to help you remain as active and independent as possible while working within the guidance of your oncology and medical team.<\/p><h2><b>What is cancer rehabilitation?<\/b><\/h2><p>Cancer rehabilitation uses physiotherapy and appropriate exercise to address physical difficulties associated with cancer and its treatment.<\/p><p>Rehabilitation may take place:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Before treatment<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">During treatment<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">After surgery<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">During chemotherapy or radiotherapy<\/li><li

aria-level=\"1\">When living with ongoing or advanced cancer<\/li><\/ul><p>The approach will be different for every person.<\/p><p>Some people may mainly need help rebuilding strength after surgery, while others may be managing fatigue, reduced mobility or difficulty returning to normal exercise.<\/p><h2><b>When cancer rehabilitation may help<\/b><\/h2><p>An assessment may be useful if you are experiencing:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Reduced strength<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Cancer-related fatigue<\/li><li style=\"font-weight:

aria-level=\"1\">Ongoing physical limitations after treatment<\/li><\/ul><p>Rehabilitation can also help people who want guidance on maintaining physical activity while going through treatment.<\/p><h2><b>What happens during your first appointment?<\/b><\/h2><p>Your first appointment begins with a discussion about your cancer treatment, current health and the physical difficulties you are experiencing.<\/p><p>The physiotherapist may ask about:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Your diagnosis<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Current or previous cancer treatment<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Surgery<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Chemotherapy or radiotherapy<\/li><li style=\"font-weight:

aria-level=\"1\">Physical endurance<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Movements affected by surgery or treatment<\/li><\/ul><p>The assessment helps establish a safe and realistic starting point for rehabilitation.<\/p><h2><b>What rehabilitation may include<\/b><\/h2><p>Treatment depends on your current symptoms, treatment stage and physical ability.<\/p><h2><b>Strengthening exercises<\/b><\/h2><p>Cancer treatment and periods of reduced activity can lead to muscle weakness.<\/p><p>Exercises may focus on:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Legs and hips<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Arms and shoulders<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Trunk and core muscles<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">General whole-body strength<\/li><\/ul><p>The starting level can be adjusted according to your current energy and physical ability.<\/p><p>Strength can then be built gradually as treatment and recovery allow.<\/p><h2><b>Walking and cardiovascular activity<\/b><\/h2><p>Walking can be a practical way to maintain or rebuild fitness.<\/p><p>You may begin with short periods of activity before gradually increasing:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking duration<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Distance<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Pace<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Frequency<\/li><\/ul><p>Other cardiovascular activities may also be introduced where appropriate.<\/p><h2><b>Movement and mobility<\/b><\/h2><p>Surgery, radiotherapy or long periods of reduced movement can sometimes lead to stiffness.<\/p><p>Exercises may be used to maintain or improve movement in affected areas.<\/p><p>The programme will take account of any surgical restrictions and the tissues involved in treatment.<\/p><h2><b>Balance exercises<\/b><\/h2><p>Reduced strength, fatigue or some treatments can affect balance.<\/p><p>Rehabilitation may include:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Standing balance<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Stepping<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Turning<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking around obstacles<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Lower-limb strengthening<\/li><\/ul><p>The exercises can be adapted according to your falls risk and current ability.<\/p><h2><b>Home exercise programme<\/b><\/h2><p>You may receive a manageable programme to complete between appointments.<\/p><p>The amount of exercise can be adjusted according to treatment, fatigue and how your body responds.<\/p><h2><b>Cancer-related fatigue<\/b><\/h2><p>Fatigue associated with cancer can feel very different from ordinary tiredness.<\/p><p>It may affect both physical and mental energy and may not completely improve after sleeping or resting.<\/p><p>Fatigue can make it difficult to:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Exercise<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Work<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walk longer distances<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Complete household tasks<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Socialise<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Maintain a normal daily routine<\/li><\/ul><p>It can be tempting to respond by resting for longer periods.<\/p><p>However, too much inactivity can contribute to further loss of strength and fitness.<\/p><p>Rehabilitation aims to find a manageable balance between activity and recovery.<\/p><h2><b>Building activity gradually<\/b><\/h2><p>If your activity has reduced significantly during treatment, returning immediately to your previous routine may be too demanding.<\/p><p>Rehabilitation may begin with a level of movement you can manage consistently.<\/p><p>Progress might involve gradually increasing:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Exercise duration<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Number of repetitions<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Resistance<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Household activity<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Time spent standing<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">General daily movement<\/li><\/ul><p>The programme can be adjusted around treatment cycles and changes in energy.<\/p><h2><b>Exercise during cancer treatment<\/b><\/h2><p>Physical activity may still be possible during cancer treatment, although the appropriate amount can change from one person to another.<\/p><p>Some days may feel relatively normal, while others may involve much greater fatigue or treatment-related symptoms.<\/p><p>Your exercise programme may therefore include different levels of activity.<\/p><p>For example:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">A normal programme for better days<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">A shorter programme when energy is reduced<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Gentle movement during more difficult periods<\/li><\/ul><p>The aim is to remain appropriately active without feeling that every session needs to be completed at the same intensity.<\/p><h2><b>Rehabilitation after cancer surgery<\/b><\/h2><p>Surgery can temporarily affect strength, movement and general mobility.<\/p><p>The type of rehabilitation required depends on the operation.<\/p><p>Early rehabilitation may focus on:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Getting out of bed<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Breathing and movement<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Maintaining circulation<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Restoring basic mobility<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Becoming independent with everyday movement<\/li><\/ul><p>As healing progresses, treatment may become more focused on strength, joint movement and returning to normal activity.<\/p><p>All rehabilitation should follow the restrictions and guidance provided by the surgical team.<\/p><h2><b>Movement after breast cancer surgery<\/b><\/h2><p>Breast and chest surgery may temporarily affect shoulder and arm movement.<\/p><p>You may notice:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Shoulder stiffness<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Difficulty reaching overhead<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Tightness around the chest<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Reduced arm movement<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Weakness<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Difficulty dressing or completing household activities<\/li><\/ul><p>Rehabilitation may include gradual shoulder and arm exercises, posture and strengthening as healing progresses.<\/p><p>The programme should reflect the type of surgery and any ongoing treatment.<\/p><h2><b>Rehabilitation after abdominal or pelvic surgery<\/b><\/h2><p>Abdominal or pelvic surgery can temporarily affect mobility, trunk strength and confidence with activities such as lifting and bending.<\/p><p>Early rehabilitation may focus on:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Getting in and out of bed<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Standing from a chair<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">General mobility<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Gradually increasing activity<\/li><\/ul><p>As recovery progresses, exercises may include strengthening and controlled return to lifting, work or exercise where medically appropriate.<\/p><h2><b>Rehabilitation after bone or soft-tissue cancer treatment<\/b><\/h2><p>Treatment involving bones, joints or soft tissues can have a significant effect on movement and strength.<\/p><p>Depending on the area treated, rehabilitation may focus on:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Joint movement<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Muscle strength<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Balance<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Use of walking aids<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Upper-limb function<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Returning to normal activities<\/li><\/ul><p>Where surgery has affected bone or soft tissue, specific restrictions around weight-bearing or exercise may need to be followed.<\/p><h2><b>Weakness after hospital admission<\/b><\/h2><p>A hospital stay can result in a noticeable loss of physical strength, particularly when someone has spent longer periods in bed.<\/p><p>After discharge, you may find that:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking feels harder<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Stairs are more tiring<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Standing from a chair requires more effort<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">You need more frequent rest<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Normal household activities feel physically demanding<\/li><\/ul><p>Rehabilitation can begin with basic strength and mobility before gradually building towards your previous level of activity.<\/p><h2><b>Managing reduced physical fitness<\/b><\/h2><p>Cancer treatment can interrupt exercise for weeks or months.<\/p><p>Even if you were physically active before treatment, your previous exercise level may not initially feel manageable.<\/p><p>This does not mean you cannot return to it.<\/p><p>Your programme may progress from:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Gentle movement<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Short walks<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Basic strengthening<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Longer cardiovascular activity<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">More demanding strength work<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Normal recreational exercise<\/li><\/ul><p>Progress should reflect your current ability rather than where you were before treatment.<\/p><h2><b>Pacing your activities<\/b><\/h2><p>Some people experience a pattern of doing much more when they have energy and then needing a long recovery period afterwards.<\/p><p>Pacing can help make activity more consistent.<\/p><p>This might involve:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Breaking larger tasks into smaller sections<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Alternating physically demanding and easier activities<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Planning more demanding tasks for times when energy is usually better<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Taking short planned breaks<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Increasing activity gradually<\/li><\/ul><p>The aim is not to rest more and more. It is to use available energy in a way that allows you to remain active.<\/p><h2><b>Better and more difficult days<\/b><\/h2><p>Symptoms during cancer treatment can change from day to day.<\/p><p>It may be useful to have different versions of your exercise programme depending on how you feel.<\/p><p>On a more difficult day, rehabilitation might involve:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">A shorter walk<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Reduced resistance<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Fewer exercises<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Gentle mobility<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Additional recovery<\/li><\/ul><p>When energy improves, you can return towards your usual programme.<\/p><p>Having some flexibility can make activity easier to maintain over time.<\/p><h2><b>Balance and falls<\/b><\/h2><p>Weakness, fatigue, reduced activity or certain treatment effects can make some people feel less steady.<\/p><p>You may notice difficulty:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking outdoors<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Using stairs<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Turning<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking when tired<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Moving over uneven surfaces<\/li><\/ul><p>An assessment can identify whether balance, strength or another physical factor is contributing.<\/p><p>Treatment may include strengthening, balance exercises and walking practice.<\/p><p>A walking aid may also be considered where appropriate.<\/p><h2><b>Managing pain during rehabilitation<\/b><\/h2><p>Pain can affect how comfortable you feel moving or exercising.<\/p><p>The approach depends on the reason for the pain and the area affected.<\/p><p>Physiotherapy may involve modifying:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Exercise intensity<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Range of movement<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking distance<\/li><li

activity<\/li><\/ul><p>New, unexplained or significantly changing pain should be discussed with your oncology or medical team rather than automatically treated as a normal exercise response.<\/p><h2><b>Returning to everyday activities<\/b><\/h2><p>Cancer rehabilitation is not only about formal exercise.<\/p><p>The goal may simply be to regain enough physical ability for normal life.<\/p><p>This may include:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking around the home<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Shopping<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Cooking<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Using stairs<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Driving<\/li><li

style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Travelling to work<\/li><\/ul><p>Rehabilitation may help build physical capacity for these demands.<\/p><p>A gradual return or temporary changes to working hours or duties may also be useful depending on your role and recovery.<\/p><h2><b>Returning to exercise<\/b><\/h2><p>If you exercised before your diagnosis, you may want to return to activities such as:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Running<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"

style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Fewer exercises<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Longer recovery between sets<\/li><\/ul><p>As strength and energy improve, resistance and exercise volume can gradually increase.<\/p><p>The goal is not to immediately return to the weights used before treatment.<\/p><p>Consistency and gradual progression are more important during recovery.<\/p><h2><b>Maintaining independence<\/b><\/h2><p>For some people, the main goal of cancer rehabilitation is maintaining independence rather than returning to high-level exercise.<\/p><p>Treatment may focus on:<\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Walking safely<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Standing from a chair<\/li><li
