After a journey of cancer treatments, the road back to a new normal can feel difficult or at times impossible to attain. You are not alone. We at East Gwillimbury Physiotherapy are here to help you on a positive journey to recover your activity, function, and quality of life.
Some questions we can help you with regarding post-cancer physiotherapy and rehabilitation:
