Breast Cancer Physiotherapy

Specialist, compassionate care
when you need comfort most

A breast cancer diagnosis and treatment are defining moments that demand enormous physical and emotional strength.

 

After procedures such as a mastectomy, breast-conserving surgery or axillary lymph node removal, it’s very common to experience pain, shoulder stiffness, postural changes and fear of developing lymphoedema (arm swelling).

At Vital Home Care, we offer an oncology physiotherapy service entirely focused on women’s health. Our team comes to your home to provide gentle, safe, one-to-one care, focused on restoring your mobility, easing discomfort and helping you reclaim your quality of life in the place where you feel most protected.

Testimonials

What our patients say about
their recovery

  • In an oncological situation, I was cared for by the physiotherapist.

    In the comfort of my home, I continued over the years to be treated by a highly skilled and compassionate professional.

    Very attentive, dedicated, and knowledgeable about the most effective treatment.

    Without a doubt the best I've found.

    I recommend her.

    Always grateful

  • Dear physiotherapist,

    I would like to express my deep gratitude for the excellent care I received during my treatment. It undoubtedly made all the difference to my recovery.

    Your manner, patience, empathy and professionalism were essential and truly admirable, during the most fragile phase of my life.

    Grateful to have known you, and thank you for everything!

  • I had breast cancer surgery and was advised to do physiotherapy for my recovery. I contacted physiotherapist RC. She was always very professional carrying out the exercises and techniques, explaining the goals of each procedure, checking symptoms and reviewing results, and her work was positively validated by the nursing team.
    Alongside her professionalism, she brings warmth, humanity and positivity, essential qualities alongside her knowledge and skill. For all of this, my heartfelt thanks; she was, without doubt, essential to my recovery.

Take the first step, we'll take care of the rest
