Physical Therapy/Rehabilitation

physical therapyA carefully supervised and individually designed physical therapy program not only helps cancer patients overcome fatigue, but it also addresses issues of balance, mobility, range of motion, and strength – all areas that can be impaired during cancer treatment. The individualized program includes a focus on assistive devices and techniques that can aid cancer patients in their homes and improve their quality of life.

Huntington Hospital’s Physical Therapy Center is unique in that it is staffed exclusively by licensed physical therapists and physical therapy assistants, not aides. This means that every hands-on caregiver is a licensed professional. Its location within the hospital provides a measure of safety for patients who may have underlying medical complications. To further ensure safety and convenience, there is a gated private parking area reserved for Physical Therapy patients.
