The Swedish Cancer Institute, in collaboration with Swedish Outpatient Rehabilitation Services, offers a wide range of cancer rehabilitation services.

With your cancer rehabilitation physicians at the Swedish Cancer Institute, you will work with an expert team that includes physical, occupational, and speech-language therapists, nutritionists, and other supportive care providers.

Cancer rehabilitation integrates medical management of cancer treatment-related side effects and a variety of exercise therapies. Participation in Swedish Cancer Rehab is integral to your recovery and wellbeing. Your cancer rehabilitation plan will be created, implemented, and managed based on your individual symptoms, lifestyle, and goals.

  • Evaluation and medical management of cancer treatment-related side effects and pre-existing barriers to everyday activity.
  • An evaluation of your cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, flexibility, and activity goals.
  • Physical and occupational therapy that helps address specific physical challenges resulting from cancer and its treatment. Examples include lymphedema, loss of motion, and skin tightness after surgery or radiation treatment.
  • Education and counseling about the medical facts of your cancer, how they undermine well-being and how you can relate to them in a way that is healing and reduces the impact they have on your life.
  • Enhanced energy, decreased fatigue, improved activity capacity and a sense of well-being while living with cancer.
  • For patients who have completed treatment and do not have complex rehabilitation issues requiring management by a cancer rehabilitation physician, we offer a stand-alone, physical therapist-directed exercise program.

What Our Patients Say

What I gained by participation in the ACTIVE program was a wonderful complement to the other treatment. It also helped me move through ‘life after treatment’ with more positive energy.
My therapist taught me how to use my body again! Today I am able to walk for 25-30 minutes; I can walk in my garden and cook meals. It has been amazing beyond description.
I found the ACTIVE program to be the most significantly positive experience I had in all of my recovery.
