BREAST CANCER SPECIALIST · HILLSBOROUGH, NC + NATIONWIDE
Breast Cancer Physical Therapy & Breast Cancer Coaching
Two ways I help women after breast cancer. Both start with being truly understood.
Whether your body needs hands-on medical care or your whole life needs a new roadmap — you are in the right place.
Which of these sounds like you right now?
Physical therapy · Hillsborough, NC
"My body is in pain. I need it to move again."
Hands-on, medically necessary PT for women dealing with the physical aftermath of surgery, radiation, or treatment.
This is you if…
Cording or tightness in armpit/chest
Limited shoulder or arm movement
Chronic neck, back, or rib pain
Scar tissue restrictions
Menopause-related orthopedic issues
Referral from your oncologist or surgeon
Lymphedema management
What makes this medical: These are clinically diagnosed, insurance-eligible physical impairments. Treatment involves hands-on myofascial release, range of motion work, and therapeutic exercise — in person, in Hillsborough, NC.
Recovery coaching · Nationwide
"My body is okay. But my life feels derailed."
Whole-life coaching for women who finished treatment but still feel shaken — unsure how to eat, move, manage fear.
This is you if…
Lost after treatment ended
Anxious about recurrence
Overwhelmed by nutrition advice
Afraid to exercise or unsure where to start
Cancer changed who you are
Managing cancer instead of living
What makes this coaching: This is not medical treatment — it’s a personalized program covering nutrition, movement, stress management, and recurrence risk reduction. Available virtually to women anywhere in the country.
Not sure which one is right for you?
Many women need both — physical healing and life rebuilding don't happen in a vacuum.
