You'll hear how physical therapy helped Cheri recover from life-limiting pain, chemo brain, lymphedema, and post-surgical complications—and how it gave her the strength to return to the outdoors and active life she loves. 🎧 We dive into: Why physical therapy should be part of your care plan The role of adhesions and scar tissue in post-treatment symptoms What the glymphatic system has to do with chemo brain Compression tips for exercise, flying, and hot weather How to advocate for physical therapy referrals during treatment 🔗 Want more support?
