Oncology Rehabilitation for Austin Seniors with Cancer
Cancer: Rehab - What Austin Seniors Can Do To Boost Health After Cancer Treatment
Chiropractic adjustments can help rehabilitation for those Austin seniors struggling with cancer and the physical pains that accompany it, to the muscles, joints, or bones. For some people, chiropractic care is used as an alternative to medicine or surgery. Another use is for nausea, headaches, and neuropathy. Auriculotherapy is another form of treatment that helps with ache, tiredness, and nausea. With Auriculotherapy rehabilitation, doctors can tickle the auricle of the ear externally to help with symptoms, rather than going in with a more aggressive treatment or therapy.
ASURE or Advanced Surgical Recovery Program, is key for cancer patients in their rehabilitation. Within this program - which is readily available within 24 hours after surgery - patients go back to the day to day routine they once were accustomed to. With ASURE, post surgical is more easily attainable, recovery is more speedy, and there are not as many difficulties in the recovery process.
As in all medical cases, having an experienced care team is also key, including the rehabilitation process. Having medical care professionals who incorporate the above therapies for you as a senior with cancer, will make treatment and recovery more comfortable and easy. As a result, your quality of life will improve, and side effects will not take as much of a toll on you so you can return more speedily to your daily routine and activities. While working with your experienced medical team, make sure that whatever treatment plan you come up with is personalized to your goals. Open communication is always key to obtaining the right treatment plan for you.
