Helping kids stay strong, active, and independent throughout their cancer journey
Physical and occupational therapy play an important role in helping children with cancer stay strong and regain independence during and after treatment. Physical therapy focuses on building strength, balance, and mobility, while occupational therapy helps patients return to everyday activities such as self-care, school, and play. Together, these services support recovery, improve quality of life, and help children and young adults get back to doing the things they love.
