Rehab & SelfCare Tools after Breast Cancer Surgery
Hi, I’m Erica. I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer at 43. I had a double mastectomy, radiation & reconstruction (tissue expanders to implants). It's been quite the ride!
As an athlete and a chiropractor, I wanted more guidance with rehab and recovery. Working out throughout cancer treatment has been a huge part of my recovery both physically and mentally. It's also been helpful in this new phase of survivorship. I've been navigating the limits of what I can do physically, especially with implants placed under the chest muscle.
I’m making videos that I wished I would've had as guidance. The videos cover what to expect with: ✔ surgery, radiation & breast reconstruction ✔ rehab and selfcare tools to address side effects of treatment (cording, radiation fibrosis, lymphedema, chronic neck & shoulder pain). I had all of these side effects and more!
