Navigate Cancer Pain with Expert Physio Support
Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in managing various types of cancer-related pain, offering patients both relief and improved quality of life. Here are some specific areas where physiotherapy can help:
- Muscle and Joint Pain: Cancer and its treatments can lead to muscle and joint pain.
- Post-Surgical Pain: Surgery is often a part of cancer treatment, which can result in post-operative pain.
- Neuropathic Pain: Some cancer patients experience neuropathic pain, which is caused by nerve damage.
- Lymphedema: Cancer treatments can sometimes lead to lymphedema, a condition characterised by swelling due to a buildup of lymph fluid.
- Fatigue: Cancer-related fatigue is a common issue that can significantly impact a patient's quality of life.
- Scar Tissue Management: Surgery and radiation therapy can result in scar tissue formation, which can be painful and restrict movement.
- Bone Pain: Cancer that has spread to the bones (metastatic bone disease) can cause significant pain.
Here are some ways we help cancer patients:
- Manual therapy, exercises, and modalities like heat or cold therapy, to reduce pain and improve function.
- Tailored exercise programs to help patients regain strength, flexibility, and mobility.
- Manage lymphedema through manual lymphatic drainage, compression therapy, and exercise, reducing swelling and improving function.
- Develop personalised exercise programs to combat cancer-related fatigue, improving energy levels and quality of life.
- Help patients perform daily activities with greater ease and confidence which aims to improve overall function and independence.

Successful Treatments
EXCELLENT Based on 100 reviews Posted on Paul PillarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am reaching out to share my enthusiastic recommendation for Ravnita. After struggling with lower back pain for many years, I finally found relief thanks to Ravnita's exceptional care. Her patience and listening skills are truly second to none. I deeply appreciate the dedication and attention she has shown me throughout my treatment. If you're dealing with similar issues or know someone who could benefit from her expertise, I highly recommend giving Ravnita a try. She has worked wonders for me, and I am confident she can do the same for others.Posted on Margarida MendoncaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am 78 years old and have been quite healthy and fit all my life doing several types of exercices/ activities / sports. In the last 10 years I have done 2 surgeries for knee replacements. Since then I have had difficulties trying to find the appropriate professionals that could understand some of my physical limitations. All the gymns and ac tivities that i tried i ended up giving up due long lasting pain in my legs and knees. As i started avoiding exercising i was loosing my balance and strenght and went through 2 unexpected falls.After that and searching for alternatives i found the Optimum Health and Performance group at Erina This was a game changer in my life. I started doing an assessement and consultation with some follow ups and afterwards i started with the program of strenght and conditioning for over 65+. After a couple of weeks my overall health started improving as well started seeing real results in my balance and strenght being able to return to my routine life and doing some types of activities which I.had lost the ability to do. I would like to thank to all my " coaches", all very competent and willing to understand and make me overcome my fears. Particularly i am grateful to Joshua Parnas for his expertise and enthusiasm in class encouraging us to proceed with confidence towards our better health Thanks to the team of OH and P for having such a professional group not forgetting your lovely secretary always willing to try to find a time and a day suitable for our meetings. Congratulations for the 5*****Posted on Joe TaboneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I originally visited optimum health because of knee pain about 8 years ago. My knee pain went away after 2 visits with Helen. I now have arthritis due to my age 79 yrs old. I see Helen who helps me manage my pain very well. Helen explained what was going on very clearly in my joints. After good massaging by Helen and I do simple exercises now and it helps me so much. Thank you Optimum Health &Performance Terrigal.Posted on Lynn FreelandTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex and Helen are amazing therapists. I'm so glad they were my first experience with Physios. I attended with bursitis in my shoulder, which i suffered with for several months. After a few visits, I couldn't believe the pain and my mobility were getting so much more manageable. I wish I had visited them sooner. I also learned a lot about my anatomy and it's Inner workings - they explain every step of the way about what they are doing and why. They are so welcoming and professional. as are all the staff at the Terrigal practice. Thank you for taking such good care of me.Posted on Mark BradleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having fractured three vertebrae 20 years ago and now having scoliosis, I needed a musculoskeletal physio to help alleviate my back pain and tension. Alex is wonderful. My range of movements steadily improved over the course of the year and my back no longer aches when it rains thanks to the various exercises and stretches that Alex has me doing. I could not recommend him highly enough.Posted on TimandTorz MetcalfeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Would definitely recommend!Posted on John MifsudTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After enjoying a life time of sports the injuries accumulate. Alex and the team at Optimum have done wonders to improve my quality of life. Regular visits has resolved the scar tissue from most of those injuries resulting in a remarkable difference to my range of movement, quality of sleep and clarity of mind. Best of all many aches and pains have disappeared. I highly recommend the team at Optimum Health and Performance.Posted on Graeme LoweTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Staff are highly respectful, helpful and professional.Posted on Jelly DropsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend seeing Alex, he's helped me so much. I had suffered chronic back pain for a year, before being recommended to Alex by my partner. After my first session, I went from getting 4-5 hours of sleep a night due to my back pain, to getting a full 8 hours. But since I've been seeing Alex at Optimum Health, my back has greatly improved. The staff are professional, and welcoming.Posted on Anne BaileyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
