Head and Neck Cancer

Home / Head and Neck Cancer

Head and neck cancer is the term used to identify a number of malignancies, including cancer of the mouth, nose, throat, and salivary glands. Treatment will vary from individual to individual and may include surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, alone or in combination. 

Rehabilitation is a critical part of recovery, as most patients suffer from a number of conditions resulting from the disease process that ultimately impacts their day-to-day functioning.  At H-Heals, a team of rehabilitation experts works collaboratively to help patients cope with these medical and functional issues.

The H-Heals team brings together the expertise of Occupational therapist, Physio- therapist, Swallow therapist/deglutologist and counsellor— all who have extensive experience in cancer rehabilitation. The team works hand-in-hand with surgeons, otolaryngologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, and patients to develop a plan of care to help prevent side effects, maximizing quality of life, a return to daily activities post-surgery, pain reduction, and long-term condition management (including a comprehensive home exercise program).
