Lymphatic Care / Breast Cancer Rehabilitation
Support through every stage of your breast cancer journey.
Whether you’re preparing for surgery, in active treatment, or focused on life afterward, you don’t have to navigate recovery alone. Care is gentle, expert, and entirely one-on-one — and you can begin at any point.
Care before, during, and after treatment
You can start at any stage — including before surgery. Drawing on experience launching a hospital breast cancer pre-habilitation program, Dr. Baek adapts care to exactly where you are, from prehab through survivorship.
How we help at each stage
Prehab — before treatment
Baseline measurements, strength and mobility, movement-restriction guidance, lymphedema risk reduction, and a recovery plan.
During treatment
Cancer-related fatigue, neuropathy, mobility, balance, deconditioning, and safe exercise.
Post-surgical & reconstruction
Recovery after lumpectomy, mastectomy, lymph node surgery, and reconstruction — shoulder mobility, scar-tissue management, capsular contracture support, and cording.
Survivorship
Strength, fatigue, confidence, and a return to the activities you love.
Lymphedema prevention & management
One of the most common worries after lymph node surgery or radiation is lymphedema. As a Certified Lymphedema Therapist, Dr. Baek focuses on risk reduction, early detection, and prompt management if swelling begins.
Specialized & adjunct care
- Myofascial release and scar-tissue management
- Axillary cording (web syndrome) treatment
- Shoulder mobility restoration
- Low-level laser therapy where appropriate
- Graded return to exercise
Virtual support
On low-energy days or when travel is hard, virtual visits keep you supported and on track — where appropriate for your needs.
