Rehabilitation for women following breast surgery

After breast surgery, rehabilitation is an integral part of the treatment process. At Bibione Thermae, it takes the form of a personalized program that supports women following a mastectomy or quadrantectomy with clinical expertise and deep consideration for their individual experience, respecting each woman's pace.
Manual therapies, therapeutic lymphatic drainage, and elastic compression bandaging complement gym exercises and hydrokinesitherapy in thermal water, where the body regains movement with greater ease. The program helps restore shoulder and arm mobility, manage postoperative pain, and reduce the risk of lymphedema and scar adhesions.

Motor functional rehabilitation

Regaining shoulder and arm mobility is one of the main goals of rehabilitation after a mastectomy or quadrantectomy. Through progressive exercises in the gym and specific manual techniques, the physical therapist addresses joint limitations, muscle stiffness, and scar adhesions that may develop after surgery. A carefully tailored approach focused on pain management and the recovery of daily activities, respecting each woman's healing timeline and individual condition.

Hydrokinesitherapy in thermal water

Recovery also continues in the rehabilitation pools, where the 34–35°C thermal water provides favorable conditions for movement. Buoyancy reduces the load on the joints and the warmth promotes muscle relaxation, allowing exercises to be performed with greater freedom and gradually. A distinctive feature of Bibione Thermae, which combines the benefits of thermal water with the expertise of physiotherapists, complementing the work done in the gym.

Therapeutic lymphatic drainage and elastic compression bandaging

Breast surgery, especially when involving the axillary lymph nodes, can alter lymphatic circulation and promote swelling and lymphedema. Rehabilitation provides specific treatments, such as manual lymphatic drainage, performed with gentle manual techniques to promote fluid drainage. When indicated, elastic compression bandaging helps control edema. Personalized care supports functional recovery, while also focusing on overall well-being and quality of life.
