Introducing ReVital to the Hawthorne Community

Updated: Mar 21, 2023









ReVital Cancer Rehabilitation


Specialized therapy for relief and recovery from cancer and its treatment


ReVital Cancer Rehabilitation focuses on helping individuals with cancer, and those in recovery, live better lives.


ReVital's highly trained therapists lead a specialized rehabilitation program that helps manage the side effects of cancer and its treatment.


Up to 90 percent of those receiving cancer treatment have at least one side effect. The most common side effects include pain, fatigue, brain fog and difficulty moving.


Yet less than 10 percent of these people get help for their symptoms.


ReVital Cancer Rehabilitation is changing that statistic


The ReVital team know what coping with cancer looks like and feels like. They know from the success of their program that cancer rehabilitation helps restore the mind, body and overall well-being.


At ReVital, cancer rehabilitation focuses on all these things. Their program concentrates on three critical phases of the cancer journey:


· At diagnosis, before cancer surgery or treatment

· During cancer treatment

· Post-treatment and survivorship


They are committed to helping people stay active and independent at each stage of the cancer journey. They achieve this by developing treatment plans unique to each person to meet their needs and goals.


This approach - treating the whole person – helps speed recovery and promote quality of life.


“The ReVital program has done more than treat my symptoms – the team has given me a new appreciation for my body and my health, and they have shown me a path to wellness. I am healthier than when I received my diagnosis two years ago. I know I’m not limited by my cancer treatment or anything else! I am not just surviving – I am thriving!” – Ami C., ReVital Cancer Rehabilitation Patient
