Pain, limitations, and discomfort are common -
That does not make them normal.
Many people who are affected by cancer and its treatment get told that chronic discomfort and pain are now their “new normal.” This could not be further from the truth. You don’t have to assume that living with pain is your only option.
With the right education and tools, you can minimize your symptoms and maximize your life. Empowering with education is the reason why Cancer Rehab PT exists. And I’m so glad you’re here.

Welcome to Cancer Rehab PT
Hi, I’m Kelly Sturm
Doctor of Physical Therapy (PT, DPT), Board-Certified Oncology Specialist, CLT-LANA
I believe that you can reclaim control of your life with the right resources. And I’m here to help you do it.
After meeting with so many patients who lived in pain for years and simply assumed that it was normal, I started creating content and sharing my knowledge online to help those living with and beyond cancer and lymphedema learn how to manage and improve their symptoms.
My goal is to make education available to as many people as possible, so more people would have the resources to realize that chronic pain and discomfort are common, not normal, and feel empowered to start making small changes that lead to big results.
Welcome to Cancer Rehab PT. I’m here to support you every step of the way.
