About this listen
In this episode, I’m joined by two extraordinary women: Cheri Henderson, a two-time breast cancer thriver, and Monica Kasari-Desulme, a physical therapist who specializes in cancer rehabilitation and lymphatic drainage.
You’ll hear how physical therapy helped Cheri recover from life-limiting pain, chemo brain, lymphedema, and post-surgical complications—and how it gave her the strength to return to the outdoors and active life she loves.
🎧 We dive into:
- Why physical therapy should be part of your care plan
- The role of adhesions and scar tissue in post-treatment symptoms
- What the glymphatic system has to do with chemo brain
- Compression tips for exercise, flying, and hot weather
- How to advocate for physical therapy referrals during treatment
