Cancer treatment affects more than just one part of the body. After surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation, many Burnaby patients experience stiffness, weakness, swelling, fatigue, and changes in skin quality.
At Metrotown Active Health, we take an integrative approach — combining physiotherapy and gentle aesthetic skin treatments to support recovery safely and holistically.

The Physical Side of Recovery
Physiotherapy focuses on restoring:
Mobility and range of motion
Strength and endurance
Postural alignment
Scar tissue flexibility
Confidence in movement
This is especially important after surgeries or long periods of reduced activity.
The Skin Side of Recovery
Cancer treatments can leave skin feeling:
Dry or fragile
Tight or irritated
Dull or sensitive
Gentle treatments such as hydrating facials or GREEN PEEL® Fresh Up help support circulation, hydration, and skin comfort — without harsh chemicals.
Why Combining Care Matters
When physio and aesthetics work together, patients often experience:
Better overall comfort
Improved circulation
Reduced stress
Faster return to daily activities
Improved self-confidence
Everything is tailored, gentle, and patient-led.
Support Your Recovery in Burnaby
Healing is not just physical — it’s whole-person care.
