about Breast Care

Supporting Your Body Before and After Breast Surgery

At Apto Physical Therapy, we specialize in comprehensive breast surgery recovery and rehabilitation for women following breast augmentation, reduction, reconstruction, explant, or implant revision. Our therapists combine advanced, evidence-based techniques — including manual therapy, dry needling, focused shock wave therapy, and lymphatic drainage — to restore comfort, mobility, and tissue health after surgery. Gentle hands-on work and dry needling help release tight chest wall and shoulder muscles, improve posture, and remodel scar tissue, while focused shock wave therapy supports collagen regeneration and may help reduce fibrosis or early capsular contracture. Lymphatic drainage techniques aid in decreasing post-operative swelling, inflammation, and discomfort, promoting smoother and faster healing.

Each recovery plan is personalized to your surgical history, stage of healing, and goals — whether that’s improving range of motion, reducing pain, or maintaining implant and capsule health. At Apto, we help you move with confidence, restore connection to your body, and support lasting results through integrative post-breast augmentation and breast reconstruction physical therapy.
