Welcome to Onco Physical Therapy and Wellness

Hi! I’m Dominique
 

A physical therapist and the founder of Onco Physical Therapy and Wellness. I help breast cancer survivors rebuild strength, confidence, and peace of mind so they can return to the activities they love without fear of lymphedema or re-injury.

After years of working with individuals navigating recovery after breast cancer treatment, I’ve seen how much survivors are asked to figure out on their own. You’re handed a pamphlet, told to “ease back in,” and left to fill in the gaps yourself. I know how frustrating and even scary that can feel when all you want is to feel like you again.

That’s why I created Onco Physical Therapy and Wellness. To give women a place to rebuild, reconnect, and move forward confidently. Through one-on-one physical therapy and my StrongHER Program, you’ll learn how to safely return to strength training, manage or prevent lymphedema, and care for your body with clarity.

This isn’t about pushing through pain or getting back to a “before” version of yourself. It’s about helping you feel strong, capable, and comfortable in your skin so you can lift, play, laugh, and live with confidence again.

If you’re ready to feel strong and supported through every step of survivorship, I’d be honored to help.

Kind Words

“Dominique is such a sweet soul. She really took the time to listen to my concerns whether they were related to my health condition or not. She helped me figure out how to care for myself again. Living with lymphedema feels so overwhelming most of the time. She really broke it down so it felt more manageable. I always look forward to our appointments.”
