Pre-hab before breast reconstruction may ease shoulder pain
NCT ID NCT07418060
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether doing physiotherapy and using a mechanical stimulation device before breast reconstruction surgery can reduce shoulder pain and improve movement afterward. About 72 women scheduled for a specific type of breast reconstruction (using a back muscle flap) will take part. Half will get the pre-surgery program, and half will receive standard care. The goal is to see if preparing the tissues beforehand leads to better recovery.
