The New York City rehabilitation practice formerly known as BreastHab has completed a formal rebrand, now operating as Thera Rehab Physical and Occupational Therapy. The transition marks a notable shift in the clinic's public identity while preserving its clinical focus on breast cancer rehabilitation, lymphedema care, and post-surgical recovery, according to a press release.
The updated name reflects a broader therapeutic scope and the practice's ongoing commitment to patients across New York City and the Tri-State Area, served from its Midtown Manhattan location at 115 West 30th Street. The decision to retire the BreastHab name was driven by a recognition that the previous brand, while descriptive, did not fully represent the range of conditions treated at the clinic. Lymphedema management, for example, extends beyond breast cancer contexts to include patients recovering from other oncological surgeries, cosmetic and reconstructive procedures, vascular insufficiency, and other fluid retention disorders.
“The rebrand allows us to more accurately represent the full range of care we provide - from breast cancer rehabilitation and lymphedema therapy to cosmetic surgery recovery and mastitis treatment - while keeping our Midtown Manhattan location as the anchor for patients across the region,” said Sabrina Rana Vaishnavi, MPT CLT, Co-Founder of Thera Rehab Physical and Occupational Therapy. “Every session remains one-to-one with a licensed therapist who brings specialized, hands-on expertise to each unique recovery journey.”
The transition does not involve any restructuring of services or ownership. Clients receiving care for post-mastectomy recovery, axillary web syndrome, post-implant mobility restrictions, scar tissue management, mastitis, and lymphedema management will continue working with the same clinical team. The Midtown Manhattan clinic draws patients from across New York City's five boroughs as well as from New Jersey and Connecticut, with its location steps from Penn Station making it accessible via multiple subway lines.
Thera Rehab provides physical and occupational therapy with a clinical concentration in breast cancer rehabilitation, lymphedema therapy, cosmetic and reconstructive surgery recovery, axillary web syndrome treatment, mastitis and clogged milk duct treatment, scar management, and lymphatic care. All sessions are conducted on a one-to-one basis, with each patient working directly and exclusively with their assigned therapist throughout the treatment session. The practice does not operate on a group or shared-session model.
The clinical team includes Certified Lymphedema Therapists (CLTs) and Certified Cosmetic Surgery Therapists (CCSTs) with advanced training in oncology rehabilitation and manual therapy. The clinic is open Monday through Friday, 7am to 7pm, and works with a range of insurance providers for covered conditions including lymphedema management. Patients who previously received care under the BreastHab name are being notified directly, and all medical records, treatment plans, and clinical relationships remain unchanged.
Thera Rehab is a proud sponsor of the 2025 Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk and a member of the National Lymphedema Network. More information is available at Thera Rehab's website.
