    Breast cancer is a global concern, being the second leading cause of death worldwide. In Peru, the incidence is significant, and treatment can cause adverse effects that impact the quality of life and functionality of patients. The main objective was to determine the effectiveness of a manual therapy program on functional capacity and quality of life in post-mastectomy oncological patients after oncological treatment. The study is applied, quantitative, and quasi-experimental with pre and post-test design. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) will be used to determine pain levels, the DASH questionnaire to assess functional capacity in the upper limb, and the EORTC scale to identify quality of life levels. A survey will be used as an evaluation technique, and the instruments have been validated by expert judgment. The research will be carried out at the oncology rehabilitation unit in a hospital in Lima. The population will consist of 108 patients who will undergo the manual therapy program.
