Dealing with a cancer diagnosis can be daunting, especially when the journey involves surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and medications. These treatments, while necessary, often come with challenging side effects that can add to the already difficult experience of cancer.

But you don’t need to take on this battle on your own. The scientific evidence is so strong now for exercise oncology’s positive benefits unveiling exciting possibilities. This is not exercise therapy as we have known it! Precise intensity and type of exercise before treatments begin, during the treatment and afterwards can assist the effectiveness of the treatment, reduce the risk of cancer recurrence, and improve survival rates.

Exercise therapy also plays a crucial role in managing the side effects associated with cancer treatments, improving chemotherapy completion rates, and helping patients manage their cancer journey.

With a supportive team of health professionals including oncology physiotherapists, exercise physiologists and lymphoedema therapists, CanConquer’s precision exercise oncology program will help you prepare for treatment, staying the strongest you can throughout chemotherapy, and enhance your quality of life and function after the treatment journey ends.
