Exercise is Medicine for Cancer
PHYSIOFit provides personalized and supervised exercise programmes that foster positive lifestyle changes, including improvements in diet, weight management, stress reduction, and smoking cessation. By integrating exercise into cancer care, we aim to enhance recovery and reduce the risk of post-treatment complications.
- PHYSIOFit has coordinated care pathways with oncologists, surgeons, physiotherapists and various foundations.
- ONCOFit is an evidence-based practice delivering personalized exercise prescriptions to individuals with cancer across all stages of treatment—before, during, and after.
