Exercise is Medicine for Cancer - Not Advice, Not Lifestyle…

The Clinical Oncology Society of Australia (COSA) calls for exercise to be embedded as part of standard practice in cancer care and to be viewed as an adjunct therapy that helps counteract the adverse effects of cancer and its treatment.

Exercise can help minimise the effects of cancer treatment-related side effects, including cancer-related fatigue and the risk of long-term heart problems. Exercise can also minimise the loss of bone strength, reduce the risk of developing lymphoedema, improve anaemia and enhance quality of life.

Well prescribed Exercise as Medicine is valuable throughout all stages of breast cancer to manage anxiety and stress and implement positive targets and goals throughout the treatment plan.

At Chronic Care Australia, we have established an exercise medicine program to improve the mental and physical health and overall whole person health care of those living with breast cancer.
