Accredited Exercise Physiology | North & West Melbourne

Safe, individualised exercise to support you through Cancer treatment and recovery.

Supervised by University-qualified Exercise Physiologists in a welcoming, private space.

Exercise is Medicine, come as you are.

A cancer diagnosis brings a flood of appointments, uncertainty, and physical fatigue. While you can't control every aspect of your treatment, targeted exercise is one powerful tool you can control.

We find your "Goldilocks Zone"—the exact type, dose, and intensity of movement that builds resilience and eases side effects without pushing you into exhaustion.

Exercise Oncology built to enhance your treatment and wellbeing

Manage Cancer-Related Fatigue

Counteract treatment tiredness and rebuild day-to-day energy.

Rest alone cannot resolve cancer-related fatigue; targeted exercise breaks the fatigue cycle by reducing systemic inflammation, restoring cellular energy, and preventing the muscle deconditioning caused by treatment.

Protect Muscle & Bone Health

Counter muscle wasting and osteoporosis caused by chemotherapy or hormone therapies.

Recover from range of movement and strength altered from surgery and recovery periods, or, prepare for an upcoming surgery.

Ease Treatment Side Effects

Reduce nausea, peripheral neuropathy discomfort, joint stiffness, and surgical recovery time

Improve Treatment Tolerance

Evidence shows maintaining cardiovascular fitness helps your body tolerate systemic treatments better.

Support Mental Wellbeing

Lower anxiety, ease stress, and sleep better in an empowering, non-hospital setting. Enjoy a post-exercise mood uplift.

Prevent Secondary Health Risks

Guard heart health, blood pressure, and long-term metabolic health post-treatment.
