Oncology

Our MedHP team has extensive experience working with cancer patients to meet their individual exercise requirements. We understand the unique aspects of every patient’s cancer experience and strive to ensure their exercise programs are highly individualized and appropriate for their needs and treatment pathways.
The positive relationship between structured exercise and cancer treatment has been strongly documented and should be included as part of every treatment plan for patients suffering from all cancer states. Structured exercise includes benefits such as:
  • Reduced chemo fatigue
  • Increased strength
  • Improved quality of life during treatment
  • Maintenance of muscle mass and bone mineral density
  • Enhanced post-operative recovery
  • Reduced incidence of depression and other mental states
  • Improved survivorship rates vs. non exercise groups
