Exercise Oncology
Exercise oncology is a specialised field within oncology that focuses on the role of exercise in cancer prevention, treatment, and survivorship. Research shows that appropriately prescribed, evidence-based exercise can improve physical function, reduce treatment-related side effects, enhance quality of life, and support long-term health and recovery throughout the cancer journey. By integrating exercise into cancer care, exercise oncology supports patients with safe, individualised exercise programs that promote better health, well-being, and long-term outcomes.
