Breast Cancer & Exercise 💗

In light of today's Pink Ribbon Breakfast, we wanted to share some of the powerful benefits of exercise for those diagnosed with breast cancer.

Every year, more than 17,500 Australians are diagnosed with breast cancer — and encouragingly, 90% are disease-free five years after diagnosis.
Exercise plays an important role in both treatment and recovery, offering a wide range of physical and mental health benefits:

Lowers the risk of developing breast cancer
Reduces fatigue, anxiety and depression
Lessens treatment-related side effects (e.g. pain, sleep disturbances, cognitive changes)
Shortens hospital stays
Improves strength, muscle mass and bone health
Reduces risk of lymphedema
Supports better sleep, mood, body image and self-esteem
Helps maintain function during and after treatment
Boosts immune function and overall wellbeing
And here’s the best part — research shows that meeting physical activity guidelines after a breast cancer diagnosis is linked to:

💗 Lower risk of recurrence
💗 Reduced risk of other chronic diseases
💗 Better overall survival and quality of life

So let’s move, stretch, and stay strong — together 💕

☀️ Ready for Summer Sport? Let’s Talk Prehab! 🏃‍♂️

With 8 in 10 Australians aged 15 and over participating in sport or physical activity, the risk of injury without proper preparation is significant.

This is where Prehabilitation — or prehab — comes in - a proactive, evidence-based approach designed to optimise performance, minimise injury risk, and reduce recovery time through tailored, evidence-based exercise programs.

As Summer sport season approaches, now is the perfect time to start your prehab journey to ensure you’re performing at your best and maximising your chance of staying injury-free.

Looking for some guidance? Speak to one of our friendly staff members today to arrange an initial consultation with one of our Exercise Physiologists or Physiotherapists!
