‼️ NEW 2025 systematic review has confirmed what we’ve been shouting from the rooftops for over a decade‼️

… building muscular strength and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) can literally save lives 👏🏼

While past studies have pointed to the benefits of strength and cardio for those with cancer, this new meta-analysis brings all the evidence together - and the numbers speak volumes:

💪🏼 Higher muscle strength was linked to 31-46% lower risk of mortality
⬆️ Each unit increase in muscle strength CUT mortality risk by ~11%
❤️ Better CRF reduced cancer-specific mortality by ~18% per unit increase

It’s not just about exercise - it’s about survival, strength and thriving beyond cancer

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

New research confirms it: exercise saves lives.
A 17-year international study found a 37% lower risk of death in colon cancer patients who followed a specific & structured exercise program, from qualified specialists.

Our CanConquer program follows this research embedding exercise as a vital part of cancer care from diagnosis to recovery.

Managing head and neck lymphoedema? We can help!

Early intervention is KEY to preventing progression and improving outcomes 🔑👏🏼

Sequential Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (SIPC)… but we’ll stick with “the pump” 🤓 is just one of the many treatment modalities we utilise for managing lymphoedema!

The pump is comfy and easy to use, working by gradually inflating at the most distal part of the limb and progressing towards the torso to force excess lymph fluid in the same direction 🔄

We highly recommend these pumps and use them in combination with other treatments to reduce swelling and encourage lymphatic flow! 👏🏼👏🏼
