Tailored Exercise For Cancer Treatment & Recovery
Specialised exercise programs designed specifically for individuals diagnosed with cancer
Exercise Programs for Cancer Patients
Our team of Accredited Exercise Physiologists are experienced in providing specialised exercise programs for individuals with a cancer diagnosis.
We develop individually-tailored exercise programs for people at all stages of their cancer treatment journey. These programs are designed to combat treatment side-effects and rebuild physical capacity.
We will work with you to develop an exercise program that is tailored to your specific circumstances, considering treatment schedules, treatment side effects, your individual capabilities and limitations, any other health issues as well as your specific goals.
Whether you’re already fit and active or have never exercised before, we will tailor our approach to your specific individual circumstances.
We provide supervised cancer exercise services at our clinic in Hastings on the Mornington Peninsula, but we also offer telehealth services to clients Australia-wide.

YOUR STEPS
Our team of Accredited Exercise Physiologists have experience working with many people with a cancer diagnosis and have seen first-hand the various challenges that cancer and its treatment can bring. When you work with us, we tailor our services to your unique circumstances, to ensure you are able to exercise in a way that is both safe and beneficial. To achieve this, we begin with the following three steps:
Step one
Let Us Get To Know You
During your initial consultation we will discuss your individual story, including your health & medical history as well as the goals you want to work towards.
Step TWO
Establish A Starting Point
Next we assess your current physical capabilities & limitations. This provides us with an accurate baseline from which we can use as your starting point.
Step THREE
Develop A Tailored Plan
additional support
Once you have your tailored exercise program, we can also provide any additional supervision or support that you need to succeed on your exercise journey. We offer:
ADVICE & GUIDANCE
At any stage of your cancer and treatment journey, Your Move Health can provide advice and support to help you progress or adjust your exercise program appropriately for changes in your current circumstances or capacity.
In addition, we have access to a network of other healthcare professionals that we can connect you to as needed.
SUPERVISED ONE-ON-ONE EXERCISE SESSIONS
Do you need some support and motivation to implement your exercise program?
We have experience, equipment and environment needed to get you moving safely and confidently, and we can help you with the accountability and motivation to ensure you achieve the results you are looking for.
We are able to progress or adapt your exercise program as needed on a session-by-session basis so that you get the best possible results for your effort.
SUPERVISED SMALL GROUP EXERCISE SESSIONS
Looking for the most cost-effective support option?
Our supervised small group exercise sessions offer you the opportunity to connect, be supported and keep motivated as you implement your exercise program alongside a small community of others that are on their own health & exercise journey.
Each group member has their own individually-tailored exercise program, but can complete it in the company of others, supervised and supported by one of our Accredited Exercise Physiologists.
ONLINE VIDEO CONSULTATIONS (TELEHEALTH)
For at-risk individuals with compromised immune systems, for those who cannot access our Hastings clinic location, or for those who would prefer the comfort of their own home, we offer online video consultations via Zoom.
