Research has demonstrated physical activity to be a safe and effective therapy in the management of cancer both during and after treatment. Where bed rest was previously standard advice, exercise is now recognized as an adjunct therapy that helps to offset the detrimental effects of cancer and it's associated treatment. Some of the known benefits include improved energy levels, increased strength and fitness, enhanced mood and improved treatment outcomes. Moreover, the Clinical Oncology Society of Australia now recommends that patients be referred to an Accredited Exercise Physiologist and/or physiotherapist with specialist knowledge in cancer care.The MAC program offers a clinical exercise program for cancer patients and survivors based on current exercise oncology research. MAC is developed and run by our very own Accredited Exercise Physiologists, and aims to increase the quality and quantity of life in people with cancer by guiding participants through appropriate activities specifically tailored to improve treatment and health outcomes.
