Our approach
Within the UAE the latest statics show an increase of 4500 new diagnosis of cancer each year.
With each new diagnosis comes many complications within the body.
Fatigue, Neuropathy, decreased strength and function, post-surgical complications and lymphedema
Exercising during and post cancer treatment is extremely important.
Research has shown that exercising 30-40 minutes a day 5 days a week can help reduce stress, anxiety, build strength, maintain cardiovascular health and increase energy levels. The stronger the body the better the person is able to fight against cancer.
Fatigue is a huge barrier to a person’s function and confidence during and post treatment.
Research also shows that regular activity exercising daily may prevent types of cancer in the first instance such as obesity related cancer.
