Cancer Rehabilitation

Fact: Research has shown that exercise can significantly decrease
the chance of recurrence among cancer patients!

Inner Strength Bayside has supported many brave women and men in their quest to conquer cancer. For many years, clinic director and Physiotherapist, Luci Minogue has taken a special interest in cancer rehabilitation, being the first Pinc Cancer Rehabilitation provider in Victoria. She delivers Oncology Rehabilitation Programs to women and men diagnosed with cancer, helping them regain their physical strength, improve their body confidence and incorporate exercise into their lifestyle.

Luci draws on her Pinc and Steel Cancer Rehabilitation training to offer a complementary blend of clinical pilates-style exercises, physiotherapy, massage, stretching and breathing techniques. Oncology Rehabilitation can help improve the quality of life for cancer survivors and aid in reducing the side effects of treatment.

Group Physio-led Exercise classes offer individualised exercise rehab for each person within the group. These oncology rehab classes accommodate all ages, fitness levels, and mobility. They offer a safe space to feel, share, and exercise within your limits and find solidarity with those who understand how it is.

Pinc & Steel

Pinc & Steel Cancer Rehabilitation accommodates all fitness levels and is suitable for anyone recovering from cancer to help improve quality of life and reduce the side effects of treatment such as fatigue, pain and muscle wasting.

A one-hour-long initial assessment is required before starting, which may be followed by several individual half-hour sessions, often in our studio. Options after these individual sessions are to either continue individually or join a Group Physiotherapy class.

Please refer to www.au.pincandsteel.com or contact us for further information. Sessions are claimable on private health or else with Medicare if you have a care plan referral from your GP.

Our oncology rehab programs aim to help women & men:

Regain strength, flexibility and confidence in their body
Improve stability and posture
Ease pain and muscular tension
Minimize weight gain and improve bone density
Learn new exercises to enhance their recovery after surgery and prevent long-term problems
Increase energy levels during and after cancer treatments
Achieve their own fitness goals with an individualised, safe training program
Gain a sense of control and boost the spirit

I don’t think I’ve ever felt so instantly comfortable going to an initial session, than I did with these lovely ladies! So incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, clear, and I walked out feeling really positive and extremely happy with my experience. I’m 28 weeks pregnant and feel at ease knowing I’m going to be supported throughout the next few months and beyond.Thank you again Luci and team!

We are extremely happy with the physio care and treatment provided by Luci to our daughter. Luci listened to her problem and tailored the treatment accordingly. We felt Luci understood the issues my daughter was having and worked to provide a solution to allow her to confidently continue her sporting activities. Luci was very caring, thorough and answered all our questions. We would happily recommend Luci and Inner Strength Bayside.
