Cancer Rehabilitation
Our Cancer Rehabilitation program, which draws on The Pinc and Steel Cancer Rehabilitation Program, 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 contact us for further information. Sessions are claimable on private health or else with Medicare if you have a Chronic Disease Management Plan from your GP.

Awesome 1st consult at Inner Strength with Alannah. Felt really heard and understood and as a result feel really confident in my treatment plan.
Inner Strength Bayside is amazing! The staff are so lovely, caring, and welcoming. Kym at reception is always cheerful and kind—she’s genuinely caring and often helps with my 11-week-old during the Mums & Bubs class, which makes a huge difference.The physiotherapists are incredibly knowledgeable. I see Caitlin for the Mums & Bubs sessions, and she makes sure my program is tailored to my stage of recovery. Even though there are four people in the class, it honestly feels like a one-on-one session. Everyone follows their own individual program, and the team tracks your progress each session, which really helps you stay on track. Caitlin even gives my baby cuddles if she’s unsettled—she’s so caring and hands-on!I’ve also seen Alannah for pelvic floor physio and found the appointment extremely thorough. She explained everything so clearly, and I left feeling confident and informed about why I needed to do specific exercises.This place is not only professional and knowledgeable but also warm and supportive. My baby and I always feel welcome and looked after. Highly recommend!

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.
