Cancer Prehab / Rehab

Your cancer recovery journey starts by booking in for your Initial Comprehensive Nutrition Assessment. In this 50-60min session we will review your health history and cancer treatment and build up a picture of where your health is at right now.

We will also establish what your goals are for your future health & wellbeing. This helps you to commit to any changes you may need to make to your diet & lifestyle.

You will also receive a SOZO* Bioimpedance Spectroscopy assessment. This natty little device measures fluid status and body composition.

As a cancer ‘thriver’, you are at an increased risk of developing lymphoedema, and we can use these assessments to track changes over time, and hopefully prevent you from becoming a lymphoedema statistic!

Following your assessment I will forward your treatment plan via email along with any supplementation recommendations.

A follow-up appointment is recommended within 3 weeks to see how you’re going, tackle any challenges you’re experiencing, and answer any questions you may have.

Subsequent follow-up appointments can be spread out following your first follow-up appointment, and are generally every 3-4 months.

How many appointments should you have, and how often?

Typically, I work with clients over 5 sessions:

• Initial Comprehensive Nutrition Assessment

• 1st Follow up appointment – 3 weeks after initial assessment

• 2nd Follow up appointment – 2 months after first follow up appointment

• 3rd Follow up appointment – 3 months after 2nd follow up appointment

• 4th Follow up appointment – 3 months after 3rd follow up appointment

This enables us to track your recovery, address any challenges that come up, and make any changes along the way, and ensures you have the support you need.

After many months of intensive cancer treatment with regular medical appointments, the post-cancer recovery can become a bit daunting as regular contact with health professionals starts to diminish.
