CancerFIT

Cancer and its treatment may limit the physical activity of patients and survivors. This can result in the loss of strength and overall fitness. With the right help, patients, those in remission and survivors can increase their physical activity because it is safe, achievable, and helpful.

CancerFit is a free service for current patients, those in remission and survivors. Individuals in current treatment have the opportunity to participate throughout treatment and for up to 12 weeks of remission - after which our team of Specialists will guide you to your next steps in recovery.

Our team will create a program that is tailored to your specific needs. Training sessions are offered by appointment only and are 30 minutes in duration.

CancerFit requires a referral for participation. Simply ask your provider about the program and request a referral.

CancerFIT

"People have remarked, 'You look so much better. Your skin looks better,' so it's done something for me physically and mentally. The best part of the program, I think, is getting me out of that slump that cancer put me in."
