Ensuring your body is in the best possible physical condition can help you to not only to feel better before and during treatments, but can help you to recover from the affects of those treatments.
Physical wellness includes things like exercise, a good diet, complementary therapies and rongoā Māori.
Eating well and exercising during and after treatment can make a big difference in how you feel. Doing this can improve physical and emotional wellbeing as well as your ability to cope with the side effects of treatment.
Additionally, complementary therapies, such as oncology massage, can help to reduce pain and help you to feel better emotionally and physically.
