Integrative cancer care and treatment not only focusses on treating the cancer itself, but also takes into account your lifestyle and mental health. At GenesisCare, we understand that cancer can be an overwhelming and life-changing experience that can impact much more than your physical health.

We believe cancer care should be focused on you, not just your condition, and that it should include more than medicine. Our goal is to help you meet the physical, emotional and psychological challenges of cancer in the most positive way possible.

That’s why we offer integrative cancer care and treatment services that have been proven to benefit people with cancer. If you’re a patient at GenesisCare, you can access these therapies at no extra cost to you or your insurance provider. This truly integrative model of cancer care can help you to deal with the impact and side effects of your diagnosis and treatment, whilst working safely alongside your clinical treatments to maximise their beneficial effects.

At many of our centres, anyone having treatment with us will be offered a unique exercise medicine programme with one of our specially trained physiotherapists. Through research, exercise has been shown to improve treatment tolerance and cancer outcomes. Exercise medicine is available at our on-site exercise clinics and via our app.

We encourage you to take part, but there’s no pressure to do so. If you do, your physiotherapist will design a personalised exercise programme by working with you and your consultant. They’ll tailor it to you considering your cancer type, treatments, overall health, and your own personal goals.
