"Physio classes."

About: Oncology / Physical Activity Classes

(as the patient),

I joined the online physical activity classes - seated group in October 2021. The classes were held every Thursday afternoon. At the start I was feeling not as strong as I was. In the classes we were doing exercises to strengthen the muscles in the body. The classes were done at a pace that I could cope with. I tried my best to attend most classes and the ones I was able to do I really enjoyed. The coach that took the classes was very considerate of my abilities and also encouraged me to try each exercise and if there were ones that I felt were awkward I was able to do them in an easier way. I really enjoyed the classes and each week I realised I was getting stronger and able to do alot more things for longer periods of time.

Dear Greece19,

Thank you for taking the time to post about your experience of the physical activity classes. I am delighted to hear that the classes made you recover your strength and endurance. I will pass on your kind words to Joe the Physical Activity coach and the rest of the physiotherapy team.

Best wishes,

Bernie
