Dear readers

We all know that exercise is healthy and does us good - both physically and mentally. However, with cancer and all its accompanying symptoms, it is anything but easy to engage in sporting activities. That's why the ZIO Winterthur has been offering oncological training and exercise therapy for some time now. Find out more about it in this newsletter. Do not hesitate to contact us with your questions!

Movement and training therapy
How targeted exercise improves quality of life

For people with cancer and for our specialists at the ZIO, it is extremely important to maintain the patient's individual quality of life and alleviate symptoms as much as possible during cancer treatment. OTT oncological movement and training therapy can help enormously here. At the Center for Integrative Oncology in Winterthur, patients can take advantage of this individually tailored exercise therapy. In this interview, oncologist Dr. Dirk Scharr and specially trained physiotherapist Moritz Rose explain how the new therapy can help and how it works at the ZIO Winterthur.

ZIO as a guest at TOP MED
Exercise is also good for cancer

Moritz Rose and Dirk Scharr also reported on their experiences with OTT oncological movement and training therapy on TELE TOP's health program TOP MED. "OTT is becoming increasingly important for oncology patients," said Scharr in an interview with presenter Corinne Wacker. Moritz Rose knows how well OTT is received in the vast majority of cases: "We accompany patients individually and make sure that they exercise in a controlled manner. Many of those who take advantage of OTT stick with it in the long term because they feel that it does them good." You can see what Rose and Scharr have to say about their work with OTT in the program online.
