@Rad_Chat podcast: Prehabilitation with Jo McNamara and Naman Julka-Anderson

A classic @Rad_Chat podcast episode, where therapeutic radiographers Jo and Naman explore what you can do before radiotherapy treatment to support yourself.

Jo covers the three pillars: nutrition, keeping active and mental wellbeing and shares simple advice that can give you back some control.

Plus, many great reminders and tips:

  • prehabilitation might have a different name at the hospital where you have treatment – so remember to ask or check!
  • the importance of moisturising your skin
  • reducing the chance of side and late effects through prehab and rehab
