Staff Feature: Natalie Fujisawa!

 


Recently, Natalie Fujisawa, BKin, RKin, ACSM-CEP, and research coordinator for the Cancer Exercise and Physiotherapy Lab was featured in the EXCEL fall newsletter.

Natalie is the Hub CEP for the BC branch of EXCEL, an online exercise program for individuals living with cancer in rural areas.

Here’s a little bit more about Natalie:

What about EXCEL excites you the most?
I am very excited about empowering more people to reclaim more control over their health journey.

What would you like to achieve while delivering the EXCEL program?
I want to push for more awareness and resources for supportive health services in BC. I believe this is currently lacking all over the province. We need more health care providers to be aware that providing lifestyle and supportive care is a necessity for our health care system.

What is your favourite exercise?
I enjoy hiking throughout the year and strength training. My favourite exercise is deadlifting.
