Who am I?

I am an emergency physician. Used to the emergency department, to evidence-based science and to the relentless pace of the hospital.
My mission

Hello! My name is Victoria and I am going to tell you my story. At 48, I received a diagnosis that changed my life: breast cancer.


At that moment I understood something I had always explained to my patients, but now had to apply to myself: cancer is not only about receiving treatment, it is also about deciding to take an active part in our own process

My social media:
From day one

I chose not to stay in a passive role

I knew, from my training and my studies, that physical exercise could make a difference. So I made it part of my routine from the very start of chemotherapy. And I saw it for myself: fewer side effects, more energy, better spirits and, above all, the feeling that I too was contributing to my recovery.

Fewer side effects

Side effects were reduced.

More energy

Less fatigue, better physical and functional condition.

Better spirits

More vitality to get on with my life.

The ActiveHEAL community

We support other people on this same path.

It is not only about designing a personalised weekly exercise routine, but also about working on the psychological and motivational side, eating habits, lifestyle and meditation. Because we know that wellbeing during and after cancer does not depend on a single factor, but on a set of mutually reinforcing forms of care.

Today we also have solid scientific backing. A large study recently published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that people who followed a structured exercise programme after chemotherapy reduced their risk of recurrence and lived longer than those who did not. The evidence confirms what many already sensed: moving is healing

  • Exercise considerably reduces the risk of recurrence.
  • Exercise significantly increases overall survival.
  • Exercise is a medicine as powerful as a pharmaceutical drug.
  • Exercise prevents new primary cancers.
  • The prescription is essential: exercise must be structured and supervised.

A message from the founder

“That is why I want to invite you to take this step.”

It is not about extreme workouts, but about finding the movement that suits you and making it part of your life. It is about moving from the feeling of simply undergoing treatment to becoming an active person in your own healing process.

In my experience, this change of attitude transforms everything.
