Recovery from DIEP flap reconstruction is complex; physically, mentally, and emotionally. No two experiences are the same, yet we consistently hear the same challenges: uncertainty about what’s normal, fear of doing the wrong thing, and a clear gap between being “medically cleared” and feeling confident, capable, and truly functional in your body again. 

The Moving Beyond Cancer DIEP Program was created to bridge that gap. 

Developed by Accredited Exercise Physiologists specialising in cancer rehabilitation, and shaped by the real experiences of women who have undergone DIEP reconstruction, this program provides clear, evidence-based guidance across every stage of the journey. 

From preparing for surgery, to navigating the early weeks of recovery, through to rebuilding strength, confidence, and long-term function, you will be supported with the right information, at the right time. 

This is more than recovery. 

This is a structured, clinically-informed pathway back to function.
