Our goal is to help patients
build muscle mass and muscle strength, increase flexibility
and endurance, and improve functional ability. Additional
goals include reducing the severity of therapy side-effects,
preventing unwanted weight changes, and improving energy levels
and self esteem. A long-term objective is to help participants
develop and maintain their own physical activity programs,
which become a vital part of their lives after they have graduated
from the LSLW programs. Research is now showing that physical activity may decrease recurrence and increase survivorship for cancer patients. Living Strong Living Well is sponsored
by the Health Improvement Program. Certified fitness instructors
trained in supportive cancer care will work with participants
to develop a personalized program.
