Contact Cancer Exercise Specialist

I am a cancer survivor. Carol has been instrumental in assisting me with regaining strength and fitness following my mastectomy. I started going to Carol in the middle of receiving chemotherapy as I was hesitant to restart a fitness program on my own. I was unsure how much I could do since I was still experiencing some tightness from the surgery.

Following an initial assessment of my range of motion, Carol developed routines which included a variety of stretches, strength, and Pilates exercises that assisted me in my cancer rehabilitation. I was impressed with how Carol adjusted the routine based on my level of fatigue from the chemo I was experiencing that day. She also ramped up the level once I was able to do more during radiation and beyond.

I think that my workouts with Carol helped considerably to limit the effects of the cancer treatments, especially the fatigue and maintaining a positive mood. It also gave me the confidence to begin running again and I was able to complete a 5k just 3 weeks after completing radiation. I would highly recommend her to breast cancer patients, cancer survivors and others looking to get fit.

See you on Monday.
