Physical activity is proven to be a powerful, inexpensive and enjoyable way to prevent many chronic diseases, including cancer. Beyond reducing risk, exercise has been shown to improve survival rates and enhance quality of life. Experts widely agree that incorporating aerobic exercise, resistance training and fascial movement therapy is the best prescription. While there is still much to learn about the precise role exercise plays in disease prevention and chronic disease management, physical activity undeniably helps individuals feel better, potentially look better and most certainly move better.

According to the American College of Sports Medicine, it is highly recommended for cancer patients to seek out qualified practitioners well versed in cancer care and recovery. A qualified, compassionate therapist can teach cancer patients to become self-reliant, improve their physical function for everyday activities and empower them to live a quality life. Research shows that the more physically fit an individual is before, during and after treatment, the better their outcomes.

The goal of this course is to provide the most up-to-date theoretical information regarding breast cancer and its associated side effects, and to equip movement practitioners with specific Merrithew® programming protocols for supporting patients through all phases of their cancer journey.

Learning objectives

- Review current global facts and figures.

- Define breast cancer.

- Outline the importance of early diagnosis, review detection methods and identify treatments.

- Apply the Merrithew programming protocols for both the pre-operative and post-- operative stages.

- Review healing practices to enhance physical and emotional recovery.
