Bounce Back From Breast Cancer

 Offered on IFitnessNow.com Video Platform

This specialty class is for Pilates teachers who are working with individuals recently diagnosed with breast cancer that have been cleared to exercise by their physicians.

The objective of the course is to design fitness programs specifically for this population, and to assist them in gaining control over their lives in the Pilates Studio. This class teaches a Four-Phase Exercise Protocol for Post-Breast Cancer Treatments, defines oncologic and reconstructive treatment types and the side effects from these treatments, and encourages critical thinking skill development so Fitness Professionals can tailor each program individually. Exercise guidelines are taught within the Pilates Method Scope of Practice.
