Sue Callan-Harris and Pam Hin will lead our group through movements found beneficial for facilitating lymphatic flow and joint movement. Joints may be restricted by scar tissue, cording or fibrosis and can lead to muscle guarding, pain or tension. These movements are commonly prescribed by physical therapists and we’ve turned them into a gentle, fun and accessible dance. All the movements can be done seated and will be made to accommodate all ability levels so all may benefit.
Contact Christina or Ali in our programming department via email or (585) 473-8177 for more information about other programs and services for breast and gynecologic cancer survivors.
