RTS Cancer Program
This program (RTS) is a resource that will allow patients to better cope with the many physical and mental issues that arise when dealing with a cancer diagnosis.
Physical & Mental Benefits:
- Enhanced ROM, flexibility, strength, balance, sleep patterns and overall sense of well-being.
- Gain a stronger and more accurate awareness of their body which allows them to communicate their needs effectively with their health care provider.
- Calms the nervous system and alleviates the stress and anxiety which lower immune functioning and hinder healing.
- The relaxation techniques allow the patient to acknowledge and accept the realities of the situation and cope with the fear and uncertainly that accompanies a cancer diagnosis.
