ReNEW for CANCER PATIENTS
The latest research shows that regular fitness physical activity is linked to increased life expectancy after a diagnosis of cancer, and in some cases can decrease the risk of cancer recurrence. Other benefits include:
Reduced fatigue
Reduced nausea
Improved balance
Improved self-esteem
Lessened anxiety and depression
Better overall fitness and health
ReNew is our own specialized program that is customized to the needs of each participant and provides insight into diet and nutrition, as well as increasing strength and flexibility. Fitness classes and strength training will include light medicine balls, resistance tubing, and various floor exercises. Through nutritional counseling we’ll work to develop healthy eating habits and lifestyle behaviors. Participants will also be encouraged to remain active on their own with exercises that can be done at home and even at work. For maximum benefit, we suggest participants attend two sessions per week.
