内容説明

CANCER FITNESS offers cancer patients, survivors, and their families comprehensive advice and an easy step-by-step programme, based on primary research, to begin improving their physical and emotional health and reclaim their lives beyond cancer. Cancer patients are clamouring for information about how to improve their chances for and quality of survival and have specific questions about exercise programmes - what is safe, how and when to begin, how much exercise should they do. CANCER FITNESS is a guide to help patients and survivors change the way they think and feel about exercise, to begin an exercise programme and make it part of their life. Through exercise, patients will regain some control over their body, which will help them overcome the shock of diagnosis, manage side-effects more successfully, and become aware of their body's ability to heal. This wonderful guide provides clear directions to safely start an exercise programme, and gives readers the tools to make exercise a long-lasting lifestyle change to heal body and soul.
