Use of Gentle Yoga for Survivors
The Christina Phipps Foundation fosters the use of yoga as part of the restorative and rehabilitative process following breast cancer surgery. Our instructors are trained to recognize that such surgery will often result in lingering pain and a reduced range of motion. They bring a gentle yoga approach to each of their students and remain sensitive to individual limitations.
