strength after breast cancer

Strength After Breast Cancer (Strength ABC) is designed to educate breast cancer survivors that slowly progressive weightlifting performed twice weekly can reduce the onset, or worsening, of breast cancer-related lymphedema. Strength After Breast Cancer is evaluated and instructed by Dr. Vanessa Flora, DPT, CLT-LANA, CWS.

Participants in the program receive an evaluation with Little Red Door's contracted physical therapist, Dr. Vanessa Flora, and exposure to a lecture called the Lymphedema Education Session (LES), and four sessions with a trainer to learn the exercise program. Strength After Breast Cancer is a six-week program.
