Neha P GotheEmily ErlenbachPublished in: Journal of cancer survivorship : research and practice (2021)
Overall, the yoga intervention was highly feasible and acceptable. The feasibility parameters from this trial can aid researchers in estimating recruitment rates for desired sample sizes to successfully randomize and retain cancer survivors in short- and long-term yoga-based efficacy and effectiveness trials. The findings also provide evidence to clinicians who can recommend up to 150 min of a combination of exercises-aerobic, yoga, or stretching-toning to their cancer patients in order to improve health and wellbeing during cancer survivorship.
