Frequently Asked Questions about Alicethenics
What problems can Alicethenics help?
Alicethenics can be helpful if you are experiencing any of the following due to your breast cancer surgery (such as lumpectomy, mastectomy or lymph node dissection):
Limited range of motion in your arms and/or shoulders
Decreased flexibility
Feelings of stiffness on that side of your body
Feeling of numbness caused by decreased blood circulation and/or lymphatic flow
Painful swelling in the arms or chest (i.e. Lymphedema)
Weakened immune system resulting in frequent illness
Does the program require any special equipment? For best results you should have the following:
Exercise mat
Tall, sturdy chair or average-height kitchen or bathroom counter (to grasp during some of the exercises)
Hand-held “grip strengthening” rubber exercise balls
How soon after breast surgery can I do these exercises?
Every case is different, and you should always consult your physician before beginning any new exercise program — especially after cancer treatment. That said, you should definitely wait to start this exercise after breast cancer surgery program until after you are back home, all of your drainage tubes have been removed, and your physician has given you approval to resume light exercise.
Are the exercises in this program strenuous? No. These are very slow-paced, gentle exercises. This is not a cardiovascular workout.
