Facility-Based Multi-Modal Rehab vs. Home-Based Resistance Exercise for Quality of Life in Breast Cancer Survivors
Sponsor: Valeria Chiu
Summary
This study evaluates the comparative effectiveness of a multi-modal facility-based rehabilitation program (therapist-led resistance exercise and relaxation training) versus a self-directed home-based resistance exercise program in post-treatment breast cancer survivors. Participants in both intervention groups will complete a 16-week program consisting of two exercise sessions per week.The multimodal, therapist-led approach is hypothesized to result in superior improvements in physical performance and quality of life outcomes compared to self-directed home exercise

Conditions
Interventions
Multimodal Resistance and Relaxation Training
A 16-week multimodal program consisting of resistance exercise and relaxation training. Participants undergo two sessions per week: one weekly session is conducted under the supervision of a physical therapist at Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital, and one weekly session is self-directed and performed by the participant in a home setting. The resistance exercise portion utilizes progressive elastic band training
Home-Based Resistance Exercise Training
A 16-week self-directed resistance exercise program. The intervention consists of two sessions per week performed independently by the participant in a home setting. The exercise regimen utilizes progressive elastic band training and is conducted without direct therapist supervision
