Cancer Rehab for Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer primarily caused by asbestos exposure, affecting the lining of the lungs, abdomen, heart, or testicles. Symptoms often include chest pain, shortness of breath, and abdominal swelling. Treatment options typically involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and immunotherapy, aiming to manage symptoms and prolong life.


Yoga and other low-impact exercises can be very beneficial when treating mesothelioma. Through mindful breathing and gentle stretching, yoga helps manage pain, lower stress and anxiety, and enhance physical function. Furthermore, it can strengthen the immune system, improve mental health by reducing anxiety and depression, and fight cancer-related exhaustion, making it a useful adjunctive treatment for patients.
