Above+Beyond Cancer

Fourteen months of chemo caused some painful nerve damage and left me weak and fatigued. Above + Beyond Cancer’s Recovery program has helped me reduce pain, increase strength, and boost my energy and endurance for activities and life. I’ve even noticed muscle definition returning to my arms! I appreciate how exercises are modified according to each participant’s needs. This program has been a tremendous benefit as I continue to battle cancer, but I’d recommend it for anyone needing help to improve their quality of life. Thank you!
