I wasn’t given a rehab plan. So I made one for us.

At-home exercise programs designed specifically for breast cancer survivors- during and after treatment.

“I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 34 years old just shortly after my baby’s first birthday. I knew I had to not just survive this disease, but be as functional as possible for my baby boy, both during and after treatment.”

Ashlynne Bachman,

PT, DPT, PORi Certified Breast Cancer Therapist, Breast Cancer Survivor

As a Physical Therapist I knew rehab and exercise would be vital to my function and quality of life; and also now understand how often these aspects of care are overlooked. So I created exercise programs for myself as I transitioned through each stage of treatment. All of the exercise programs you’ll find here are based on those I created for myself.

The side effects and complications from breast cancer treatment can be debilitating, but it doesn’t have to stay that way. Unfortunately, many people are never given the resources necessary to manage these issues.

I just wanted to reach out and let you know how much your free program helped me. Im at the 6 week post surgery mark and just had my 2nd appt with a PT who specializes in lymphedema and breast surgery rehab. She said my progress is well beyond what's typical. I really think your program is a big part of that.

Life after a breast cancer diagnosis brings a new normal, but with the right resources and support, it can be a beautiful one. My mission is to make those resources widely accessible to every survivor.
