I have attended the Pinc & Steel Cancer Rehabilitation Pilates classes with Sarah Paxford from Recover and Wellbeing in Currumbin, Gold Coast Queensland. It is a 6 week course made possible by you.
I had a double mastectomy. I suffer from Lymphodema and have recently had a total hip replacement and previously a knee reconstruction.
I see Sarah once a month for a Lymphodema massage on my arm. I used to go to Pilates with Sarah but life got in the way and I haven’t done a Pilates class for many years.
When I commenced the class I was stiff and sore. After only one session with Sarah I had so much more movement in my joints. Sarah has devised a programme for me to strengthen my upper core and work on my tightness in my chest due to scar tissue.
I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to Pinc & Steel for making these classes available to me. I had not heard of your organisation before but you truly offer a wonderful service for women like me. You truly are a blessing. Sarah is a caring and dedicated provider for the free service you offer. After breast cancer surgery I don’t think you ever truly recover you just learn to live with your new body. Your provision of the Cancer Rehabilitation programme is a huge step in rehabilitation.
