Exploratory outcome assessment of Qigong/Tai Chi Easy on breast cancer survivors.
CONCLUSIONS: Practices that include gentle movement (such as QG/TCE or our sham protocol) among women with a history of breast cancer may improve many facets of the cancer experience, including QOL, cognitive function, and PA patterns. Practicing QG/TCE may show some advantage for BMI reduction compared to non-meditative gentle exercise.
