Yoga for Cancer Training
Yoga offers cancer patients and survivors a holistic approach to healing their bodies and minds. Not only can yoga help with the physical and mental effects of having cancer, but also the effects of treating cancer and helping clients regain agency over their bodies. If you’re interested in using yoga to help cancer patients and survivors heal, it’s critical to complete the right yoga for cancer training so you’re prepared to work safely and effectively with clients.
As an experienced yoga therapist and the lead teacher of my own yoga therapy program, my mission is to make yoga more accessible to others. Below, I’ll share my knowledge about the benefits of yoga therapy for cancer patients and survivors, how to use yoga with these clients, yoga cancer training, and more to help you on your journey. If you’d like to apply to our program, you can learn more.
Benefits of Yoga Therapy for Cancer Patients and Survivors
There are numerous benefits to using yoga therapy for cancer patients and survivors. Yoga can help improve physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health, tackling health conditions and side effects at every stage of these clients’ journeys.
Stimulating the Lymphatic System
The lymphatic system is a network of vessels and organs that carry lymph, a clear fluid that helps fight infection and disease, throughout the body. Cancer treatment can damage the lymphatic system, leading to lymphedema, a condition where excess lymph fluid accumulates in the soft body tissues, causing swelling and inflammation. This is especially common among breast cancer patients, where the generally accepted incidence rate is around 30%, as noted by the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
Yoga therapy can be a valuable tool in stimulating the lymphatic system and keeping lymph fluids moving, which can help with overall health. The lymphatic system is also a key component of the immune system, and improving lymphatic circulation can help the body better fight off infection and disease. Additionally, stimulating the lymphatic system can help the body eliminate toxins and waste products, further supporting overall health and wellness.
Certain standing poses and inversions can help promote lymph flow, though you should take care to modify them appropriately for cancer patients and survivors. This can reduce the risk of injury while still achieving the same benefits. Learning how to appropriately modify poses is a major component of yoga for cancer training.
Reducing Side Effects from Chemo, Radiation, and Medication
Studies have shown that yoga can lessen side effects caused by cancer treatments, such as radiation, chemotherapy, and medication. One study found that yoga reduced cancer patients’ anxiety, depression, and fatigue while improving emotional health.
The biggest benefit of yoga therapy for cancer patients, and something we always cover in our own yoga cancer training lessons. Cancer medication can have a significant impact on patients’ quality of life due to the side effects it produces.
Yoga therapy can help combat fatigue and lack of sleep, improve strength and flexibility, and give cancer patients techniques for dealing with anxiety and brain fog. It doesn’t eliminate the side effects of cancer treatment, but it can reduce them and provide better outcomes.
Treating Complications and Comorbidities
A complication is a health condition that occurs during or after another health condition or its treatment. By contrast, comorbidity is a pre-existing condition that coexists with another health condition and may affect its treatment. It is not uncommon for cancer patients to deal with complications and comorbidities. For example:
- A cancer patient may develop depression after their diagnosis or be dealing with depression that started beforehand.
- If someone undergoes surgery for their cancer, it could leave behind painful scar tissue.
- Cancer patients are more likely to develop osteopenia or osteoporosis.
- Ovarian cancer and certain cancer treatments can cause some people to start menopause early.
Yoga therapy has been shown to be an effective complementary treatment for managing complications and comorbidities that often arise during cancer treatment and recovery. By promoting relaxation, reducing stress and inflammation, and increasing physical and emotional well-being, yoga therapy can help improve quality of life and overall health outcomes.
Reducing Anxiety and Improving Mental Health
Many cancer patients and survivors face anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Yoga therapy can be a powerful tool to help address these issues and improve mental health, with a proven track record of reducing anxiety among cancer patients with a range of diagnoses. A yoga therapist who has received yoga for cancer training can equip patients and survivors with tools for staying in the present and eventually help retrain the brain and nervous system.
Treating Trauma
Cancer patients and survivors often experience trauma related to their illness, treatment, and overall experience. Trauma can manifest in various ways, such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which can have a significant impact on their mental and emotional well-being. Yoga therapy can help treat trauma in cancer patients and survivors, providing them with a holistic approach to healing:
- Yoga therapy can help cancer patients and survivors regulate their nervous systems, reducing the symptoms of trauma.
- Practices such as pranayama, or breathing exercises, have been shown to calm the mind and body, reducing stress and anxiety.
- Certain yoga poses can help release tension, promote relaxation, and allow clients to feel safe and grounded.
Trauma-informed yoga therapy is designed to center the client’s autonomy over their own body. A knowledgeable yoga therapist should use invitational language, rather than directives, with cancer patients and survivors, along with other trauma-informed techniques.
Regaining Mastery Over the Body and Health
Yoga therapy can help cancer patients and survivors reconnect with their bodies, which can be especially important for those who have undergone invasive medical procedures. Many cancer patients and survivors feel disconnected from their bodies and benefit from feeling agency over their own health and body again. Practices such as body scans, gentle movement, and meditation can help clients become more aware of their body and its sensations, promoting a sense of control and empowerment.
Why Become a Yoga Therapist to Help Cancer Patients?
The best way to help cancer patients and survivors with yoga is to become a yoga therapist and receive yoga for cancer training. A doctor’s scope is limited to treating the cancer, often leaving patients to cope with any consequences that don’t directly impact their cancer on their own. Yoga therapy training will teach you how to work with individuals in a variety of ways—not only with the cancer itself, but all the other things that might be related to a client’s cancer and negatively affecting them.
If you’re looking for a fulfilling career path that involves helping others, consider becoming a yoga therapist. As a yoga therapist, you can provide cancer patients and survivors with a holistic practice that helps improve physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Yoga is a safe, effective, and low-cost modality that can add considerable value to any cancer care, with demand continually growing among patients.
Whether you’re already an occupational therapist, physical therapist, massage therapist, mental health professional, or other healthcare practitioner looking to add yoga to your repertoire or you come from outside the medical field, yoga therapy training can equip you with the skills you seek and put you on a rewarding career path.

Jack ★★★★★ 5 months ago
I came to Bangalore to follow a 10 day private teacher training with Karuna, and it was a truly enriching experience.
I already hold a 200 h TTC in Hatha Yoga, as well as other diplomas. However, through my own experience, I feel that … More a 200 h yoga training is not enough to fully grasp the bigger picture of what yoga truly is. What I deeply appreciated with Karuna is that he also offers trainings focused on specific subjects, allowing for a much deeper and more embodied understanding.
For this private yoga training, I chose to explore mudras, mantras, and somatics. Being able to dive deeply into these themes helped me clarify and understand other aspects of yoga more clearly, not only intellectually, but also through direct experience, guided by Karuna.
The one to one format is a real gift. It creates space to ask questions, to slow down, and to spend more time on areas that personally need deeper integration. Karuna also shares related knowledge and encourages dialogue with what you are learning, making the whole process very alive and meaningful.
I truly appreciate how Karuna offers many different subjects and learning formats, and how he adapts his teaching to each person. His approach is attentive, sensitive, and respectful of individual paths.
Another beautiful aspect is that during the weekend, group students join the classes. Karuna skillfully manages to continue our individual learning while also allowing a collective learning experience. This opens the learning in a different and enriching way.
I had a wonderful time, and I will very likely continue other trainings with Karuna, either online (which is also an option 😉) or in Bangalore.
Namaste 🙏 -
