Darlene Thurm...
... is a personal fitness trainer who is one of just a very small handful  in the entire state who is certified to provide fitness training rehab for cancer patients. Because cancer is a complex and serious illness, medical management must be supplemented with other types of care such as specialized personal fitness training.

Successful rehabilitation begins with ...
... a comprehensive functional assessment which tests the strength, flexibility, mobility, and endurance of the affected area. After assessing physical abilities, Darlene develops and implements exercise routines which focus on strengthening a weak body part or function or on relieving pain. Clients are guided through the correct way to do the exercises and are provided with an exercise plan.

Working with Darlene with a specialized fitness program can hasten recovery and help relieve depression when cancer patients feel so broken up inside.
