Last week, the Local Cancer Association of Benifaió organized a workshop-conference on Oncological Yoga, led by Espacio Sowelum, as part of the Pink October program.

This is a variant of traditional yoga applied to individuals undergoing oncological treatment, either during or after intervention. Oncological yoga is characterized by a more clinical-therapeutic approach, aiming to promote the practice's therapeutic and emotional benefits.
It is currently being introduced as part of a new approach to treating cancer patients, due to its proven benefits in physical recovery and emotional management.
The benefits of oncological yoga extend from the physical body, serving as a complement to rehabilitation, to the mind and emotional management of the process involving the illness and its consequences.
