Effects of a tailor-made yoga program on upper limb function and sleep quality in women with breast cancer: A pilot randomized controlled trial

This pilot trial revealed that the yoga program was feasible to be implemented for women with primary stage breast cancer. Although yoga was not found to be effective in improving the upper limb function, it improved sleep latency, HRV, shoulder muscle strength and arm symptoms of women with breast cancer.
