Biomechanical analysis of the impact of reconstruction and mastectomy

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in Canadian women, but the survival rate is very high when diagnosed and treated early. However, many survivors experience upper limb problems after routine treatment, and these problems may be worsened by breast reconstruction. The goal of this project is to define upper limb body motion in breast cancer survivors with and without shoulder pain following breast cancer surgical procedures.

Bridging Access to Physiotherapy Care Gaps for Saskatchewan Mothers: Experiences of Postpartum Women and Health Care Providers

The goal of this project is to understand current gaps and opportunities for maternal health services, specifically physiotherapy care, among women with postpartum low back and pelvic girdle pain and dysfunction in Saskatchewan. The findings will lead to improved clinical outcomes and quality of life for postpartum women across Saskatchewan. 

We are hoping to recruit mothers from rural and remote Saskatchewan communities. Please see more information about participating in this project HERE.
