While Child's Pose is generally considered safe, it's important for cancer patients to consult with their healthcare team before beginning any new exercise or yoga practice. Certain conditions or treatments may require modifications. For example:
Post-Surgery: Patients recovering from surgery, especially abdominal or back surgery, should avoid deep forward folds until fully healed. Bone Metastases: Individuals with bone metastases need to be cautious with weight-bearing poses to prevent fractures. Fatigue: Cancer-related fatigue may limit a patient's ability to practice yoga. Modifications or shorter sessions may be necessary.
