CTV Winnipeg: U of M recruiting for cancer rehabilitation study
July 3, 2025 —
A new UM study is seeking Manitobans who have received cancer treatment over the past 10 years to take part in a survey about their physical rehabilitation needs.
Previous studies indicated that most people living with cancer experience long-standing side effects, both from their cancer and related treatments. Physical rehabilitation is an effective strategy to mitigate these side effects, but there is a gap in awareness of these services, said study lead Denise Dreikluft, a physiotherapist and a master’s student at the College of Rehabilitation Sciences, Rady Faculty of Health Sciences.
Dreikluft was interviewed about her research.
