Summary

Melanoma, a serious skin cancer, is increasingly prevalent in Canada. Surgical intervention is essential but poses significant physical and emotional challenges. Rehabilitation is crucial for recovery, helping patients regain strength and confidence while addressing psychological needs. In Ontario, new neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimens are being introduced to improve outcomes by shrinking tumors before surgery. Despite advancements, pre-habilitation and early post-operative rehabilitation services for melanoma patients are currently lacking. This pilot trial aims to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of pre- and post-surgery rehabilitation strategies for melanoma patients. The purpose of this pilot trial is to determine the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a rehabilitation strategy for individuals with melanoma pre- and post-surgery.
