Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

CRF influences engagement in everyday activities, mood, sleep, social relations, school attendance, academic achievement, and quality of life . It was significantly associated with low health-related quality of life in pediatric cancer patients including leukemia . Since attention to managing cRF has been drawn, only a few non-pharmacological strategies were tested for their effectiveness in reducing cRF among children. Physical activity (Pa) has been proven to be the most effective strategy . Yet adherence to Pa remains problematic.

Treatments
Experimental: Gyrokinesis exercise
Structure of a Gyrokinesis Session~1. Warm-Up:~ * Begin with gentle seated movements to prepare the body.~ * Focus on awakening the spine with small circles and undulating motions, coordinating with deep breathing.~2. Seated Exercises:~ * Perform a series of exercises on a stool or chair.~ * Emphasize spinal articulation, pelvic tilts, and side bends while maintaining rhythmic breathing.~3. Floor Work:~ * Transition to mat-based exercises focusing on core strength and flexibility.~ * Incorporate movements like leg lifts, spirals, and arching motions to engage different muscle groups.~4. Standing Series:~ * Conclude with standing exercises to enhance balance and full-body integration.~ * Use spiral movements and weight shifts to energize the body and improve posture.
