PURPOSE:Aromatase inhibitor hormonal therapy causes joint pain in up to half of women, and up to 20% become non-compliant with the 5-10 year treatment schedule due to pain and discomfort. Non-compliance affects patient prognosis and survival. This pilot study investigated the efficacy of joint loosening yoga in improving aromatase inhibitor-induced joint pain and evaluated the feasibility of delivering the intervention on Facebook. METHODS:Breast cancer patients undergoing treatment with aromatase inhibitors with self-reported arthralgia were recruited via an IRB-approved announcement posted in two closed breast cancer support groups on Facebook to participate in a yoga study delivered on Facebook. Participants completed BPI, DASH, PRAI and WOMAC questionnaires online before and after the study. Intervention consisted of 12 joint loosening exercises performed in a chair, once daily for 12 minutes, Monday-Friday for 4 weeks. Asynchronous video demonstrations were available in a secret Facebook group and viewing confirmed by typing "done" (time-stamped) in comments. RESULTS:200 women responded. 38 met the inclusion criteria/consent, 26 completed the online consent, interventions and pre/post questionnaires. Participants were based in US, Canada and UK. Paired simple t tests results showed significant (P < 0.05) improvement in all the pain measures and quality of life parameters after yoga intervention compared to baseline. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides the first evidence that it is feasible to teach joint loosening yoga to patients on Facebook and that the intervention significantly improves aromatase inhibitor-induced arthralgia. Teaching yoga via social media may provide better access to this therapeutic modality to patients at all points in the cancer care continuum globally.
