Abstract
Cancer rehabilitation in the United States has gone from a small obscure rehabilitation subspecialty to an area of intense interest. American cancer rehab's recent growth can be attributed to the ever increasing number of cancer survivors. The future of cancer rehabilitation may be accelerated by the concept of exercise as cancer medicine.
