Latin dancing for better sleep in Hispanic cancer survivors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests if 8 weeks of Latin dancing can improve sleep quality for Hispanic and Latino(a) cancer survivors who have trouble sleeping. You would be randomly assigned to either start dancing right away or wait, and you'll help researchers see if moving to the music helps you rest better.
