Summary

This study is testing whether a yoga program done by patients and their family caregivers together can help improve quality of life during radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. It aims to see if the program is practical to run and if it helps with fatigue, sleep, mood, and physical strength. About 236 patient-caregiver pairs will be randomly assigned to either do the yoga sessions or just complete questionnaires for comparison.
