Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Smartphone app-based health interventions are an innovative way to deliver psychosocial cancer-care. In the SEAMLESS study, the investigators aim to evaluate a 4 week smartphone app-based mind-body intervention (MBI) in cancer survivors post-treatment. This is a randomized controlled trial, with a waitlist control group. Participants will be assigned to either receive the intervention immediately after enrollment or will need to wait for 3 months to receive the intervention.
