About this trial

This clinical trial aims to compare the effects of a concurrent physical exercise program (aerobic and resistance training) combined with music medicine versus exercise alone on self-perception (self-esteem and body image), physical condition (strength, fatigue, cardiovascular endurance) and general well-being (quality of life and sleep quality) in female breast cancer survivors.

The main research question is:

\- Is a program that combines physical exercise and music therapy more effective than physical exercise alone in improving self-perception, physical condition, and general well-being in breast cancer survivors?

Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:

* One group will receive concurrent physical exercise combined with music therapy. * The other group will receive the same exercise program without music therapy. Assessments will be conducted at three time points: before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, and 6 months post-intervention.
