Two archery instructors in Uruguay, Alejandra Borsani and Andrea Castroman, founded Flechas de Vida (“Arrows of Life”) in May 2023 to help breast cancer survivors recover using archery. Inspired by a similar program in Spain, they discovered that the vibrations from archery help prevent lymphedema, a common post-surgery condition, and improve upper body mobility. The program has been highly successful, starting with two patients and growing to 42 active participants with a waitlist of over 100 women. Open to women a year or more after mastectomy with doctor’s consent, Flechas de Vida offers free access to archery clubs and equipment for six months. The initiative also aims to enhance mental health and social connection. Borsani and Castroman have seen immediate improvements and hope to expand the program across South and Central America, seeking support to make this therapy accessible regionally.
