Acupuncture Can Help

Top cancer centers, such as MD Anderson, Moffit Cancer Center, and Memorial Sloan Kettering have acupuncturists on staff for cancer support during every step of their cancer treatment. Fear, anxiety, and a sense of overwhelm are often part of a new cancer diagnosis. At this stage acupuncture can help to reduce and manage stress and other symptoms you may be experiencing as you begin your journey.

Chemotherapy and Radiation may be lifesaving therapies, but they often have life altering (significant) side effects and associated symptoms. Acupuncture has been proven to reduce fatigue and nausea associated with chemotherapy treatment.

Patients who receive regular acupuncture treatments during chemotherapy are noticeably more energetic and more likely to be able to complete the recommended course of care.

Acupuncture has also been shown to increase the “natural killer” or cancer fighting cells in the body making for better clinical outcomes.

Potential side effects such as peripheral neuropathy, constipation, and mucositis can also be well managed with acupuncture.

Surgery is often an integral part of cancer treatment. Acupuncture has been shown effective to help prepare patients for surgery and improve surgical outcomes by increasing organ function, reducing stress in the body and strengthening the immune system.

After surgery acupuncture speeds up recovery by improving circulation, regulating sleep and improving digestion.
