Cancer support
Get relief from side effects
Acupuncture, Moxibustion and Chinese herbal medicine offer valuable support for individuals undergoing cancer treatment, providing complementary therapies that can help alleviate side effects, improve quality of life, and support overall well-being during cancer care.
Acupuncture serves as a cornerstone of supportive cancer care within this framework. By strategically stimulating specific acupuncture points, practitioners aim to regulate the body's energy flow, promote relaxation, and alleviate symptoms such as pain, nausea, fatigue, and insomnia commonly experienced during cancer treatment. Acupuncture treatments can also help manage treatment-related side effects, including chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, radiation-induced skin reactions, and surgical discomfort.

“I had such severe nausea during radiation and chemo and I really don’t know how I would have made it through without the doctors’ help. I received acupuncture and took the Chinese herbal formulas as well. After the conventional finished and I was declared in remission, they helped me get back on track. I was so weak with low energy, felt depressed, suffered from chemo fog and had lingering pain everywhere. Now I feel like myself again!”
