A small guest post from Roberta Walters at the Mesothelioma Journal…
Cancer treatment often causes nausea and other unpleasant side effects. Surgery can result in pain and the cancer itself is often painful.
Acupuncture has been shown to alleviate some side effects of cancer treatment. It works so well that even the National Cancer Institute speaks of its benefits. Studies have shown that acupuncture is effective at preventing vomiting caused by chemotherapy and other treatments.
For the best results, cancer patients should look for an experienced acupuncturist who focuses on treating the side-effects of cancer and its treatments. Proper acupuncture can alleviate the nausea and vomiting of chemotherapy, and greatly reduce pain. This can bring a huge improvement to the quality of life of anyone battling cancer and the problems that can accompany it.
