Acupuncture Helps Cancer Patients


In 2002, over 10 million Americans suffered from some type of cancer.

Acupuncture, a complementary and alternative therapy used in cancer management has been used to manage cancer-related symptoms, treat side effects induced by chemotherapy or radiation therapy, boost blood cell count, and enhance lymphocyte and natural killer cell activity. In cancer treatment, its primary use is symptom management. Commonly treated symptoms are cancer pain, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and other symptoms that affect a patient’s quality of life, including weight loss, anxiety, depression, insomnia, poor appetite, and diarrhea.

Acupuncture's use in cancer patients has been recommended by the American Cancer Society (ACS) for the treatment of cancer and treatment-related symptoms. Pain, nausea, breathlessness, vasomotor symptoms and limb edema have all been found to respond to this treatment modality.

Furthermore acupuncture can act against carcinogens (factors attributable to cancer development) through its ability to reduce stress and enhance immune function. Several cancer centers have begun incorporating acupuncture for treating cancer-related symptoms such as pain and many patients have had significant results in the reduction of their symptoms.

With over a quarter century of experience Dr. XiPing Zhou has successfully helped many cancer patients. Complete our online consultation form today. Dr. Zhou will personally contact you and develop a comprehensive plan to treat your condition.
