Acupuncture For Breast Cancer on ABC

This widely used form of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) promotes natural healing through stimulation by using very fine, sterile needles on defined parts of the body. Tapping into these areas releases blockages, causes energy to circulate, and restores balance within the body.
Acupuncture can help treat side effects of conventional cancer treatment such as:

1.      Pain associated with neuropathy and scar tissue, muscle and joint pain

2.      Mental and cognitive dysfunction such as brain fog, stress, anxiety and depression

3.      Endocrinological dysfunction such as hot flashes, hair loss and low libido

4.      Dry mouth and lowered immunity

5.      Poor sleep, nausea, vomiting and fatigue

Since acupuncture has few side effects, it may be recommended to soothe and reduce side effects of conventional cancer treatments.
Acupuncture is proven to effectively treat a broad variety of physical distresses and emotional disorders, as well as greatly enhance the recovery process after surgical procedures and chemotherapy treatments.
