It’s so enjoyable for me to observe that even the most hesitant
acupuncture patient becomes instantly convinced that the
acupuncture treatment is calming, comfortable…and downright
relaxing.
In clinical studies, acupuncture reduced the amount of pain in cancer patients. In
one study, most of the cancer patients treated with acupuncture were able to
stop taking drugs for pain relief or to take smaller doses.
Acupuncture is also very useful for support if you are undergoing chemotherapy,
radiation, or hormonal therapy. Because chemotherapy and radiation therapy
weaken the body's immune system, a strict clean needle method must be used
when acupuncture treatment is given to cancer patients.
Testimonials:
During my chemotherapy treatment for ovarian cancer in 2002, I experienced
three days of bone pain. They said my body was replenishing the blood with new
cells and that caused the bone pain. To ease the pain, I had Tylenol in my desk
drawer at work, my purse, my gym bag, my car...practically everywhere.
Between my 5th and 6th chemo treatment, I learn about Dr. Wang and her
miraculous results for a friend’s daughter who was on a waiting list for a bone
marrow transplant. I thought, "How could a few more needles hurt?" I began my
visits for acupuncture, which did not hurt a single bit. Then came my sixth round
of chemo. Chemotherapy is accumulative, so my sixth was going to be a doozy! I
was armed with my Tylenol...but to my astonishment, I had not used a single
Tylenol. I had not felt a moments worth of pain!
That was my convincing experience that acupuncture really does work. I saw Dr.
Wang through all 16 chemotherapy treatments and have been seeing her ever
since. I am happy to announce I am a six years ovarian cancer survivor! My word
of advice to other cancer patients is to integrate acupuncture with western
medical treatments for your optimum results. I know I did!
