Hope and healing for all walks of life.
Acupuncture is a powerful tool for people who are dealing with cancer.
Acupuncture can:
- reduce the side effects of chemo and radiation, so that the individual can better tolerate cancer treatment - improving the prognosis.
- help address the root disturbances behind the cancer.
Acupuncture is a valuable piece of the cancer treatment puzzle. It does not introduce anything new to an already taxed system. By channeling energies to where they are needed most, the body's natural healing process becomes more efficient. If you are battling cancer, it's time to assemble a team of specialists that can approach it from all angles, including diet and lifestyle. Acupuncture can be an essential part of this team.
If blood counts are too low, laser can be used in place of needles alongside moxabustion and gentle acupressure, until blood counts rise to safe levels for acupuncture.
It is an absolute honour to help people manage and beat cancer. In my practice I treat patients who are dealing with cancer and I am overjoyed each time someone "graduates" to maintenance care in remission. With the generous guidance of my dear mentor Gerard Tan, the number of positive wins against cancer continues to climb. Like Gerard, I always act with hope of beating cancer, even at the latest stages.
We rejoice in every 'small victory', taking care of the spirit to stay focused on hope and healing.
