Acupuncture Denver
Most of you all know my philosophy, “Try everything until you find what works best for you.” It is estimated that 11 million people across the country are suffering or diagnosed with one form of cancer or another. The effects of the treatment of cancer can sometimes be far worse than the patient or their family ever thought. Acupuncture has been used for since the invention of chemotherapy to treat the side effects of the chemotherapy. Many hospitals are even adding Acupuncture to their provided services to help those people going through chemotherapy. Here is a great news article about Acupuncturists working in hospitals, http://www.nbc-2.com/story/15696599/health-matters-using-acupuncture-for-side-effects-of-chemotherapy.
The most common side effects of chemotherapy as reported by the National Cancer Institute include; Anemia, Appetite Changes, Bleeding Problems, Constipation, Diarrhea, Fatigue (Feeling Weak and Very Tired), Mouth and Throat Changes, Nausea and Vomiting, Nerve Changes, Pain, and Swelling. Many people are affected by these common side effects however, many people do not know that Acupuncture can effectively help those patients manage or resolve the life limiting side effects of chemotherapy.
