How To Manage Your Cancer With Alternative Medicine

Alternetive medicine for Cancer- Activ Living

There are over 11.5 lakh new cancer cases in India each year. Cancer symptoms can include:

  • Extreme weight loss.
  • Pain in the body.
  • Changes in the skin texture and colour.
  • Extreme fatigue.
  • Unusual bleeding.
  • Wounds and sores that don’t heal.
  • Persistent cough and sore throat.

Along with the cancer symptoms, treatments like chemotherapy and radiation therapy also have many side effects like nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite, rough dry skin, and more.

While these treatments can be potentially life-saving, the side effects can leave patients feeling even worse than just the disease. Alternative medicine therapies carried out alongside regular treatment have been found to be effective in lessening the side-effects and symptoms to a great extent.

Therapies like acupuncture, aromatherapy, massage, music therapy and hypnosis can all help in some way to reduce the impact that cancer and its treatments have on the body. These therapies could prove to be a benefit to patients as they can make them more comfortable during an already stressful time.
