Alternative Cancer Treatment
The three “proven” methods of treating cancer—chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery—are standard protocol to treat cancer. Unfortunately, this conventional cancer treatment offers little chance for “real” recovery.
Major conventional cancer treatments are often have serious side effects that leave patients in agony. Some chemo agents are really toxic and suppress body’s immune system.
To alleviate these side effects, more and more people are now trying to balance between conventional treatment and alternative cancer treatment.
The use of antioxidant vitamin and mineral supplements like vitamins A, C, E and selenium are some example of alternative cancer treatment, which are believed to prevent or reduce some negative side effects of chemotherapy.
Other alternative cancer treatment includes a long list of herbs and herbal formula to boost the immune system. The main principle of alternative cancer treatment is to view cancer as a problem of body’s immune system.

Fatigue: exercise, massage, yoga
Nausea and vomiting: accupuncture, aromatherapy, hypnosis, music therapy
Pain: accupuncture, aromatherapy, biofeedback, meditation, massage, music therapy
Sleep problems: exercise, tai chi, yoga
