Yin and Yang of Acupuncture Research: Examining the "parts," understanding the "whole"
The Integrative Medicine and Wellness Program delivers and evaluates a range of integrative supportive services designed to help patients cope with the cancer experience and improve their overall sense of well-being. To further explore the relationship between cancer care and integrative medicine, the Abramson Cancer Center is hosting a lecture on the topic.
“Using acupuncture for pain and symptom management is an increasingly popular treatment choice,” says Jun Mao, MD, MSCE, Director of Integrative Oncology Initiative at the Abramson Cancer Center. “Emerging research supports the safety and effectiveness of acupuncture for managing common symptoms such as nausea, pain, and fatigue for cancer patients.”
