From Lynne Eldridge MD, your Guide to Lung Cancer

 If you are in the majority of people living with cancer, you've probably thought about alternative treatments for cancer.  While a magic alternative treatment has yet to be discovered, many of these therapies can ease the symptoms caused by cancer and cancer treatments.

Best wishes until next week,

Dr. Lynne

Overview of Alternative Treatments

 This article provides an overview to some of the alternative treatments offered by some cancers, with links that cover what research tells us about the role of each of these treatments for people with cancer.


Yoga for Cancer Patients

 I seems everyone is talking about yoga these days.  Not surprisingly, several research studies have evaluated the effect that yoga may have on cancer patients.


Art Therapy for People With Cancer

 You don't have to be an artist - or even like art -- to benefit from art therapy.  If you're lucky, your cancer center may offer free art therapy classes for cancer patients like mine did, but if not, a few brushes and child's watercolor set are all you need to get started.


Acupuncture Benefits for Cancer Patients

 Perhaps the most studied alternative treatment for people with cancer is acupuncture - enough so that the National Institute of Health has endorsed its use for several health conditions.
