An Evidence-Based Guide to Complementary Treatments for Cancer Patients and Their Families

A cancer diagnosis brings you and your loved ones into a daunting world of confusing information about treatment options. What do you do first after receiving that diagnosis? Where do you turn now to ensure the best cancer treatment? You may have heard of using integrative medicine to complement mainstream care and alleviate the short- and long-term side effects of cancer treatment, but where do you find accurate information to help you steer away from unfounded promises and quack therapies? For which cancer treatments and side effects are acupuncture, massage therapy, yoga, nutritional counseling, and other integrative approaches helpful? Which promises are false?

Survivorship: Living Well During and After Cancer provides up-to-date, evidence-based guidance and information from Dr. Barrie Cassileth, a leader in integrative cancer treatment and founder of the Integrative Medicine Service at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Dr. Cassileth will help you and your family begin to separate the facts from the hype and guide you through treatment and beyond.
