Cancer
Why Acupuncture and East-West Medicine Should Be Your Adjuvant Cancer Treatment
Our bodies are miraculously made up of 100,000,000,000,000,000 cells that harmoniously communicate with each other in order to maintain homeostasis (the balance of life) of the human body. While some of our cells are constantly dividing and forming new cells, others are dying leaving room for the newer cells. The growth and shape of cells begins in the embryonic phase of development when an electro-magnetic field dictates the direction of cellular growth. Cancer cells are abnormal cells that may grow uncontrollably and tend to grow against the directions dictated by the body’s natural electromagnetic flow. These abnormal growths may become large and are called tumors. Not all tumors and abnormal growths are cancerous. A non-cancerous tumor is called benign, while a cancerous tumor is called malignant.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is the only medicine that is natural, and evidence based with supporting documented empirical clinical results going back 2000 years that acknowledges the body’s natural electromagnetic flow and how to manipulate it to control and discourage abnormal cellular growth. A recent studied showed Functional Treatments using Traditional Chinese Medicine to be more effective than chemotherapy less all the side effects. Additionally, Traditional Chinese Medicine can play a key role as an adjuvant treatment for cancer patients by reducing the side-effects and increasing the success of more aggressive radiation and chemotherapy treatments. Functional Medicine treatments with East-West Medicine should not be overlooked.
