Cancer and Chemotherapy
Patient Testimonials
“I was so happy to hear of your acupuncture services from Cornucopia House. They suggested I try acupuncture to see if it would help the awful feelings of nausea caused by my chemotherapy treatments. I was very surprised to find that even the first treatment gave relief. I later had treatment for the pain and tingling in my toes and thumbs and found the results quite remarkable.”

“I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic lymphoma and began two years of chemotherapy. I coordinated it so that after I had chemo, I would go to acupuncture. The difference was remarkable. After that first month, when I started acupuncture, my weight stabilized, and I even gained a few pounds. I was able to walk every day and I had a noticeable increase in energy after each treatment.”

“Acupuncture was tremendously helpful to me when I was going through surgery and chemotherapy for breast cancer. It helped keep my immune system as healthy as possible which translated to me getting all my chemo treatments on time and shortening the time I was out of work recovering after surgery. Acupuncture really helped with appetite disturbance and with what I called "chemo brain," I was easily distracted and unable to concentrate. After having an acupuncture treatment I would instantly be more focused, it was amazing and so relieving! The quiet and meditative quality of having an acupuncture treatment was so soothing and relaxing, and something I still look forward to. I would recommend acupuncture to anyone undergoing chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery.”
