Naturopath Offers Complementary Treatments For Cancer Care- WMUR Manchester

Our office was recently broadcast on the news, discussing the addition of complementary medicine for cancer care. For many battling with cancer, the inclusion of alternative medicine as part of the treatment therapy can greatly enhance their quality of life. The news report interviewed Dr. Lisa Alschuler, a naturopath and author of "The Definitive Guide to Cancer, and Integrative Approach to Prevention, Treatment, and Healing".

"We're talking about taking the best that oncology has to offer and combining it with the best of natural medicine," Alschuler said. "In that combination, people avail themselves to all tools possible."

While surgery, chemotherapy and radiation offer tremendous benefits for those suffering with cancer there are often many unwanted side effects associated with these types of therapies. Using alternative medicine such as natural supplements, acupuncture, exercise and lifestyle changes can offer faster recovery and lessen side effects.
