Acupuncture / Acupressure
Acupuncture / Acupressure is a recognized supportive integrative therapy used in oncology settings mainly for nausea, pain, neuropathy symptoms, hot flashes, anxiety, dry mouth, and treatment-related quality-of-life support. In cancer care, it should be evaluated by evidence level, intended use, safety, interactions, and whether it is being used as conventional treatment, supportive care, an experimental adjunct, or an alternative claim.
