We also offer clinical services such as acupuncture and massage, as well as integrative medicine consultations, which are one-on-one sessions designed to educate patients about how integrative therapies such as acupuncture, massage, yoga, and meditation can help manage treatment-related side effects and improve overall well-being and quality of life. These consultations also provide an opportunity to discuss the use of supplements to ensure safety during cancer treatment, as their use can cause potential risks for patients.
