Conditions - Cancer
Patrick Massey MD, PhD ALT-MED Medical and Physical Therapy Elk Grove Village IL and serving the Chicago area
Once a diagnosis of cancer is made, many look to alternative therapies to increase the potential for a good outcome. Unfortunately, most nontraditional practioners know little of chemotherapy medications and radiation therapy. Similarly most oncologists and their staffs know little about the benefits of nontraditional medicine. Integrative medicine physicians, like Dr. Massey, are able to walk in both worlds and make accurate and effective recommendations.
Mounting medical research is showing that, for the treatment of cancer, healthy people do better and debilitated people do worse...an integrative medicine approach can help.
Although there are no proven alternative cancer therapies that can cure cancer, select supplements (vitamins, herbs, mushrooms) may reduce side effects, improve outcomes and long term survival.
There are many therapies - acupuncture, vitamins/supplements, massage, tai chi and qigong - that fight the side effects that are common in the traditional medical approach including fatigue, malnutrition and hot flashes.

If I had not entered in this back pain program, I told for sure that I would have to have had back surgery for my three herniated disc's. I have talk to a few coworkers... They had back surgery and I cannot believe the shape they're in... Some are never going to be the same. Some had less severe problems than me and are now on permanent disability. I feel the 99.5% back to normal before the accident.
