Complementary Alternative Therapy for Cancer Patients
Complementary Alternative medicine (CAM) or Complementary Alternative Therapy is the term for medical products and practices that are not part of standard medical care. People with cancer may use CAM to:
- Help cope with the side effects of cancer treatments, such as nausea, pain, and fatigue
- Comfort themselves and ease the worries of cancer treatment and related stress
- Feel that they are doing something to help with their own care
- Try to treat or cure their cancer
