Leukemia and Lymphoma
Society
Dr.
Rheingans has a patient whose sister was affected by
this. It is a very important cause to her. So much so
that she became a bone marrow donor because of it!
Helping Mesothelioma Victims and
Their Families
Dr. Rheingans supports
Mesothelioma.com, a leading web resource for those
affected by mesothelioma, a rare form of cancer that is
caused by previous asbestos exposure. In recent years,
acupuncture has been increasingly integrated into
palliative cancer treatment programs, including those
for patients who are battling mesothelioma.
The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that more
people worldwise utilize acupuncture and
non-traditional therapies than any other type of health
care treatment, and recognizes acupuncture as an
effective method of treating individuals who are
undergoing chemotherapy and other cancer-related
treatments and experiencing various side-effects,
including pain and fatigue.
Much information relating to acupuncture and
alternative therapies are featured on
this website.
Additionally, please review this article for information on acupuncture
as a part of integrative oncology treatment.
