Acupuncture has proven effective in treating many symptoms associated with cancer treatments. Studies have shown that acupuncture can alleviate nausea and restore appetite for patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation. Acupuncture can also help with hot flashes, peripheral neuropathy, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, and depression.
