Cancer was first mentioned in Chinese medical literature in AD 1171. Cancer is a malignant tumour where a cells normal growth regulatory system has stopped working and cells continue to multiply unchecked. Various factors can be involved including diet, emotional, genetic, environmental, lifestyle or exposure to radiation, chemicals or infections.

Chinese medicine and particularly acupuncture is a powerful way to attack cancerous cells and to help to enhance the body's healing power. It can be very effective as a support for patients going through chemo therapy or radiation. Acupuncture can help reduce side affects such as anxiety, nausea, insomnia, poor appetite, pain, sickness, and general weakness.
