Symptom Relief

TCM symptom relief

TCM offers many ways to ease common cancer symptoms and treatment side effects.

TCM relief for cancer pain

Cancer pain severely affects quality of life. TCM can support pain relief alongside conventional treatment. Evidence supports use of LI4, ST36 and similar points for cancer pain.

Herbs

Some Chinese herbs have analgesic effects and can reduce pain level and frequency.

  • Duhuo back and limb pain
  • Xuduan bones, bone pain
  • Chuanxiong blood-moving, pain relief
  • Yanhusuo common pain reliever

Acupuncture

Acupuncture can promote endorphin release; guidelines support it for moderate–severe cancer pain. LI4, ST36, BL23 are often used.

  • LI4 Hegu general pain
  • ST36 Zusanli abdominal pain, vitality
  • BL23 Shenshu back pain, kidney support

Massage

Gentle massage relaxes muscles, improves circulation and lowers pain sensitivity—suitable for cancer patients.
