Abstract
This trial aims to investigate the feasibility of teaching cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy within the National Health Service (NHS) to self-administer daily indirect moxibustion to St 36 zu san li. This will begin to assess whether this intervention can reduce chemotherapy induced pancytopenia, specifically neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia, and facilitate patients completing chemotherapy without delays or dose reduction.
