Abstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide, yet there is little information about using acupuncture to support people living with and beyond the disease…In this two-part paper, the authors present four case studies illustrating how acupuncture affected a range of troublesome symptoms experienced by patients who had completed cancer treatments (surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy). Part 1 (this paper) presents caes illustrating comparatively short courses of acupuncture for two patients experiencing acute and chronic consequences arising shortly after cancer treatment. Part 2 is to be published in Vol 9, No 1, 2018.
