Complementary
therapies saved my life, says author Carole
OToole. Diagnosed with advanced breast cancer
in 1994, OToole was given just 18 months
to live. Her battle with cancer subjected her
to extensive and grueling regimens of chemotherapy,
surgery, radiation, and a bone marrow transplant.
Determined to take an active part in her own healing,
she spent the next 7 years exploring and researching
more than 25 complementary therapies, from massage
and meditation to energy healing, Reiki, and shiatsu.
HEALING
OUTSIDE THE MARGINS is the result of that effort.
This book provides a step-by-step method for sorting
through the enormous range of complementary cancer
treatments. This is a compassionate, authoritative
guide for cancer patients, their families, and
loved ones. OToole presents practical information
on finding and interviewing practitioners, what
to expect from a treatment, how it helps, and
evaluating whether its right for you. Youll
find detailed information on healing therapies
such as Acupuncture * Ayurveda * Craniosacral
Therapy * Chiropractic * Polarity therapy * Rolfing®
* Biofeedback * Imagery * Homeopathy * Meditation
* Yoga * Qi gong * Tai chi * Osteopathy * Nutrition
Therapy, and many more.
Not
a book of miracle cures, HEALING OUTSIDE
THE MARGINS is about making the right choices
for your own cancer care. Its about integrating
the treatments your doctor has suggested with
new and exciting therapies that have helped millions
of cancer survivors. And most importantly, its
a tool for separating the quackery from the real
and effective treatments and programs and making
important choices that will help you physically,
mentally, and spiritually.
