Cancer therapies

Description

Numerous therapies claiming to treat or even to cure cancer have been developed over the years by individuals and organizations, many before the advent of modern chemotherapy. These therapies and interventions are still in demand, largely in response to people’s disenchantment with orthodox medicine, although few have been shown to be effective or safe in clinical trials. It is, however, important for conventional healthcare professionals to appreciate that cancer patients may resort to alternatives, usually as an adjunct, but unfortunately, sometimes as a replacement for orthodox medical treatment and occasionally, as a desperate last resort when conventional medicine can do no more.
