In addition to conventional treatment for breast cancer, alternative treatment may help ease stress and relieve some symptoms of the disease and side effects of certain treatments. Alternative treatments for breast cancer may include acupuncture, massage therapy, and herbal remedies. Before you start any breast cancer alternative treatment, be sure to talk with your doctor; some alternative treatments may interfere with your regular cancer treatment.
