Integrative Support After Cancer Treatment
Care for individuals affected by cancer does not end with the completion of active conventional treatment. After surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or other modern oncological interventions, many patients enter a new phase of recovery that requires ongoing physical, emotional, and mental support. This period is crucial for helping individuals regain strength, restore balance, and gradually return to their daily lives.
Post-oncological care focuses not only on recovery, but also on the management of lingering or delayed side effects, as well as continuous support for overall health and wellbeing. Common challenges during this phase may include persistent fatigue, disturbed sleep, night sweats, reduced concentration or memory, emotional vulnerability, and a general sense of depleted vitality.

The Role of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine
Acupuncture and herbal medicine can play a valuable supportive role during the recovery phase following cancer treatment. Used individually or in combination, these therapies aim to:
-
Reduce treatment-related fatigue and weakness
-
Improve sleep quality and regulate night sweats
-
Support cognitive function and mental clarity
-
Enhance emotional stability and stress resilience
-
Promote overall energy and physical recovery
Rather than focusing solely on symptom relief, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) seeks to address the underlying imbalance that may persist after intensive medical treatment. A central goal is to support the body’s immune function and natural self-regulating capacity, helping to rebuild strength and resilience over time.
A Holistic and Individualised Approach
Recovery after cancer is highly individual. At Klinic, acupuncture and herbal medicine treatments are carefully tailored to each patient’s unique body constitution, medical history, and current condition. Treatment plans are developed with sensitivity and respect, taking into account both physical recovery and emotional wellbeing.
In addition to hands-on therapies, patients may receive personalised lifestyle guidance, including advice on nutrition, sleep, gentle physical activity, and stress management. These elements are essential in supporting long-term recovery and improving quality of life.
Supporting the Return to Daily Life
Through an integrative and holistic approach, acupuncture and herbal medicine can provide sustained support during the post-oncological phase. By strengthening the body, calming the mind, and promoting balance, these therapies help individuals regain confidence, vitality, and a sense of stability—empowering them to resume their daily activities with renewed strength and resilience.
