Breast cancer is the second major reason causing death among women these days. It is caused due to the origination of cancer cells in the tissues of breast. The risk factors being unknown, about 70 to 80% of women are been affected worldwide. Researches indicate that the chances of getting breast cancer are high among women who are aged above 50. The risk factors include:

  • Genetics
  • Prolonged estrogen exposure
  • Aging in women (also in men)
  • Changing food habits & lifestyle
  • Environment

Hormonal treatments/radiation treatments used for treatment of any other medical complications.

Routine breast cancer treatments include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy hormonal and biological therapies like Taxmoxifen and Herceptin. The National Centre for Complementary and Alternative Medicines had identified and recognized the following treatments:

  • Mind-Body medicine: These practices involve mind’s capability to influence the body’s functions. They are meditation, yoga, imagery, visualization, music therapy and art therapy.
  • Biological practices: These practices include in-take of nutritional supplements, herbs, green tea and vitamins.
  • Whole medical systems: They include the various cultural based medical systems followed worldwide. To name some are acupuncture (Chinese based), Ayurveda (Indian based which involves herbs, massage and yoga), western medical systems like Homeopathy and naturopathy.
  • Manipulative and body based practices: These include massage therapy, chiropractic and osteopathic manipulation.
  • Energy medicine: This involves Qigong and Reiki. Qigong therapy involves the surrounding of an energy field which infuses the body. It includes qigong (energy cultivation) an ancient Chinese system of postures, exercises, breathing techniques and meditation.

Though studies/researches indicate that these alternative breast cancer treatments do not provide complete cure, it is very appealing to the breast cancer patients that it relieves stress even during illness. The patients normally tend to hide the alternative treatment details to their doctors fearing non-supportive or a negative reaction.

Alternative Breast Cancer Therapies

Jenny is a 42 year old mother of three. Being a housewife is quite easy especially when the kids are at school and the husband is at work. The rest of the day is spent cleaning the house and doing the laundry with an hour to spare at the local gym.

After taking a shower, Jenny felt some pain the breast. This could be just menopause symptom so there was no need to worry. The pain got worse the next few days and sensing this was something else, finally decided to visit the doctor.

The doctor was a family friend. The initial diagnosis was done by touching the breast followed by a scan using a mammogram.

There were a lot of cancer cells present so another test had to be done. The doctor had to be sure so a sample was extracted and sent to a pathologist for analysis. After testing, it was only then that a woman’s greatest fear has become a reality. Jenny was diagnosed with breast cancer and this was already on the 3rd stage.

The third stage means the cancer has grown to more than 5 cm. in size and has spread to other parts of the body. This leaves removing the breast useless since the disease can no longer be contained.

Can there still be hope for Jenny who is already in the advanced stage of breast cancer? The truth is, the chances of recovery are very difficult.

Being informed of breast cancer is a shocking experience. There were some initial signs of disbelief then acceptance. The doctor explained everything to Jenny including the treatments available and the survival rates.

This was going to be Jenny’s greatest battle and this was just the beginning of a long struggle.

Chemotherapy was the best option now. The drugs produced some side effects like nausea and skin rashes but Jenny just thought this was short term since there is something bigger growing inside the needed to be killed.

Both Jenny and the doctor went ahead with removing the breast with a procedure called a mastectomy. Since modern medicine can have this reconstructed, this was a small price to pay. To make sure that all the cells had been wiped out, radiation therapy followed.

Jenny was happy to hear that the cancer was gone nearly a year after the diagnosis was done. Some people say this was a miracle since the battle which had taken so much was finally won. There was a huge party and everyone who prayed and supported were there to celebrate a second chance at life.

The doctor pointed out that the cancer can recur. This is the reason that Jenny still had to visit the clinic often for therapy and tests to make sure everything was wiped out.

Advanced breast cancer is sometimes hard to tell. A self examination at home is not enough which is why the patient should go to the doctor for a checkup once or twice a year.

There are a lot of people who die of breast cancer and a significant number are also diagnosed every year. The person can fight hard like Jenny did or simply give up to the disease.

Until a cure is found, the only thing people can do is work on the options and hope that a miracle will happen.

7 Tips Alternative Breast Cancer Treatment

Posted by in Alternative Breast Cancer on November 20, 2011

By Kerry R. Atma

When my partner was diagnosed with HER2 breast cancer she was told she needed a masectomy, with radical chemotherapy and radiation therapy. She chose, not lightly, to look for an alternative breast cancer treatment. We didn’t leave many stones unturned in search for a breast cancer cure and I wish that someone had given me these tips because it would have saved my partner stress, anxiety and physical suffering and tens of thousands of dollars.

  1. Watch the rush to get it done now. Ask your surgeon how long they think you could delay any proposed surgery. My partner’s first impulse was to have an operation immediately. A 2 cm tumor can take 20 years to develop so her surgeon said that a delay of 6 weeks would not affect the outcome. My partner used that period to contact practitioners who advised her on other therapies and this helped change her mind about surgery.
  2. See if you can talk to people who have had cancer and used natural methods to heal themselves. This includes alternative medicine practitioners. The first woman my partner saw was a former nurse who cured herself from breast cancer and hearing first hand that it was possible, was as important to my partner as the treatment she offered.
  3. A good naturopath may cure you – but they might just kill you as well. My partner had a naturopath who had a history of success with cancer. For several months the tumor was kept in check and his system said that my partner was in excellent overall health. The tumor then exploded into growth suddenly – and HER2 cancer cells can growth very fast. At this stage he was out of his depth and could only recommend surgery.
  4. The same applies to acupuncture. My partner had a very good acupuncturist who worked with cancer patients. He constantly monitored the tumor and his treatment probably helped to keep it in check for a year – but ultimately acupuncture was ineffective.
  5. What works for some people may not work for you. Another alternative breast cancer treatment we tried was intravenous sodium bicarbonate – pioneered by Italian oncologist Dr Simoncini. We had to import our 7.5% solution of sodium bicarbonate from Israel (it is also available from Thailand) when USA supplier Baxters made it unavailable – except to hospitals – in Australia and New Zealand. While some people report success, it had no effect on my partner’s tumor – and when her doctor spoke to Dr Simoncini he said that she would have to have surgery following the treatment anyway.
  6. Keep searching – there are alternative treatments that are highly effective.Dr Robert Wickman, based in Ecuador, possibly saved my partner’s life. He certainly saved the life of one woman who was terminal with bowel and liver cancer, cured another of bowel cancer (and avoided colostomy) and a man of prostate cancer in the 5-6 weeks treatment time my partner was there (all these confirmed by independent oncologists). He uses a range of treatments including Rife technology, and alkalizing the blood and detoxing the body. My partner had no cancer according to his system but her blood tests still had cancer markers. He expected her tumor to soften and breakdown – but it didn’t.
  7. Never give up but keep exploring whether you have subconscious beliefs that are working against your healing. Working with kinesiology, we found that my partner had a subconscious belief that she didn’t deserve to be healed. We defused this belief and she affirmed that she deserved to be healed. It was only then that my partner – who was at a point of desperation and despair – came across Dr Chen in Auckland New Zealand. Her breast tumor was by now massive, occupying a large part of her breast, and was haemorrhaging every 4 to 7 days, taking her iron levels so perilously low that she had booked herself in for a blood transfusion. Instead she started Dr Chen’s treatment – although he thought the tumor was too big to be treated successfully. Within 10 days the bleeding stopped completely. The unique herb and oil combination that Dr Chen uses decimated the tumor, reducing it by 70% within ten weeks and the progress continues.
    Chen and a colleague developed this treatment by using modern technology to process traditional Chinese anti cancer herbs and oils in a new way – and they tested it for 20 years in China.
    My partner was only the third Westerner he had treated with his cancer herbal treatment – and we wish that we had discovered him two years ago we she first found out – it would have saved us a small fortune and with the tumor the size it was then – the treatment would have been completed in 8 to 12 weeks and our lives would have been not dominated by the specter of cancer.
