Assisting Fatigued Breast Cancer Survivors
in their Healing Journey.

Healing for Survivors 

Done with Breast Cancer Treatment,
but still ?


Greetings and welcome to our website.  If you are a breast cancer survivor who is still feeling fatigued even after completing treatment,  you are not alone.  Unfortunately, up to a third of breast cancer survivors report feeling fatigued even after treatment, sometimes for years afterwards.

Even though modern medicine has not come to a conclusion on why some survivors remain fatigued after treatment, there are things that can be done to help the fatigue.  One treatment that shows promise for relieving fatigue is a complementary medicine technique called hands-on-healing.  A few studies suggest that hands-on-healing helps with fatigue and quality of life in cancer.

We are conducting a study comparing hands-on-healing versus simple touch to help determine whether these treatments might help with fatigue as well as improve immune function.  All participants will receive hands-on-healing at no cost to them.  Please read on (clicking the tabs on the left for specific information) and contact us if you have questions and/or would like to participate.
