Ease treatment side effects, restore your strength,
and feel more like yourself through every stage of care.

A cancer diagnosis changes everything, and you don't have to simply endure the side effects of treatment. At Díaz Acupuncture & Integrative Health, we provide gentle, evidence-informed supportive care that works alongside your oncology team to ease the physical and emotional burden of treatment and help your body recover.

Oncology Support We Provide

We offer specialized, compassionate care to help manage:

• Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea & Vomiting

• Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN)

• Cancer-Related Fatigue

• Hot Flashes & Joint Pain from Hormone Therapy

• Dry Mouth from Radiation Therapy

• Treatment-Related Anxiety, Insomnia & Pain

Common Treatment Side Effects | Symptoms

• Digestive Distress | Nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and taste changes that make it hard to eat and keep up your strength.

• Nerve & Joint Pain | Tingling, burning, or numbness in the hands and feet, along with aching joints from hormone-blocking therapies.

• Fatigue, Stress & Sleep | Exhaustion that rest doesn't fix, "chemo brain", hot flashes, anxiety, and restless nights.

Why Treatment Side Effects Happen

Chemotherapy targets fast-growing cells, including the healthy cells lining your digestive tract and bone marrow, which leads to nausea and fatigue.

Some medications also irritate the peripheral nerves, while the stress of diagnosis and treatment keeps your nervous system in "fight-or-flight" mode, disrupting sleep, digestion, and mood.

Supporting You Before, During & After Treatment

Your needs change through each stage of your journey, and so does your care. Before treatment, we help calm anxiety and improve sleep. During treatment, we focus on easing nausea, fatigue, and discomfort. After treatment, we help you recover from lingering neuropathy and fatigue and rebuild your strength.

How Advanced Acupuncture Supports your Recovery

• Eases Nausea & Vomiting | Acupuncture is one of the most well-researched integrative therapies for chemotherapy-related nausea.

• Relieves Nerve & Joint Pain | Improves circulation and calms overactive pain signals from neuropathy and hormone therapy.

• Restores Energy & Calm | Shifts your body into "rest-and-digest" mode, helping reduce fatigue, anxiety, and hot flashes and improve sleep.

• Supports Comfort After Radiation | May help stimulate saliva production and ease dry mouth.

Looking Deeper: Our Integrative Approach

While advanced acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are always our first lines of care, recovery from cancer treatment often calls for a broader view of your health. When appropriate, we pair your treatments with a structured, four-step protocol:

• Step 1: Safety Review & Care Coordination | We review your diagnosis, treatment plan, and medications before recommending anything further. Every recommendation is coordinated with your oncology team.

• Step 2: Comprehensive Blood Work | We order targeted panels through Quest Diagnostics to check nutrients linked to fatigue and nerve health, such as Vitamin D, B12, and iron. We also review thyroid, metabolic, and inflammation markers that may be slowing your recovery.

• Step 3: Targeted Vitamin & Mineral Therapy | Because many supplements and herbs can interfere with chemotherapy and radiation, we never recommend them during active treatment without your oncologist's approval. When the timing is right, we build a personalized protocol to replenish depleted nutrients and restore your energy.

• Step 4: The 3-Masters Nutrition System | Our proprietary longevity framework combines Eastern dietary wisdom, Lifestyle Medicine, and Blue Zones principles. It helps you rebuild strength, support digestion, and reduce inflammation, as a sustainable way of living rather than a restrictive diet.

Your Path to Vitality: What to Expect

Many patients feel relief from nausea, anxiety, and sleep issues within the first few sessions, while neuropathy and long-term fatigue improve gradually with consistent care over several months. Your plan is built around your treatment schedule, energy, and goals.

Our care complements, never replaces, your oncology treatment.
