In addition to medical therapies, Novant Health offers alternative holistic treatment approaches, such as acupuncture, massage and other nonmedical therapies. These techniques can help optimize your overall health and wellness, promote healing and alleviate the symptoms associated with some cancer treatments.

Mindfulness practices

At Novant Health, we offer complementary therapies designed to help minimize anxiety, depression, and pain during cancer treatment. Positive mental and emotional well-being can improve treatment outcomes through techniques such as yoga, meditation and stress management.

Nutrition counseling

Your oncology team includes experts who can provide reliable information about how to safely and effectively use vitamins, supplements or herbal remedies during treatment. They can help manage stress, support your nutritional needs during treatment and reduce side effects of cancer treatment, such as pain, nausea and fatigue.
