It is essential to address the physical and emotional symptoms associated with cancer and its treatment; alternative therapies are often a great tool in managing these symptoms. Hospital spas and alternative therapy centers provide cancer patients with complimentary services to help manage pain and nausea as well as other side effects of treatment. The following is a list of hospital spas and alternative therapy centers in the U.S. and Canada that offer cancer patients services like aromatherapy, acupuncture, image therapy, hypnotherapy, massage therapy, and Reiki at a reduced cost or free of charge.
