Abstract

The demand for complementary cancer care (CCC) is increasing. Cancer is a systemic process and involves psychological factors. A study published in the Lancet purporting to show that CCC had a negative effect has been discredited. The role of CCC and the modalities employed, including homœopathy, acupuncture, Iscador, relaxation, diet and massage, are discussed.

* Based on the Richard Hughes Memorial Lecture, 14 May 1992
