Some examples of alternative healing methods include acupuncture, herbal remedies, massage therapy, and meditation. This book focuses more on herbal medicine, while some people may find these methods very helpful in managing their symptoms, it's important to note that they have not been scientifically proven to cure cancer or other serious illnesses.
