Cancer-related Disorders

Kristi holds a specialty in Oncology Acupuncture, certified through Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. She is trained to treat cancer patients and survivors safely and effectively, and to communicate with and work alongside conventional healthcare providers.

Cancer and its treatments are depleting. Traditional Chinese Medicine, practiced by a clinician with the specialized training this work requires, provides a restorative layer of support within a patient’s overall care plan. Treatment is always coordinated with the oncology team and adapted to the patient’s current phase of treatment.

Conditions Treated

What Acupuncture and FSM Address

Kristi is experienced in treating the side effects of conventional cancer care. The most common concerns she addresses include:

  • Pain and neuropathy
  • Nausea, vomiting, and gastrointestinal symptoms from chemotherapy
  • Fatigue
  • Constipation
  • Depression and anxiety
  • Insomnia
  • Hot flashes from hormone therapy
  • Chemo-induced neuropathy

Today, nearly 1 in 3 adults in America will receive a cancer diagnosis during their lifetime, and over 18 million individuals are considered cancer survivors. Kristi welcomes the opportunity to be part of an integrative care team supporting patients through this experience.

FSM and cancer care: Frequency Specific Microcurrent is used to address the specific side effects of oncology treatment, particularly neuropathy, pain, fatigue, constipation, and insomnia — at the cellular and nervous system level. Treatment is always adapted to the patient’s current treatment phase and coordinated with the oncology team. Note: Chinese herbal medicine is not used for cancer patients due to potential interactions with treatment protocols.

Post-treatment and Survivorship

For patients who have completed treatment and are in recovery, Traditional Chinese Medicine and FSM support the restoration of energy, nervous system regulation, and quality of life. The focus shifts from managing side effects to rebuilding the patient’s overall health and resilience.
