Introduction to Safe Practice of Acupuncture in Cancer Care - with Beverley de Valois [1 day CPD]

💙 We have an amazing introduction to the safe practice of acupuncture in cancer care CPD day with Beverley de Valois, coming up in the Autumn.
💙 She will be exploring cancer treatments & side effects, plus guidelines for acupuncturists clarifying contraindications & red flags.
💙 Working with people undergoing treatment for cancer is often seen as daunting by acupuncturists. In addition, there are many stories about what to do or not do in this field.
💙 This 1-day session (option to do a 3 day bundle) introduces the subject of cancer and provides a fundamental understanding of cancer and its treatments, and of some of the side effects of these treatments.
💙 A key focus is on the guidelines for the safe practice of acupuncture for people undergoing treatment for cancer – this clarifies contraindications, potential adverse events, and amber / red flags that may arise. How to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team is also addressed.
💙 This course aims to introduce the essentials of cancer and its treatments to acupuncturists with little or no experience of this area of healthcare, or working with people living with and beyond cancer.
