Robyn's case history is one of a number of similar scenarios that I have encountered over my years in practice and there is little doubt in my mind regarding the efficacy of Acupuncture treatment for palliative care. I wish all the best with your career and hope that your study validates my observations and you are able to assist many patients pass away with less discomfort, physically and emotionally. I would greatly appreciate it if you could let me know of your findings at the conclusion of your study. All the best in practice and life, Alan Many thanks for your positive feedback Jessica.

As a newly licensed practitioner and current graduate student at Tufts School of Medicine, I have just been given the green light to conduct a small research study using acupuncture to treat palliative care patients at a Hospital in Maine. The use of acupuncture to relieve symptoms in patients with life-limiting illness is very effective and needs to be integrated with standard palliative care.
