Christine Wilson, cancer survivor, shares her experiences from the Abramson Cancer Center’s 2012- Focus on Brain Cancer Conference. In this blog, she discusses integrative medicine, and its role in those who have brain cancer.

The final panel of the day began with a series of yoga stretches that demonstrated how breathing and movement can relax even a roomful of people who have been listening to a long day of complicated, difficult information. The Integrative Medicine Program at Penn Medicine led by Jun Mao, MD, MSCE, offers a full range of medical and complementary approaches that treat the whole person and promote wellness for every person at every stage of the cancer journey.

These include:

• Nutrition
• Physical therapy and rehabilitation
• Acupuncture
• Yoga
• Reiki
• Psychosocial counseling and support groups
• Mindfulness training

"Integrative medicine is about achieving wellness. It takes a diverse group of people to help each of our patients achieve that overall wellbeing." Jun Mao
