Navigating Neuropathy: Tools for Patients & Caregivers

June 25, 2025 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm CDT
Free

Cancer-related neuropathy can be one of the most difficult and long-lasting side effects of treatment. During this month’s Wellness Wednesday, we’ll explore the causes of chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, how it affects patients, and what treatment and supportive care options are available to help manage symptoms.

Whether you are newly diagnosed, currently in treatment, or supporting a loved one, this program will offer insights and tools to help ease nerve-related discomfort and improve quality of life.

Join medical experts and an experienced acupuncturist as they share both clinical and complementary strategies—including medication, acupuncture, diet, and lifestyle approaches.

Key Takeaways:

– What chemotherapy-induced neuropathy is—and why it happens
– Medical and non-medical treatments to manage symptoms
– The role of lifestyle changes like diet and exercise in managing pain
– How acupuncture may support nerve healing and comfort
– Tips for caregivers and how to support loved ones through it
– This session will include a moderated Q&A so participants can ask questions and gain deeper understanding in real time.

Presented in partnership with Rolfe Pancreatic Cancer Foundation, Cancer Wellness Center, and The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy.
