Acupuncture for Oncology Patients

Subsidised cost PLUS health fund rebates

Welcome to Therapy Works – your integrated health clinic at Newport, on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. We offer an Oncology Acupuncture service that helps offset the side effects of chemotherapy.

Having worked with cancer patients as part of a Mater Hospital oncology initiative, allowing oncology patients to access acupuncture treatments, we are well placed to help those going through cancer treatment. We’ve also subsidised the cost of the treatment. This is because our goal is to make the service accessible and available to as many people as possible.

Chemotherapy Support Initiative (as featured on SBS)

This Chemotherapy Support Initiative is a program for cancer patients, run at operational costs.

After losing six friends to cancer, Natalie wanted to see more patients get access to proactive chemotherapy support to help them cope with their treatment and improve their quality of life both during and after chemo.

“Cancer is expensive and best quality care shouldn’t be based on whether you can afford it,” she tells SBS.

“What we’d like to do is support patients through their chemotherapy regime to help them track from one chemo treatment to the next without having to either drop out of their prescribed chemo treatment plan or to reduce the dosage of the medication prescribed by the oncologist.

“We’re not treating cancer, we’re treating patients going through chemotherapy as acupuncture does offset the side effects of chemotherapy.” – Dr. Natalie Dalton (TCM)
