Mind-Body Medicine for Lymphoma
At Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA), we treat the whole person, not just the cancer. While we use every available resource to treat you physically, we understand that there are other factors involved, such as your psychological well-being, which may impact your healing journey.
Our Mind-Body Medicine Program (also called Psychoneuroimmunology, or PNI) helps people with lymphoma and their family members explore and experience what is unique to them at all levels of their being—body, mind and spirit. Used alongside traditional medical therapies for lymphoma, mind-body medicine strives to leverage the healing power of the mind to help aid in the fight against lymphoma.
Mind-Body Medicine Techniques
Lymphoma treatment can be physically demanding and can cause side effects that make it difficult to cope. The CTCA Mind-Body Medicine Program can help you cope with the physical and emotional issues that arise during your lymphoma treatment. Using a variety of techniques, mind-body medicine therapists at CTCA can help you learn to direct your natural energies towards fighting lymphoma and achieving optimum health.
The innovative Mind-Body Medicine Program at CTCA offers lymphoma patients and their families the following therapies:
- Individual, couple and family counseling
- Stress management
- Relaxation and guided imagery training
- Support groups for you and your family
- Educational resources
