In addition, the National Institute of Health has released their consensus statement endorsing the use of acupuncture as being effective for the relief of side effects due to chemotherapy and radiation treatment as well as postoperative pain. It is worth noting here that patients will seek out Ms. Postolov for a variety of reasons. In many cases, she will get referrals from Western medical doctors who trust her expertise and knowledge and take comfort knowing that she has a Western medical background in Neurology. As with the best practitioners, many of our new patients are a result of referrals from friends and families who have been "regular" patients. Whatever path the patient takes in finding Ms. Postolov, the holistic approach will often be the answer to their prayers.
