Free care for cancer patients





Dr. Sheron Norling and the Mind Body Spirit Center in Westlake Village are offering holistic healing services free of charge to individuals with cancer on Oct. 19.

Norling’s goal is to provide a day of healing and she named Pat’s Day in honor of her sisterinlaw who had breast cancer. The available services include acupuncture, energy healing, biofeedback sessions, Reiki, hypnosis, chiropractic care, nutrition consultations and massage.

Research shows that over 80 percent of cancer patients also seek complementary alternative medicine in addition to their conventional care of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Studies also show the effectiveness of healing using these therapies. For example massage has shown to increase the immune system, acupuncture reduces pain, fatigue and nausea and nutrition is critical in maintaining the health of person with cancer.

Pat’s Day will be catered providing healthy food throughout the day. Classes in cancer and nutrition, cancer and wellness, and yoga with gentle exercise will be included.

As a founding member of the Wellness Community, Norling said she wants to offer this day of free care as a way of honoring those with cancer and thanking people with cancer, such as Pat, who taught her so much.
