INVESTIGATING THE IMPACT OF INTEGRATED AWARENESS® WITH BREAST CANCER PARTICIPANTS

Abstract

Because hreast cancer is a leading cause of death, it has received increased attention by researchers during the past two decades. More recent work has focused on quality-of-life questions as well as complimentary approaches to working with patients. One such approach, Integrated Awareness®, was investigated with a small group of randomly assigned hreast cancer patients who also continued their regular medical treatment. Using several self-report instruments and an energy field instrument, differences were found between the treatment and control groups. Support was found from both the self-report instruments and the energy field assessment for the hypotheses and provides some evidence for further investigations hoth of this approach and related issues with hreast cancer.
