Ace your certification exam & confidently manage cancer-related pain, fatigue, and anxiety

Are you a healthcare professional working in oncology who feels unprepared when patients ask about herbs, supplements, acupuncture, or yoga? Are you studying for a board or certification exam in integrative or oncology medicine and need to master the evidence base for complementary therapies?

This comprehensive course is your definitive guide to the Society for Integrative Oncology (SIO) Clinical Practice Guidelines. The SIO, in partnership with the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), publishes the most rigorous, evidence-based recommendations for integrating complementary therapies into conventional cancer care. This course transforms those dense guidelines into a practical, accessible, and high-yield learning experience.

Through a massive question bank of over 600 board-style MCQs, each with detailed, referenced explanations, you will achieve mastery of this critical subject. We move beyond simple memorization to ensure you can apply this knowledge in complex clinical scenarios, focusing on safety, efficacy, and whole-person care.

What you will learn:

• The SIO Evidence-Based Framework: Understand and apply the SIO's grading system (Grade A, B, C, D, H, I) to critically evaluate integrative therapies.

• Symptom Management Mastery: Develop evidence-based plans for the most common cancer-related symptoms, including pain (neuropathic, musculoskeletal), fatigue, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and chemotherapy-induced nausea & vomiting (CINV).

• Unparalleled Safety Training: Master the most critical aspect of integrative oncology. Identify high-risk drug-herb interactions (e.g., St. John's Wort, Ginseng), contraindications for manual therapies, and the risks of antioxidant use with chemotherapy and radiation.

• Specific Modality Expertise: Dive deep into the evidence for acupuncture, massage, yoga, meditation, hypnosis, nutrition, and key botanical supplements like American Ginseng, Ginger, and Turmeric.
