<p>Dr. Barb MacDonald is a licensed naturopathic doctor, acupuncturist, and Classical Chinese herbalist practicing in Rockport, Maine. Her whole-person approach to supporting the healing of breast cancer patients has been featured in The Townsend Letter for Doctors Aug/Sep 2018 and in her book &#8211; The Breast Cancer Companion: A Complementary Care Manual. She helps those whose goals are to prevent and treat breast cancer using natural medicine as well as supporting those on their journey through conventional treatments by reducing side effects, creating synergism, and helping prevent recurrence. Her primary goal, however, is to help patients find their authentic healing journey that leads to transformation on all levels (mental, emotional, physical, and energetic). She uses a variety of tools from Naturopathic and Chinese medicine such as food as medicine, Western and Chinese herbal therapies, therapeutic use of nutritional supplementation after laboratory testing, and homeopathy. In the office, she combines acupuncture, CranioSacral Therapy, SomatoEmotional Release, Qi Gong, and guided meditations that feature the Chinese 5 Elements to help patients find resonance and harmony within after identifying limiting beliefs, emotional holdings, and energetic blockages.</p>
