Additional Care. Evidenced by the themes that arose during analysis, patients’ medical needs for physical symptom management were well met, and participants were generally satisfied with their care. As stated, the most commonly referenced additional care desires were chiropractic treatment and acupuncture, home health care, and experimental therapies. Chiropractics and acupuncture are categorized as complimentary and alternative medicine (CAM), or non-mainstream interventions used in addition to (complimentary) or in place of (alternative) standard medical treatment. Studies suggest that just over 50% of patients with ALS utilize CAM interventions, citing expectations of being cured (10%), improving their condition (30%), or slowing disease progression (50%) [4, 5]. Though chiropractic treatments and acupuncture are not currently discussed in therapeutic guidelines for the care of patients with ALS, they are undergoing evidence- based review to determine their appropriate roles in supportive care for patients with cancer and are offered as components of comprehensive treatment plans at some cancer centers [6, 7]. Acupuncture has been demonstrated to provide relief from cancer-related pain and chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting, but its role in symptom alleviation for ALS is not yet well understood [8]. Some studies have demonstrated putative benefits relating to reductions in pain and spasticity, while others have suggested improvements in motor function in both animal and human studies [9-11]. However, methodological errors and dubious experimental design afflict these publications, and independent evidentiary validation remains crucial before any evidence-based recommendations can be made regarding a therapeutic role for acupuncture in ALS [12]. Chiropractic care is utilized by cancer patients to help alleviate joint and muscle stiffness throughout the body [13]. Currently no evidence exists for the use of chiropractic treatment for patients with ALS, but there is evidence for its efficacy in treating chronic spinal pain leading some to recommend its use for symptom relief in multiple sclerosis [14]. It is possible that a similar role may exist for symptom management in ALS. The relationship between CAM therapies and traditional western biomedical intervention has been the subject of both scrutiny and change in recent years. Academic medicine has seemingly abandoned the oppositional stance—in which providers were professionally obligated to oppose utilization of CA...
