Abstract

The utilization of alternative therapies in nursing practice for pain management and symptom relief has gained significant attention in recent years. This review article aims to explore the various alternative therapies that nurses can incorporate into their practice to help alleviate pain and manage symptoms in patients. The effectiveness of these therapies, such as acupuncture, aromatherapy, massage therapy, mindfulness meditation, yoga, and herbal remedies, will be critically examined to provide insights into their potential benefits and limitations. Additionally, the role of nurses in promoting the integration of alternative therapies alongside conventional treatments will be discussed. By synthesizing existing literature and research findings, this review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of alternative therapies in nursing practice and their implications for pain management and symptom relief.
