The presentation of the book "Reflexoterapia, infancia y cáncer" by Bibiana Carrasco commemorates 20 years of this therapy for pediatric cancer patients. The event will feature Erika Cosenza, translator, proofreader, and editor.
In 2004, Dr. Bibiana Carrasco, a pediatric surgeon and reflexologist, began treatment with the first child on the onco-hematology ward at Sant Joan de Déu hospital. At that time, the technique generated uncertainty and fears about potential spread or uncontrolled effects in cancer patients.
Reflexology for children and adolescents undergoing cancer treatment has overcome initial reservations and has become established as a complementary therapy, demonstrating its quality and safety in the pediatric field.
