Study Summary
Randomized clinical study of two CAM therapies, 1) Reiki and 2) Relaxation Response Therapy with Cognitive Restructuring counseling (RRT with CR), compared to an education-only control arm in patients about to begin an eight-week course of external beam radiotherapy (EBRx) for prostate cancer. Generally, we would like to examine the feasibility of studying Reiki and RRT with CR in patients with prostate cancer, and to obtain preliminary results on the effectiveness of these treatments compared to controls. Specific objectives: 1. Determine the proportion of eligible patients who agree to participate in the study 2. Measure compliance with CAM therapy interventions 3. Measure compliance with physiologic and psychological outcome measurement assessments 4. Assess differences between experimental and control groups on measures on depression, anxiety, quality of life, salivary cortisol levels and an immunomarkers
Primary Outcome
QOL testing performed at four time points
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Reiki & Relaxation Response Therapy with Cognitive Restructuring
