Aromatherapy is one of the complementary therapies integrated at the Léon Bérard Center.
Since July 2021, they have implemented aromatic protocols to treat: odor management, anxiety and/or insomnia management and nausea management.
Dr. Mastroianni, a pulmonary oncologist and head of complementary therapies, is interested in developing aromatherapy support for smoking and cannabis cessation for newly diagnosed patients with metastatic bronchial cancer.
The grant will fund an initial observational study to evaluate the value of aromatherapy in smoking cessation for 25 patients.
