I doubt that they were cured totally by these methods. Perhaps in conjunction with traditional treatments. Sometimes they can do more harm than good. I'm a survivor thanks to traditional treatment.

No, I'm sorry. Nobody has ever been cured of cancer by herbs or homeopathy (and no honest homeopath will claim they have). It is possible that the people you've heard of went into remission following conventional treatment during or following which they also took herbs or some other alternative 'treatment', and they chose to credit the alternative rather than the proven treatment. Breast cancer can recur at any time after treatment, even years later, so it is incorrect to claim a 'cure'. Unfortunately where there's cancer there's an unscrupulous charlatan eager to make money out of the desperation of vulnerable people by selling them unproven, ineffective and sometimes dangerous alternative 'treatments'. Please bear in mind that in this context 'alternative' means unproven. Conventional cancer treatments have been rigourously tested and proven in double-blind clinical trials; so-called alternative treatments have not been tested and are unproven. Be wary about anecdotes and unsubstantiated testimonials claiming miraculous 'cures'; you have no way of knowing if the person ever had cancer in the first place, much less that they were cured. I know, because I've been there, that facing breast cancer surgery can be terrifying. But dying from untreated cancer is a much more terrifying prospect and is the almost certain outcome without surgery. If you are tempted by any alternative treatments, please do a search on http://www.quackwatch.org/ for the facts before investing money, hope and - most dangerous of all - time on something that will be ineffective and delay treatment.
