Background: Cancer Related Fatigue (CRF) is recognized as the most prevalent and distressing symptom affecting cancer patients and survivors.

Results from these studies are inconsistent and difficulties interpreting the literature make it impossible to draw accurate conclusions regarding its effectiveness.
