We’re here to support you at any starting point in your cancer journey
Integrative oncology combines complementary therapies with standard medical cancer treatments to boost quality of life and provide support to individuals at any stage of their cancer journey. Nutritionists and Naturopaths do not ‘treat’ cancer or tumours, that is the role of your Medical Oncology Team. Integrative oncology specialist Naturopaths are experts on the ‘terrain’ or ‘environment’, which includes your diet, your lifestyle and the nutritional supplements you may need. We partner with many other clinics to offer our patients from across Europe a variety of complementary therapies, services and access to complementary technologies. Some of these may include, Mistletoe Therapy, Intravenous Vitamin C, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Off-label Drugs prescribing pharmacist services and Ketamine-assisted Psychotherapy amongst others.
The demand for integrative oncology is growing as people become increasingly aware of the role of metabolic flexibility in their health and wellbeing. Our role is to help your body achieve metabolic flexibility and to work towards creating an environment that is hostile to the cancering process.
