What is Integrative Oncology?
Integrative Oncology care is defined as comprehensive support for each stage of a cancer patient’s experience (from diagnosis to treatment decisions and restoration of immune function and health after completion of standard treatments). Patients can receive care from licensed naturopathic physicians, nutritionists and acupuncturists, all of whom have advanced oncology training.
Treatment options include mind/body medicine, acupuncture, botanical medicine and nutritional support. In Integrative Oncology care doctors communicate with each participant's medical and radiation oncologists to ensure truly integrated care. The goal is to improve not just the quality of life of people living with cancer, but also to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence.
