Integrative Oncology
Integrative oncology puts patients front and center. It draws from scientific evidence and uses mind-body practices, natural products and lifestyle changes alongside your regular cancer treatments.
Optimize Your Health and Quality of Life
The central focus of integrative oncology is to optimize your health, quality of life and clinical outcomes across the many stages of cancer care — and to support you in being an active participant in your cancer care.
Integrative oncology services make patients happier with their care and can improve sleep and mood, reduce fatigue, relieve pain, and manage both short- and long-term symptoms associated with cancer treatment.
What to Expect from Integrative Care
Our integrative oncology specialist can assist you with:
- Lifestyle modifications to optimize survivorship.
- Support for symptom management related to your anti-cancer therapy.
- Improvement of post-operative or post-chemotherapy nausea and vomiting.
- Consultations on supplements and herbs to avoid drug-herb interactions.
- Enhancement of mood, quality of sleep and overall quality of life.
- Reduction of cancer-related fatigue.
- Prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
- Minimization of the toxicity of anti-cancer treatments to organs such as the liver and kidneys.
These services aim to reduce side effects, improve recovery and bolster your body before, during and after your cancer treatments.
