NUTRITION. SUPPLEMENTATION. COUNseL.
Integrative therapy<br />
Integrative Medicine is a philosophy based on treating patients by focusing<br />
on the whole person and using both conventional and complementary<br />
therapies in a multi-disciplinary approach. There is open communication<br />
between practitioners and the various modalities and traditions.<br />
This form of treatment has grown so extensively that today it is utilised by<br />
80% of cancer patients. This growth has been driven by patients wanting to<br />
overcome cancer with greater success while reducing negative side effects<br />
and improving overall health.<br />
Our Integrative oncology program<br />
We offer access to a professional team of medical and health professionals.<br />
Our team works collaboratively but you will be allocated one contact<br />
person to assist you. We work alongside oncologists in a complementary<br />
and supportive fashion.<br />
Our areas of expertise<br />
NUTRITION<br />
Guiding you on what to eat<br />
to support your treatment and<br />
good health.<br />
VITAMINS & MINERALS<br />
Check for and correct<br />
underlying deficiencies affecting<br />
your health.<br />
PHYTO-THERAPY<br />
Recommendations on<br />
herbal and plant-based<br />
medicines.<br />
COUNseL<br />
We are able to answer questions<br />
you may have, provide guidance<br />
and emotional support.
How does it work?<br />
Step 1<br />
You may be referred onto our program via your caregiver<br />
or doctor in which case you will receive a referral e-mail.<br />
Alternatively, enroll with us by connecting via our website<br />
www.integrativeoncology.co.za<br />
Step 2<br />
Follow a short registration process during which we’ll record your<br />
details for professional use. This is followed by an appointment,<br />
either in person, online or telephonically – at your convenience.<br />
Step 3<br />
A professional member of our team will be assigned to you.<br />
This will be your key contact person during your treatment and<br />
journey. They will provide advice and support for your specific<br />
needs. This will address various aspects of your treatment<br />
outside of conventional oncology. It is then your responsibility to<br />
follow this advice and remain in contact. You will have access<br />
to the programme as much as required and at times convenient<br />
to you and your team member.<br />
INTEGRATIVE ONCOLOGY PARTNERS<br />
Only medically qualified professionals<br />
administer support via the program.<br />
We do not replace the care of an oncologist<br />
but act as a support team.<br />
There is no direct cost for consultation.<br />
Advice and support is given freely, within reason.
