Integrative Oncology

individually customized

Integrative oncology Integrative cancer therapy combines the latest scientific standards with naturopathic, psychological and physiotherapeutic therapeutic approaches. It stands for the growing together of disease-fighting and health-promoting methods, of scientific and empirical medicine.


From the patient's point of view, the right to information and participation play a major role. A fear-free and stress-free atmosphere during treatment promotes a positive attitude and thus a longer life expectancy. The health-promoting (salutogenic) influences include diet, lifestyle, the environment, hygiene, friends, family, sleep, health care, stress reduction, sport and the psyche.

DIFFERENCES TO ALTERNATIVE / COMPLEMENTARY ONCOLOGY

Once upon a time, scientific and alternative medicine were incompatible. With consequences. Because some cancer patients broke off a therapy rich in side effects and sought other healing methods without the knowledge of the treating doctor. This alternative oncology later became complementary oncology. Conventional medicine accepted alternative approaches from naturopathy, homeopathy, acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, Qigong, yoga, breathing therapy, meditation, spiritual healing and shamanistic methods. However, she regarded them as complementary and assigned them the subordinate role of accompanying treatment. Only integrative oncology cancels the distinction between different valued methods.
