Integrative oncology combines evidence-based complementary therapies with conventional cancer treatments to support patients throughout their cancer journey. Practices such as acupuncture, yoga, mind-body techniques, and guided imagery are used alongside standard treatments like chemotherapy and radiation to manage symptoms like pain, fatigue, nausea, and anxiety. The goal is to enhance the body's natural healing processes and improve the patient's overall well-being. Integrative oncology not only helps reduce side effects of treatment but also promotes relaxation, stress reduction, and a greater sense of inner balance. However, it’s essential for patients to work closely with their oncology team to ensure that complementary therapies are safe and do not interfere with their standard treatment protocols. This holistic approach aims to treat the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—throughout their cancer care journey.
