Seeking Treatment for Cancer is Just the Beginning
When you learn you have cancer, it’s guaranteed to shift your priorities. Your health becomes #1. Understanding why this happened and how you can recover becomes a primary focus. Integrative support cares for the whole you and seeks to optimize your outcomes and continued health through a very challenging time.
Honest Conversation
Let’s keep it real. The best results come from acknowledging the situation, what you can change, and what you can’t. Knowing where to focus your energy can make a huge difference.
Personal Care
Every individual is a symphony of mind, body, and spirit. Our integrative approach dives deeper than symptoms to address deeper imbalances. By integrating Ayurvedic Science with Modern Medicine, we ensure a comprehensive care strategy that respects and nurtures every aspect of your being.
The Whole You
Your whole life circumstances are important. Learn to find grace in this process by using this moment as an opportunity to improve your overall health, deepen your relationships, and learn how to reduce stress can leave you feeling in charge of your health, and your life.
Moving Beyond Recovery to Embrace Fullness of Life
Staying healthy is your #1 goal. But while undergoing cancer treatment the extra challenges you face can make life difficult.
Risk of Emotional and Mental Health Imbalance: Solely focusing on physical recovery can overlook the emotional and spiritual aspects of healing, leading to an imbalance that impacts overall well-being.
Surgery and Chemotherapy are Hard on the Body: You’re gonna feel like you got hit by a truck. You could grit your teeth and bear it, but what if you didn’t have to? What if you could remove some severity of these symptoms by giving the body the support it needs?
Impact on Family & Friends: A battle with cancer can strain relationships emotionally and practically. How you deal with that determines whether you grow closer together, or experience distance in relationships.
A Sense of Overwhelm: While you’re dealing with cancer treatment, the rest of your life doesn’t go on pause. How you feel on a given day can affect your desire and ability to be productive.
Unrealized Potential for Renewed Vitality: Stopping at recovery can prevent you from experiencing the renewed energy and vitality that can occur. Ayurvedic Science can create greater health, more love and joy, and give you a greater sense of purpose, bringing about long term wellbeing.
Recurring Health Issues: Understanding the imbalances that caused the condition in the first place is truly root cause work. If you don’t get to the root of it, it’s easy to fall back into the same patterns which caused imbalance in your body. Having a resurgence after you’ve worked so hard to heal can be one of the hardest things to handle.
Experience the Benefits of Integrative Ayurvedic Care
Receiving diet, nutrition, and lifestyle support alongside your cancer treatment has many benefits that can change how you feel and how you show up in life:
A Balanced Approach To Mental and Emotional Wellbeing: Get help on managing your whole situation, and maintaining a positive mental attitude while you do it. As you handle your circumstances more gracefully, notice as your body takes the cue and increases your rate of healing and recovery.
Are You The Person Smiling in the Waiting Room? We often hear from our patients that they are the only ones who don’t look defeated sitting in the waiting room for chemotherapy. This is a big win that comes from knowing how to support the body with proper nutrients and self care.
Relationships Are Important: Look at this time as an opportunity to appreciate the people that are important in your life. And remember to receive the care that is available to you. Giving and receiving care is another way to signal to your nervous system that everything is ok.
Untangle Yourself and Reclaim Space: Creating balance in your life might be as simple as setting boundaries, and realizing you don’t need to rescue anyone. Learning to let other people come into full ownership of their own situations can help you reclaim your capacity for self care.
Discover Your Untapped Vitality: As together we unlock the insights into cause and consequence, we will find ways to bring out the body’s latent potential. As you start to feel the upwards trend you’re on, you’ll begin to look forward to the interactions of the day and feel a sense of encouragement.
Continue Your Upward Spiral: Once you understand the causes that allowed cancer to form within the body, you’ll find there are all kinds of ways to take care of the body and prevent those conditions from arising. Not only will you feel better, but you’ll have greater confidence that your health is here to stay.
