Immuno-Oncology
Cancer immunotherapy, also known as immuno-oncology, is a form of cancer treatment that uses the power of the body's own immune system to prevent, control, and eliminate cancer.
What is it?
An integrative approach that combines conventional and alternative medicine can offer a more holistic and comprehensive treatment plan for patients, especially those dealing with complex conditions like cancer. Conventional medicine often focuses on treating the disease itself, while alternative medicine approaches may address the whole person, including their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
By integrating both approaches, our patients can potentially benefit from a wider range of treatment options, tailored to their individual needs and preferences. For example, while conventional treatments like chemotherapy or radiation therapy target cancer cells directly, alternative therapies such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, or mind-body practices like yoga or meditation can help manage symptoms, alleviate side effects, and improve overall quality of life.
However, it's crucial that any integrative approach is guided by qualified healthcare professionals who are knowledgeable about both conventional and alternative treatments. This ensures that treatments are safe, evidence-based, and effectively coordinated to optimise patient outcomes.
Our goal for your personalised treatment plan:
-
To take an active role in your healthcare journey, providing you with a more comprehensive and personalised treatment plan that addresses not just the physical aspects of your condition, but also your emotional and spiritual well-being.
-
To restore and maintains innate immunity.
-
Increasing the ability to eliminate viruses, bacteria, parasites, and other foreign particles from the body, reducing toxic load.
-
Which will effectively locate, attack and eliminate cancer cells known as cell apoptosis (cell death).
*Please note that this service will require you to commit to a minimum 3-months treatment plan, for best outcome.

What we offer
-
High Dose IV Vitamin C Infusion
Mounting evidence suggests that intravenous administration of high doses of vitamin C could be a powerful anti-cancer treatment. Early clinical trials have confirmed its safety and effectiveness in eliminating tumor cells of various types. The treatment uses injections of ascorbate, which increases hydrogen peroxide levels in cancer cells and kills them. IV Vitamin C is also important for maintaining proper immune cell function. Although vitamin C is commonly known as an antioxidant, it can also act as a pro-oxidant, similar to chemotherapy.
-
Tumour Treating Field (TTF) Electrical Cancer Therapy
Tumour Treating Field therapy, also known as Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEFT) is a safe treatment that emits low-intensity electrical fields to suppress cancer-cell replication. Its effectiveness is similar to chemotherapy, but without the known side-effects of destroying normal cells. TTF therapy is also less prone to drug resistance and accumulation of toxicity, making it a viable long-term treatment option. Additionally, it can be used alongside conventional treatments such as chemotherapy.
