Defining Integrative Oncology
Dr. med. Jana Pahole
Integrative Oncology offers a comprehensive and holistic approach to cancer patient care. It requires fine-tuning of available and scietifically approved methods for each individual based on their preferences and abilities. Orchestrating mainstream treatments and complementary methods can sometimes be challenging, considering obstacles in implementing them into standard oncology care, not only in terms of cost but also in terms of knowledge. Palliative care is also considered an important part of the disease trajectory when curing transitions into healing.
