Seattle Integrative Oncology

Specialties

At Seattle Integrative Oncology we provide comprehensive, patient-​centered naturopathic cancer care that is seamlessly integrated with every aspect of your oncology treatment. Our goal is to combine time-​tested and scientifically based complementary medicine therapies alongside conventional cancer treatment methods such as surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormonal and biological agents.

Based on each patient’s individual needs and desires, our approach is targeted to improve general health and optimize wellness; strengthen and support the numerous organ systems; prevent and manage adverse effects or symptoms experienced during treatment; and incorporate a customized nutritional, physical activity and dietary supplement plan based on demonstrated anticancer effects, as well as safe use.

Additionally, we utilize laboratory testing to assess each individual’s underlying ‘biological terrain’ and address numerous factors that may contribute to tumor cell development and growth.
