Welcome to Cancer Treatment Centers of America. This page will focus on three types of complementary alternative medicine therapies. At CTCA we use complementary alternative medicine to augment conventional medical therapies. We believe this integration on conventional and complementary alternative medicine provides patients with a more complete cancer treatment.
Also referred to as integrative medicine, complementary alternative medicine encompasses a broad range of healing philosophies, approaches and therapies. Complementary alternative medicine is what distinguishes us from other cancer hospitals. We use complementary alternative medicine to complement conventional therapies such as surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.

Complementary Alternative Medicine: Mind-Body Medicine
One form of complementary alternative medicine we use is mind-body medicine. Mind-body medicine is used at Cancer Treatment Centers of America as complementary alternative medicine that complements medical treatment. This form of complementary alternative medicine is used to bring patients and their families closer to all levels of their being. In concert with traditional medical therapies, this program offers a range of individual and group learning opportunities to bring the forces of mind and spirit to bear on healing at the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.
