Quality of life is an essential component in cancer care. Conventional cancer treatments, and cancer itself, can be strenuous on your body. You may find it difficult to deal with side effects like nausea, pain, or fatigue.
The Naturopathic Medicine Department at CTCA at Eastern Regional Medical Center (Eastern) is here to help provide relief from these symptoms. The naturopathic team will support you as you undergo cancer treatments so you can fight cancer and maintain a good quality of life.
According to Director of Naturopathic Medicine at Eastern Michelle Qaqundah, ND, FABNO: “It is very unique to offer naturopathic medicine in a hospital setting. It is important to work with a trained medical professional to ensure that patients are receiving the best natural therapies for their individual presentation and are avoiding supplements that can be damaging to them or interfere with their medications and/or cancer therapies. Naturopathic practitioners are perfectly trained to provide this service and are part of the care team at CTCA.”
