Complementary Therapies & Cancer Treatment

This episode of Dr. Dean Edell's "Medical Breakthroughs" (featured on HealthCentral.com) looks at treating the side effects of traditional cancer treatment with natural therapies/complementary treatments.

Clips of Timothy Birdsall, ND, Vice President of Integrative Medicine for Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA), and Dr. Edgar Staren, Senior Vice President for Clinical Affairs and Chief Medical Officer at CTCA, are included in this medical news story.

Birdsall says, "Oftentimes patients look to natural therapies as a way to regain some part of control."

Dr. Staren notes, "Complementary therapies allow the body to utilize many of its own mechanisms, some of which may be deficient because of the cancer."

Real Patients. Real Stories. Real Hope.

Do these videos feature real cancer patients?

Yes, the videos in this section feature real CTCA survivors with real stories to tell. These are not actors. They are cancer patients who came to CTCA and emerged as survivors. These stories are not scripted. They are personal accounts of people who found hope, and a voice, at CTCA. This is what they have to say, in their own words...

Why are some, not all, cancer types listed?

At CTCA, we treat individuals with a variety of cancer types. However, all of our survivors are not on film. If you don't see a survivor with the cancer type you're looking for, it only means we do not have a video at this time.

Keep in mind, we are continuously adding videos to this section. If you don't see the one you're looking for today, visit us again, or let us know how we can improve.
