Kurzbeschreibung So setzen Sie die Naturheilkunde in der Krebstherapie ein Was bringt der Einsatz naturheilkundlicher Verfahren in der Tumortherapie? Wo liegen die Chancen, Grenzen und Risiken? Therapieren Sie nach dem aktuellen Stand der Forschung und auf Basis gesicherter Erkenntnisse! Dieses Buch informiert Sie zielgerichtet über - die evidenzbasierten naturheilkundlichen Verfahren in der Krebsbehandlung - klinisch erprobte Verfahren der Behandlung von Nebenwirkungen der Krebstherapie Für eine optimale integrative Krebstherapie. Langbeschreibung Komplementärmedizin als Ergänzung zu einer Tumortherapie 70 Prozent der Krebspatienten nutzen Naturheilkunde, ohne das mit ihrem Onkologen zu besprechen. Dies ist ein risikoreiches Vorgehen, denn es kann eine Krebstherapie aus dem Gleichgewicht bringen. Am Beispiel von Brustkrebs belegt Integrative Onkologie, dass naturheilkundliche Behandlungen keine Alternative zur Krebstherapie sein sollten, sondern eine sinnvolle Ergänzung darstellen. Sie können die onkologische Behandlung unterstützen und einen Therapieabbruch (zum Beispiel bei der Einnahme von antihormonellen Substanzen) verhindern. Sie stärken die Patientinnen vom Moment der Diagnosestellung an und leisten einen Beitrag zur langfristigen gesundheitlichen Stabilisierung. Die Integrative Onkologieinformiert über eine Vielzahl evidenzbasierter naturheilkundlicher Verfahren in der Krebstherapie und zeigt klinisch erprobte Verfahren zur Behandlung von Nebenwirkungen der Krebstherapie.
