A patient's perspective

“They didn't just treat my cancer.
They helped me find myself again.”

— Aarti S., breast cancer survivor, 2024

Evidence-informed

Therapies backed by peer-reviewed research, never wishful thinking.

Works with your oncologist

Plans co-created with your treating team. We complement, never replace.

Whole-person care

Body, mind, nutrition, movement, and meaning — together, not in silos.

Tailored to you

No one-size protocols. Every plan starts from your unique situation.

What is integrative oncology?

A way of caring that meets you where you are.

Integrative oncology brings together the best of conventional cancer treatment and evidence-based complementary therapies — nutrition, mind-body practices, movement, supplements, acupuncture, and psychological support — into one coordinated plan, built around the person living with cancer.

What it is

  • A complement to chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, and immunotherapy
  • Coordinated with your oncology team — every step
  • Tailored to the type, stage, and rhythm of your treatment
  • Focused on both clinical outcomes and quality of life
  • Grounded in published research and clinical experience

What it isn't

  • A replacement for conventional cancer treatment
  • "Alternative medicine" that asks you to choose one path
  • A promise of cure — we don't make those
  • Generic protocols handed out without listening to you
  • Therapies without evidence of safety and benefit
Our six pillars

Six pillars, one coordinated plan.

Every pillar is dialed up or down based on your diagnosis, treatment phase, lab work, and what matters most to you right now.

Nutrition

Anti-inflammatory eating tailored to your treatment phase, side effects, and lab markers — supporting strength and recovery.

Mind-body

Meditation, breathwork, gentle yoga, and counseling to ease anxiety, sleep better, and process the emotional weight of cancer.

Targeted supplements

Evidence-informed supplements to support immunity, manage side effects, and protect organs — vetted for interactions with your treatment.

Movement & rehab

Physical therapy and graded exercise plans to fight fatigue, preserve muscle, and restore function during and after treatment.

Symptom relief

Acupuncture, massage, and oncology-trained bodywork for nausea, pain, neuropathy, and chemo brain — grounded in clinical evidence.

Meaning & purpose

Spiritual care, expressive arts, and group support — because healing is also about the questions cancer asks of a life.

Why families choose us

The kind of care we'd want for our own family.

Our promise

We will never replace
your oncologist.

We will sit beside them. We will help you understand your treatment, hold you through its hardest days, and rebuild what cancer takes — strength, sleep, appetite, joy. And we will be honest about what we know, what we don't, and what the evidence says.

Patient stories

What healing looks like, in the words of those we've walked beside.

“Going through chemo, I lost my appetite, my sleep, my sense of self. The team rebuilt all three — gently, week by week. They didn't just treat my cancer. They helped me find myself again.”

Aarti S.
42 · breast cancer survivor
“The nutrition plan they built for me cut my fatigue in half. My oncologist actually keeps a copy of it now and shares it with other patients. That's how good it was.”

“We were drowning. They didn't just take care of dad — they took care of all of us. I stopped feeling alone. That, more than anything, is what I'll remember.”

Common questions

The questions families ask us most.

Do I have to stop my chemo or radiation to work with you?

Absolutely not. We are the opposite of alternative medicine. We work alongside conventional treatment — and we will always tell you when conventional medicine is the right answer for your situation.

Will my oncologist be okay with this?

Yes — and we make it easy. Every plan we write is a one-page summary your oncologist can read in minutes, with the evidence cited. Most oncologists welcome the support; we've worked with hundreds of treating teams across India.

Is integrative oncology a kind of alternative medicine?

No. Integrative oncology is a recognized clinical discipline practiced at major cancer centers worldwide (MSKCC, Mayo, MD Anderson, Cleveland Clinic). It combines evidence-based complementary therapies with conventional treatment.

How much does it cost?

Our initial 90-minute consultation is free for new patients. Beyond that, plans are quoted transparently based on the services your situation calls for. We never push services you don't need.

Can you help if I'm not the patient — if I'm a caregiver?

Yes. Cancer doesn't live in one body. We offer dedicated sessions for partners, parents, and primary caregivers — the people holding everything together while someone they love is sick.

Do you offer telehealth?

Yes. After the initial in-person consultation, most follow-ups can be done over video or phone. We support patients across India this way.
