Cancer Treatment
Looking for more Cancer Treatment Options?
Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with cancer? Do you feel that your options are limited? Our goal at Sunridge Medical is to offer patients diagnosed with cancer additional treatment options to help them in their fight.

The treatment strategy at Sunridge Medical is to provide patients with cancer the most comprehensive treatment program possible by integrating advanced, naturopathic medicine and research-based naturopathic cancer treatments with conventional therapies. We feel that this provides our patients with the “best of both worlds” and results in the highest chances of reaching their health goals.

Our holistic alternative medicine protocols are individualized to each patient, case and condition. The treatment protocols can be administered 1) concurrently while the patient receives conventional treatments; 2) following the completion of conventional therapies; 3) or on their own if conventional therapy is no longer an option.

Our Therapeutic Aim:
1) Attack the cancer. Our first step is to stop the tumors from growing. Once the growth has stopped and the tumors have stabilized, we focus of causing regression (shrinking) of the tumors to finally reach the stage where the tumors disappear completely.

2) Restore the body’s natural cancer-fighting mechanisms. This is accomplished by normalizing the regulatory mechanisms responsible for cellular metabolism, defense, repair and detoxification.

3) Attain remission and maintain remission.

Cancers That We Treat
We offer comprehensive, advanced research-based treatment options for patients with many different types of cancer. Below are some of the most common cancers that we see. Click on the links below for more specific information.

• Bladder Cancer • Bone Cancer • Brain Cancer • Breast Cancer
• Cervical Cancer • Colon Cancer • Esophageal Cancer • Kidney Cancer
• Leukemia • Liver Cancer • Lung Cancer • Lymphoma
• Melanoma • Ovarian Cancer • Pancreatic Cancer • Prostate Cancer
• Sarcomas • Skin Cancer • Stomach Cancer • Testicular Cancer

Cancer treatment at Sunridge Medical complements conventional cancer treatments. Conventional treatments are only focused on the tumor and its symptoms. At Sunridge Medical, we focus on addressing not only the tumor and its symptoms, but also the underlying causes and conditions that have contributed to the development of the cancer in first place.

The Problem with Conventional Cancer Treatment
The problem with the standard approach to cancer care is that it focuses almost completely on the cancer or tumor and not enough attention is placed on enhancing the body’s natural cancer-fighting abilities and focusing on the underlying disease conditions that led to the development of the cancer. In fact, when using only conventional medical approaches, numerous side-effects that damage the immune system, and most other physiological functions of the body often occur. Side-effects of chemotherapy, for example, have been responsible for conditions such as chronic fatigue, nerve pain, pneumonia and even death.

We believe that the best treatment for cancer for one patient is not necessarily the best treatment for another patient, even if they both have the same type of cancer. Cancer care has to be individualized. We use traditional as well as alternative, naturopathic cancer treatments to ensure that our patients have the best chance at beating their cancer.

We have found that patients diagnosed with cancer have better outcomes when they receive our adjunctive, supportive cancer therapies. In fact, our treatments increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy against the cancer cells, while at the same time decreasing the unwanted side effects associated with chemotherapy and radiation. While receiving our treatments, many of our patients are able to continue receiving their chemotherapy treatments and at the same time maintain a healthy quality of life without many of the common symptoms associated with chemotherapy such as fatigue, nausea, loss of hair, pain, and numbness or tingling in their hands and feet. The difference is clear.

If you have been diagnosed with an advanced stage cancer (stage III or IV), unfortunately treatment with chemotherapy as the only treatment has been shown to be palliative at best. (This was published in the December 2004 issue of the British Journal of Clinical Oncology which reported that for most adult malignancies, chemotherapy, in general, was minimally effective in increasing 5-year survival.) This is even more reason to consider alternative holistic medicine and naturopathic medicine as supportive care.
