Cancer Coaching
One is rarely prepared for cancer. In fact most people discover that they have cancer in the same way that I did - in the urgent care centre of a local hospital. Once that diagnosis is conveyed a host of emotions arise and a number of decisions need to be made. A cancer coach is your partner through this process. It is the goal of the cancer coach to maximize therapeutic outcomes of cancer treatment and also to promote prevention of recurrence.
The cancer coach addresses the main factors that a cancer patient may face throughout their journey. For example, nutritional, environmental, lifestyle, emotional and spiritual aspects all require attention in order to maximize immunity and mitochondrial function in order to maximize treatment results.
Solidly based in independent research and documentation, a cancer coach will incorporate up-to-date information on treatment options as the basis of the person's program. Many of these treatment options are not suggested through oncologists perhaps due to time constraints or lack of awareness. This is where an expanded team of medical professionals can assist you through the process with greater support and assistance for you and your family.
As an educated health care professional and with my personal experience with cancer, I am committed to walking beside you in your journey to better health by creating an individually tailored treatment plan. Disease has been an unexpected gift in my life. Allow me the honour of helping you to unwrap yours to explore the gifts awaiting you.
