Development of a Culturally Sensitive Holistic Integrative Oncology Practice
What is the art involved in developing a personalized seamless IO approach that marries traditional local therapies with other complementary therapies from other traditions? In this podcast, Judith Lacey interviews Prof Ben Arye exploring the overlap between integration of traditional Medicines of the regions we work in and the more well-established complementary therapies from other traditions such as traditional Chinese medicine, yoga ( ayurvedic medicine, and other fields). Can we integrate traditional practices, herbs, and foods into holistic integrative oncology care?
We also look at embedding research into clinical care and the developments of the global task force for the Society for Integrative Oncology and the vision of how we develop a global community in this rapidly growing and important field of cancer care.
