Cancer Care |
Dr. Lemmo utilizes an array of comprehensive treatment concepts that have been shown to be helpful for patients with cancer. Treatments are designed to help people at various stages of their treatment program along with standard chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Moreover, treatments are also tailored for patients who have completed standard treatments and who wish to "boost" their overall health. Naturopathic treatments are quite effective for the troublesome symptoms of "fatigue and depression", which commonly follow cancer treatments. Since a persons immune system is a powerful treatment tool against cancer, treatments are geared to enhance immune system function and to stimulate it strong enough to fight against cancer cells. The term commonly given for this treatment concept is called "immunotherapy". In addition, it is equally important to address stress, emotional & spiritual factors. Research has demonstrated a more weakened immune system response when these issues have been allowed to persist for extended periods of time. Overall treatments are designed to enhance current treatments, fight cancer cells, and support the body, mind, and spirit. Please read below for a sample of treatment tools used by Dr. Lemmo.
