Led by Danielle Brown, a qualified naturopath who specialises in integrative cancer care, our mission is to support you by addressing all aspects of cancer treatment in a comprehensive and empowering manner. We are committed to helping you navigate your cancer diagnosis with the most effective, evidence-based therapies, complementing standard medical interventions, and enhancing overall well-being.
Integrative Cancer Care at Revital Health
Integrative cancer care combines evidence-based complementary therapies with conventional cancer treatments (such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation) to provide a holistic approach to healing. Our philosophy is centred on the understanding that cancer care is not one-size-fits-all. Each individual needs to be cared for in a personalised way, respecting their unique healing process.
The goal of integrative cancer care is not to replace conventional cancer treatments but to optimise their effectiveness and help mitigate side effects. Our team works in close collaboration with your oncologists and other medical professionals to ensure your treatment plan is as effective and comprehensive as possible.
Your Naturopath: Danielle Brown
Danielle Brown, our lead integrative cancer specialist, brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to her cancer care consultations. With advanced training in integrative cancer treatment, functional medicine, nutrition, and holistic therapies, Danielle offers a wide range of personalised treatment options designed to enhance the body’s natural healing processes while supporting conventional therapies.
Danielle works with you to create a tailored plan that incorporates nutrition, supplementation, stress management techniques, and lifestyle changes – all of are targeted to help you feel better physically and emotionally during treatment.
Our Approach Focuses on:
Nutrition and Dietary Support
Evidence-based dietary interventions have been shown to improve treatment outcomes and quality of life for cancer patients. Proper nutrition helps maintain strength, prevent malnutrition, and reduce treatment side effects. Our team will guide you in choosing cancer-fighting foods while addressing any specific dietary needs.
Mind-Body Medicine
Cancer can be a physically and emotionally draining experience. Techniques such as meditation, gentle movement, guided imagery, and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) can significantly reduce stress, improve emotional well-being, and even enhance immune function. Our integrative cancer care protocols offer individualised support for mental health, stress reduction, and emotional balance throughout your cancer treatment.
Adjunctive Supportive Therapies
Conventional cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation can introduce toxins into the body. Evidence-based naturopathic medicine can be utilised to support the an individual’s presenting concerns while reducing the side effects of treatments. These therapies can also promote healing, reduce pain, and improve overall quality of life.
Herbal and Nutritional Supplementation
We provide evidence-based herbal remedies and supplements that may support treatment and recovery. Studies suggest that certain herbs, like turmeric (Curcuma longa) and green tea extract (Camellia sinensis), may have anti-cancer properties. Under Danielle’s guidance, you will receive personalised recommendations that align with your treatment protocols.
Physical Rehabilitation and Support
Integrative cancer care also focuses on supporting your body to engage in physical rehabilitation. Exercise, physical therapy, and lymphatic support therapies can improve circulation, prevent muscle wasting, and help manage pain. Studies have shown that moderate physical activity can improve fatigue, decrease anxiety, and improve overall outcomes for cancer patients.
Pain Management and Symptom Relief
Managing pain and treatment-related symptoms is crucial to overall well-being. We offer a variety of naturopathic treatments that are all supported by clinical research to help alleviate pain and discomfort without relying solely on medications.
