Complementary Cancer Therapies to Support Healing and Recovery

At Wellbeing Medical Group, we know that cancer affects every part of your life. It can change how you feel physically, emotionally, and mentally.
Our care focuses on supporting you through all of this. We offer complementary therapies that work alongside your regular cancer treatment to help you feel stronger, calmer, and more comfortable during recovery.
Our private cancer clinic in London also supports patients across the UK through home visits and online appointments. These therapies are used with standard medical care, not instead of it.

What Are Complementary Therapies?

Complementary therapies are treatments that work alongside your regular cancer care to help manage symptoms and improve wellbeing.

They are not used to replace medical treatment but to support your recovery.
These therapies can help you feel more comfortable during chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery and may also assist in your emotional and physical healing afterwards.
At Wellbeing Medical Group, we integrate complementary care with your main oncology plan. Our team works closely with your NHS or private oncology providers to ensure that every therapy is safe, appropriate, and aligned with your overall treatment goals.

It is important to understand the difference between these terms. Complementary therapies are used with standard cancer treatment, such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

Alternative therapies are used instead of standard medical care, and we do not offer or recommend these. Integrative care brings both medical and complementary approaches together in a coordinated plan.

Wellbeing Medical Group provides complementary and integrative care only. We never claim to cure cancer, but we do aim to help patients feel stronger, more comfortable, and better supported throughout their treatment journey.

Many people choose complementary therapies to help manage common side effects of cancer treatment. These may include fatigue, nausea, neuropathy, or anxiety.

Others find that complementary care helps them sleep better, improve their appetite, or feel more in control of their health.

Our patients often describe these therapies as giving them “breathing space” — a chance to relax, regain balance, and support their body’s natural healing process during a challenging time.

Safety is at the heart of everything we do. Every patient is carefully assessed before starting complementary therapy.

We check for possible drug and herb interactions, explain each treatment in detail, and make sure your NHS or private oncology team is kept informed.

All our therapies follow evidence-informed protocols, and treatments are delivered by qualified clinicians under medical oversight. Consent, documentation, and communication are handled with the same level of care as any medical procedure.

Our main clinic is based in London, where most patients receive in-person consultations and therapies. For those living outside the city, we also offer secure telemedicine reviews and, where suitable, home-based therapy. This approach allows us to provide the same level of care and guidance across the UK, ensuring patients always feel supported wherever they are.

Our Complementary Therapies

At Wellbeing Medical Group, we offer safe, supportive therapies that work with your main cancer treatment. Each therapy is chosen and supervised by our medical team to help you feel better, recover faster, and cope more comfortably. We only use evidence-informed methods and always communicate with your NHS or private oncology team to make sure everything fits safely with your ongoing care.

Intravenous Vitamin C (HDVC)

High-dose Vitamin C infusions are sometimes used to support energy, reduce fatigue, and ease side effects during or after cancer treatment. Before starting, our doctors check your medical history and run safety tests, including a G6PD blood test. People with certain kidney or blood conditions may not be suitable. Each session takes place in the clinic under supervision. We monitor your vital signs, review any new medicines, and adjust the schedule based on how you respond. We also share updates with your oncology team so that all parts of your care stay aligned.

Mistletoe Therapy (Viscum album)

Mistletoe extract is used in parts of Europe to support wellbeing and improve quality of life for people with cancer. It may help with energy levels, sleep, and mood. At WMG, we start with a small dose and gradually increase it under medical guidance. It can be given by injection under the skin or through an infusion. We coordinate with your main oncology team to make sure mistletoe therapy is timed safely around chemotherapy or radiotherapy. We also monitor for reactions such as mild fever or redness at the injection site and give you clear instructions on what to do if you notice changes.

Medical Ozone and Oxygenation Support

Ozone and oxygen-based therapies are used in supportive care settings to help improve general wellbeing and energy. At WMG, these are only offered after a full medical review and consent discussion. Every session follows strict safety and infection-control standards. We check your medical history, breathing, and blood results before starting. Our team monitors you during and after each session and shares updates with your NHS or private oncology provider when needed.

Acupuncture and Acupressure

Acupuncture and acupressure can help with symptoms such as nausea, hot flushes, anxiety, pain, and poor sleep.
Our therapists are trained in oncology care and adapt every session to your condition and treatment phase.
We avoid any areas that may be sensitive, such as near lines, treatment sites, or where there is swelling or risk of bleeding. All treatments are gentle, safe, and planned with your wider care team’s input.

Mind–Body Therapies

These therapies focus on calming your mind and body. We teach guided breathing, mindfulness, and relaxation exercises that you can use at home or before treatments. Many patients find these techniques help them sleep better and feel more in control during difficult moments. Sessions are simple and supportive, and our team helps you build small daily habits that reduce stress and improve mood.

Gentle Manual Therapies

Soft-touch therapies, such as oncology massage or reflexology-style hand and foot treatments, can help release tension and promote relaxation. Our therapists work gently, avoiding any areas affected b treatment, swelling, or wounds. We do not provide massage if you have active infection, recent surgery, or blood clot risk. Every session is adapted to your comfort, and your wellbeing is checked throughout.

Nutrition and Lifestyle Support

Nutrition support helps you eat well, maintain strength, and manage side effects such as poor appetite or taste changes. Our team offers practical meal ideas and hydration tips that fit your treatment and lifestyle. We also guide you on pacing your energy, gentle movement, and rest. Regular follow-ups help us adjust your plan as your treatment and recovery progress.

How We Personalise Your Plan

At Wellbeing Medical Group, every patient receives an individual care plan designed around their medical treatment, symptoms, and goals.
We take time to understand your needs, review your medical background, and work closely with your NHS or private oncology team.
Our process is clear, safe, and supportive from the first call to each review stage.

Intro Call or Online Enquiry
Your journey begins with a short phone call or online enquiry. We listen to your goals, discuss what you hope to achieve, and check whether our therapies are suitable. You can share any recent medical records, treatment summaries, or test results to help us prepare for your consultation.
Integrative Oncology Consultation
Next, you meet with one of our clinicians for a detailed consultation. We review your full history, current treatment plan, and any symptoms you want to address. We also go through your medications and supplements to avoid interactions and set clear expectations for your care.
Safety Screening and Baseline Tests
Safety always comes first. Before starting any therapy, we complete screening checks and arrange baseline blood tests if needed. For example, patients considering High-Dose Vitamin C need a G6PD test. We also look for any red flags, such as infection or unstable medical conditions, to ensure each therapy is safe for you.
Shared Goals of Care
Together, we set measurable goals that reflect what matters most to you, such as reducing pain, improving sleep, easing fatigue, managing anxiety, or enhancing quality of life. These shared goals guide your treatment plan and give us clear outcomes to review later.
Therapy Selection and Scheduling
Once goals are agreed, your clinician recommends the most suitable therapies and sets a schedule that fits your main treatment plan. We coordinate around your chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy appointments and adjust dose or frequency to match your tolerance and progress.
Consent and Education
You receive a written plan that outlines your therapies, timing, possible side effects, and home-care instructions. We explain the benefits and limits of each treatment and give you advice on safety, self-care, and communication between appointments.
First Session
Your first session takes place in our London clinic or, when suitable, at home. We monitor your comfort, check your vitals if required, and guide you through what to expect. After each visit, we share an after-care checklist so you can track any changes and know when to contact us.
Track Progress
We regularly check your progress through short follow-ups, symptom logs, and patient-reported outcomes. You can record changes in pain, fatigue, sleep, or mood, which helps us understand what is working best for you.
Adjust and Combine
Your care plan is flexible. We may add, pause, or space out therapies based on your feedback and clinical response. If a treatment is not helping, we adjust or replace it to ensure you always receive effective support.
Coordinate and Communicate
We keep your wider care team informed with written updates, letters to your GP or NHS oncology unit, and shared results when needed. This open communication helps ensure your complementary care remains fully aligned with your main treatment and overall health plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Integrated oncology is a revolutionary new way to approach the treatment of cancer. It seeks to combine the best of Western medicine with the best of alternative medicine. Most importantly, it applies alternative medicines and treatments in a way which does not limit the effectiveness of western treatments.
