Integrative oncology is the study and treatment of cancer in adults by a combination of ‘Eastern’ and ‘Western’ methods. Cancer and related illnesses are always difficult, but their effects on the holistic wellbeing of the patient and their family are often under-addressed by purely western medical approaches.
At the Wellbeing Medical Group, we seek to use integrative medicine to support traditional chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery and immunotherapy. These are areas where Western medicine truly excels, but these treatments still have substantial limitations, drawbacks and side effects.
In addition to treating the primary patient, we seek to improve the wellbeing of the entire family. Family members can be devastated by a cancer diagnosis as well, and our holistic and psychological treatments seek to improve the mental and physical health of the entire family, improving the quality of life for all.
Many patients report substantial improvements in their quality of life, health and wellbeing after receiving High dose vitamin C and/or Mistletoe infusions. However, the ideal treatment regime can vary dramatically from person to person in accordance with their medical history.
Dr Kloppenburg Vieth has a great deal of medical experience and vast knowledge within the field of Complementary Cancer Care. She works to support the health and recovery of cancer patients every day and thrives to put her field of expertise to work for you and your family. Dr Kloppenburg Vieth and the rest of our integrated oncology team can recommend supplementary medicine, integrative therapies and other services all conveniently located at our signature Wellbeing Medical Clinic. Our approach aims to support western medicine efforts more effectively, prevent or minimise side effects and cellular damage, and to be responsive to the needs of the patient’s whole-body wellbeing. We look past the symptoms and address the cause.
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.

Yes. One of integrated oncology’s greatest strengths is dealing with the side effects chemotherapy and other western anti-cancer therapies produce. The goal of integrated oncology is to reduce the effects, severity and duration of your side effects, to speed your recovery time and to help you live your best life while undergoing treatment.
Ideally, both. Pre-chemotherapy treatments can focus on improving your immunity, reducing your stress and generally putting you in the best position to receive treatment. Post-chemo, integrated oncology treatments can focus on minimising side effects and speeding your recovery.
