Thank you for your interest in the Cancer Integrative Medicine Program at Rush University Medical Center, located in Chicago, Illinois.
At the Cancer Integrative Medicine Program at Rush, we believe in the importance of healing the whole person in mind, body, and spirit. The mind-body connection is especially important during cancer treatment, to help patients regain a sense of well-being and to promote healing. Complementary therapies can enhance traditional cancer treatments by reducing the mental and physical stresses that often accompany them.
Our program is committed to providing patients with a variety of complementary, integrative therapies that address their unique needs, during all stages of cancer care from diagnosis to treatment and beyond. Any patient receiving cancer treatment at Rush, as well as their family members, are eligible to participate in our program.
The following are just some of the benefits of complementary therapies:
- Relieve stress
- Ease muscle tension
- Reduce anxiety
- Decrease nausea
- Reduce pain
- Increase energy
If you're interested in taking an active role in your healing, and you would like to incorporate integrative medicine into your care, please contact us today. We have a multidisciplinary team of expert practitioners who are compassionate and committed to providing the very best in patient-centered care.
