Terrain based Cancer Care  

Being handed a cancer diagnosis can be one of the most challenging turning points in someone’s lifetime. Navigating the Medical Oncology process can be daunting. I’d like to offer you a new way, one where we embrace when life asks you this impossible question: “What is important to you in your one and precious life?”. This is a space to re-empower yourself with an approach that heals the soil and you have the support you deserve.

We ask where is the room for the human in cancer care?

The mission of Vessel Wellness is to support those who are facing cancer and want a different approach to healing to step wholly and fully into themselves and their healing, acknowledging all of the complexities that may come with a diagnosis. I offer a terrain-based approach that acknowledges the whole person, mind body, and spirit. Through Naturopathic Medicine & customized care, I empower you to reverse dysfunction, rebuild resilience, and ultimately liberate your body from the root of disease.

Cancer Doula and cutting edge naturopathic Medicine

Mainstream Oncology approaches cancer like a weed: cut it out and poison it away. But what if there were a different way? A way that guides the body back to its own intelligence? This is the Metabolic Approach to Cancer and by utilizing terrain remediation theory we get to address the root of cancer; emotionally, physically, spiritually etc.

WHO DO I HELP?

I help individuals and families navigate the cancer process whether they have received a recent diagnosis and want to implement best practices to give themselves the best chance at healing, or have been in remission and want to prevent a relapse. The terrain-based approach also shines at preventative care for those who know they are at high risk and want to establish a foundation of health on all levels.

  • We start with a thorough intake and assessment of which areas of your terrain may need the most attention: environmental toxins, genes, metabolism, hormones etc. From there a through lab assessment will help to guide the process with additional monitoring. Test, don’t guess. There are a million alternative therapies for cancer out there but we need to know which ones are specific to you, your terrain and your cancer.

  • We don’t “treat” cancer, we treat the terrain and soil that generated those cancer cells and guide them back to healthy function. Therapies can include metabolic restoration through anti-cancer dietary plans, immune system therapies such as mistletoe, addressing any environmental toxicities and inflammation drivers of cancer, guidance on IV therapies, and much more.

  • Though I highly recommend having a supportive Oncologist on board, this can look as many different ways as there are individuals. My approach can come alongside to support those going through chemo, radiation, and standard care to reduce side effects or can support individuals in rebuilding post treatments and preventing recurrence. My approach can also support the body’s natural healing process with customized plans that get at the root of your cancer.
