Our naturopathic oncology program features cutting edge therapies that target the hallmarks of cancer while holistically supporting the individual.
Attacking cancer with chemotherapy or radiation will kill a great number of the fast-growing cancer cells, but not all. There will always be a certain percentage that will survive. Focusing only on the immediate gratification of tumor shrinkage can leave you handicapped in fighting the long-term battle. The strategy cannot just focus on the cancer, it needs to take into account the individual in which it develops.
Cancer is a multifactorial, complex, intelligent, and adaptive disease.
“Losing my father to colon cancer has made this very personal to me! He was just another number at the cancer center fading away while receiving the traditional standard of care. I believe when you are fighting for your life, you deserve the best and most effective medical and integrative cancer care, even if it doesn’t fit within the scope of traditional care. It is my mission to offer cancer patients cutting edge, integrative oncology care at my premier integrative health center here in Idaho, The Karlfeldt Center.”
Dr. Michael Karlfeldt has been practicing naturopathy for over 30 years. His passion to promote Natural Health publicly has led Dr. Michael Karlfeldt to be a sought after lecturer, writer, and educator.
Each cancer patient is unique and every cancer type must be treated specifically. A naturopathic doctor will evaluate the individual terrain of the patient that may be contributing to the cancer growth, such as: toxic emotions and belief systems, chemical exposures, chronic infections, nutritional deficiencies, microbiome integrity, sensitivities, and organ weaknesses. In order for the body to defeat cancer, the body must be supported at every level and with every method necessary to reverse cancer’s multi-pronged assault on the body. All this must be done while maintaining the maximum possible well-being of the patient.
In order to participate in our intensive program, you must meet certain criteria that enable us to create your personally tailored treatment plan specific to your condition.
