A Functional Medicine approach to Breast Cancer is a better way to heal
Functional Medicine takes the focus away from the tumor and puts it on improving your health.
Not only does this lead to a better outcome, but it makes traditional treatments more effective.
Functional medicine addresses the physical, emotional, mental, social, spiritual and environmental influences on your health. Most people utilizing a functional medicine approach find themselves in the best health of their lives.
RealHealthMD creates a health plan for you to engage your mind, body, and spirit during your breast cancer journey.
Nearly three-quarters of patients with breast cancer (73%) reported using at least one type of complementary medicine after their cancer diagnosis
The importance of functional medicine
while being treated for metastatic breast cancer
Traditional treatment for metastatic breast cancer treatment is solely focused on palliative chemotherapy.
At RHMD, we take a functional approach to metastatic breast cancer:
- We look for all the things that may be interfering with health.
- We look for those things that could be causing inflammation and therefore driving tumor growth.
- We work to restore balance and allow for healing to happen.
- We work with you to develop physical, mental, and spiritual practices that complement standard medical care, to help you to heal and flourish.
Functional medical care can reduce the side effects of traditional treatment, allowing you to heal.
Understand Your Options
for Breast Cancer Treatment
Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone had both a treatment plan and a health plan?
Despite having the same diagnosis, no two breast cancers are the same. Therefore, no two treatment plans should be the same.
At RHMD, we help to identify your risk factors, your source of inflammation, and hormone imbalance that led to your diagnosis and we devise a health plan just for you.
We also help you to understand how to optimize your environment so that you can move forward in promotion of your health.
And that, my friend, is exactly what you need.
The perfect blend of nature and nurture
Using our holistic focus, we consider genetics, life stressors, social and family support, spirituality, mindfulness and stress adaptation/reduction techniques, diet quality and supplements, exercise specifics and frequency, sleep patterns, and then create a plan especially for you.
We teach you how to nurture your nature.
