 | NEW APPROACHES TO CANCER |
New Approaches to Cancer aims to promote the benefits of holistic and
self-help methods of healing for cancer patients. A referral system and
information service operate, directing people with cancer to their nearest
sources of help. Holistic therapy is the treatment of a person at all levels of their being -
physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. The methods of treatment are those
which are considered best by the patient and their doctor through a process of
informed consent. Adopting the holistic approach does not mean using
alternative therapies alone. Those seeking help from the charity can write sending a large SAE to the
address above. The person needing help should give brief details of the cancer,
its location within the body and the date that it first became known. It is a
help to know life details such as age, family circumstances and possible likely
causes (e.g. smoking, bereavements, loss of job etc). In return the charity
provides details of the nearest local support groups and advice on useful
reading material, based on an extensive library.
