Cancer Rehabilitation
Thailand Offers Long Term Support for Mind, Body, and Spirit
Integrative cancer rehabilitation programs combine conventional methods with natural complementary therapies to provide a holistic path to recovery.
Regaining and maintaining physiological and psychological well being during and after chemotherapy cycles can be hard, but ImagineHealth has never lost hope. That is why we help cancer patients around the world try to experience more positive physical outcomes and regain a positive state of mind.
In other words, we are here to facilitate your ability to take control of your recovery. And thanks to our partnerships with specialists in innovative, integrative cancer care in Thailand, we can make accessible various recovery programs that are different from what you are probably accustomed to.
Much of the diagnosis and treatment of cancer in Thailand is rooted in functional medicine, which is commonly referred to as ‘root-cause’ medicine because it focuses on understanding a tumor’s origins and potential behavior; and rooted in integrative oncology, which combines conventional treatments like radiation and chemotherapy with ‘alternative’ treatments like acupuncture, aromatherapy, and deep-tissue massage to elevate mind and spirit.
What Is Functional Medicine?
At the heart of Functional Medicine is a caring approach that treats patients as individuals, not empirical statistics. It looks beyond symptoms to uncover and address underlying causes in a way that engages both patient and practitioner in a therapeutic partnership. This allows for a deep exploration of how your genetic makeup and lifestyle impact your health, and allows for individualized treatments which often have higher success rates for long-term health outcomes.
What Is Integrative Oncology?
At its core, Integrative Oncology is about holistic care. It focuses on more than just pharmaceutical interventions and considers patients’ emotional and psychological needs. Complementing drug interventions with mind-body therapies in pristine settings like a tropical beach in Thailand can help cancer patients feel like they are active participants in their recovery, as opposed to being passive passengers who receive injections while lying in a hospital bed.
The following therapies are some of the main pillars of Functional Medicine.
Detoxification is a way to reset your body chemistry so that your physical systems can perform more properly. Once a healthy, all-natural ‘detox’ program has been completed, you will have something approximating a ‘clean slate’ on which you and your physician can conduct therapies that protect you from illness and disease long term.
Functional Medicine can help you reduce chronic inflammation and restore balance to your body’s natural defense mechanisms. Even though inflammation is a way for your body to remove harmful stimuli like bacteria, when it stays too long it can work against you and cause insomnia, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and a host of gastrointestinal disorders.
Mounting research reveals the intricate connection between an unbalanced microbiome and chronic illnesses. These ‘diseases of the gut’ include inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Type 2 diabetes, liver disease, heart disease, and even certain forms of cancer – all from digestive tract inflammation! Don’t let a troubled gut undermine your quality of life.
You may have heard recently that ‘Mitochondria’ are the powerhouse of your cells. This is true, in that they are responsible for producing much of your body’s fuel. And while they are quite resilient, they can become overworked by a process called ‘oxidative stress’ which is another type of system imbalance that can be reversed by Functional Medicine.
We should be able to live our everyday lives in harmony with what our biology predicts, but many of us struggle to find a balance. This manifests in chronic inflammation, extreme fatigue, and poor mood regulation – all of which can be brought under control with the right diagnostic testing and a functional approach to taking control of your health.
So much can be said about the causes of anxiety and depression, but one thing that is often overlooked is the correlation between physical health and mental health. If you are suffering from symptoms of depression and you recognize that you do not take care of your body in an age-appropriate manner, then an integrative Functional Medicine program in Thailand could be just what the doctor ordered! Imagine receiving relaxing therapies derived from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Traditional Thai Medicine, acupuncture, massage, meditation, a proper wake/exercise/sleep regimen, and a detoxifying nutrition program for 10-14 days, accompanied by the gentle murmur of the sea in a quiet, pristine, beachside retreat in Thailand. ImagineHealth can facilitate all that for you, and more.

DISCLAIMERS
If you are considering Regenerative Medicine, talk about all the benefits and risks with your healthcare provider.
Research for the different applications of Regenerative Medicine is promising and rapidly growing. Unfortunately, Regenerative Medicine is considered investigational and has not been officially approved by the Thai FDA for most uses, just like in most other countries around the world. However, Thai physicians can prescribe and administer Regenerative Medicine if they believe it’s in the patient’s best interest and the treatment is safe. But, lack of approval means that Regenerative Medicine may not be covered by insurance.
