Cancer Recovery: A Holistic Approach with the Carer Cancer Program

Cancer treatment, while life-saving, often comes with challenging side effects that impact a patient’s physical, emotional, and mental well-being.  The Carer Cancer Program provides a comprehensive and all-encompassing healing strategy that addresses these issues by emphasizing symptom management and general rehabilitation.

Dr. Rajeev Vijayakumar, Consultant Medical Oncologist, emphasizes the importance of this program, stating:

“The Carer program has actually come to me like a breeze—it’s like a breath of fresh air. This has been a long-awaited segment, which is an unmet need.”

The program integrates yoga, healing coaching, counseling, diet, and nutrition—all delivered at the comfort of the patient’s home. As Dr. Vijayakumar explains, “This is something that a patient would heal best in the place that he likes best—that is his home.”

Why Holistic Healing Matters

Cancer treatment can be exhausting, but the Carer Program ensures patients receive personalized care that goes beyond medical therapy.

“This holistic concept was very eminent and common in the West, where people lived life to the fullest despite their shortcomings. In our country, we give so much importance to the disease that we forget to live. The Carer Program teaches you how to live the best.”

By combining traditional medical care with mind-body wellness, the program helps patients:

  • Manage treatment side effects like fatigue, pain, and nausea.
  • Improve mental health through counseling and emotional support.
  • Enhance physical strength with yoga and tailored exercises.

Optimize nutrition for better recovery.

By bridging the gap between medical care and holistic therapy, the Carer Cancer Program gives patients the tools they need to combat cancer while preserving their quality of life. This project is a groundbreaking breakthrough in cancer care, as Dr. Vijayakumar emphasizes, one that guarantees patients not only survive but thrive. This program provides hope, healing, and a revitalized sense of well-being to cancer patients—all at home.
