Department of Oncology
Comprehensive complementary cancer care — reducing treatment side effects, restoring quality of life, and supporting the complete cancer journey through integrative medicine.
Integrative Oncology Care
Arogyadhama's oncology department provides comprehensive complementary care alongside conventional cancer treatment — improving quality of life, reducing treatment side effects, and supporting the whole patient through the cancer journey.
Cancer treatment — chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery — is powerful but often accompanied by debilitating side effects: severe fatigue, nausea, peripheral neuropathy, immune suppression, anxiety, and depression. Arogyadhama's integrative oncology approach addresses all these dimensions simultaneously.
Our approach does not replace conventional oncology. Instead, it powerfully complements it — using yoga therapy to reduce treatment-related fatigue, Ayurvedic immunomodulators to support the immune system, naturopathic detoxification protocols to assist the body's recovery, and psycho-oncology interventions to address the profound emotional impact of cancer.
Research from S-VYASA demonstrates significant improvements in quality of life, immune markers, and psychological wellbeing in cancer patients who integrate yoga therapy with conventional treatment.
Our Specialisations
Caring for the Whole Patient
In oncology, quality of life is as important as clinical outcomes. Our integrative protocol addresses every dimension of the cancer experience.
Gentle, cancer-adapted yoga reduces fatigue, improves sleep, and significantly lowers anxiety. MSRT and Yoga Nidra are specifically prescribed for chemo-related insomnia and anxiety.
Immunomodulatory herbs — Guduchi, Ashwagandha, Tulsi — support immune function during and after treatment. Panchakarma protocols assist post-treatment detoxification under physician supervision.
Anti-cancer diet rich in phytonutrients, antioxidants, and immune-supporting foods. Juice therapy and controlled fasting protocols support detoxification during recovery periods.
Group therapy sessions using Maitri Milan create powerful social support networks. Individual counselling addresses fear, existential distress, and family communication challenges.
"Our cancer patients do not just survive treatment — they reclaim their quality of life. Yoga gives them agency in their healing journey at a time when they can feel utterly powerless."
