They are used to help alleviate stress, reduce pain and anxiety, manage symptoms, and promote a feeling of well-being. Integrative therapies include nutrition/diet counseling and practices, exercise programs, physical therapy, massage, acupuncture, yoga and psycho-therapy.
All our therapists are highly trained and certified. They understand that the process of cancer treatment includes promoting health, sustaining strength, and encouraging the mind and body.
When a new patient contacts or is referred to the Sari Center, we match the person with a care coach who is a member of our staff. This signals the start of our relationship with, and commitment to, the patient and the patient’s family to be with them during and after cancer treatment. The care coach helps identify complementary therapies that will be of benefit to the patient, and coordinates these services. The care coach also maintains an ongoing and open communication with the treating physician about the overall treatment plan and all complementary activities. In this way, the patient receives coordinated and caring attention from a team.
