Naturopathy and complementary therapy-methods

In addition to conventional cancer therapy (e.g. chemotherapy, hormone therapy, pain therapy) and the various kinds of hyperthermia in our hospital complementary ways of treatment from biological cancer therapy, naturopathy, psychology, sports therapy, and nutritional therapy are used. The methods we apply to strengthen the body defenses, particularly the immune system, and the patient’s general well-being include: 

• All methods of classical naturopathy 
• Biological cancer therapy (unspecific immune stimulation by mistletoe lectines,  standardized thymus peptides, enzyme therapy, orthomolecular therapy, oxygen multi-step therapy, special methods of autohemotherapy, ozonetherapy) 
• Active endogenous fever therapy 
• Detoxifying methods (intestinal purgation/sanitation, colon hydrotherapy, antioxidants, therapeutic fasting)
• Nutritional therapy, special dietetics 
• Treatments with herbal extracts 
• Physiotherapy, breathing therapy and sports therapy 
• Comprehensive balneo-physical therapy including lymphdrainage and massage, massage of foot reflex zones. 
• Neural therapy 
• Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM e. g. acupuncture, soft laser acupunture, acupressure) 
• Homeopathy (classical homeopathy and homeopathy according to Ramakrishnan's method) 
• Psychooncological therapy methods including art therapy and meditation 

 

This complementary methods of treatment have proved to be of particular value:

• to activate the immune system and other defense mechanisms of the body thus furthering the faculties of self-healing
