Israel Establishes Alternative Cancer
Institute
We are proud to announce the opening of
the first and foremost institute in Israel combining conventional
and natural medicine, for the treatment of patients with malignant
diseases.
A malignant illness is not a word synonymous
with death. Cancer may be treated and even cured with an extensive
treatment program integrating conventional and complementary
medicine (also known as alternative medicine or "non-conventional
medicine"). A patient needs great mental and physical
strength to battle cancer and conquer it. The chance for recovery
does exist, but it demands a strong will and involvement on
the part of the patient, in addition to the devotion and determination
of a dedicated medical team.
For many years, non-conventional medicine
was subject to criticism and did not gain the respect or confidence
of either physicians or the public. Methods known collectively
as "alternative medicine," which embrace non-toxic,
holistic or natural approaches, were sometimes promoted by
untrained and unqualified practitioners, causing serious damage
to patients and to the practice in general.
MediLife, the interdisciplinary institute
for the treatment of malignant diseases, was established at
the Herzliya Medical Centers to treat cancer patients, while
implementing a novel and modern concept of combining Israel's
best practitioners, both in conventional oncology and in complementary
medicine. All patients are treated under continuous medical
supervision, on a level comparable with the most advanced
centers in the world.
The complex subject of treating cancer
patients requires the appropriate professional knowledge as
well as sensitivity and cooperation between the "natural"
therapist and the patient, the family and the medical staff.
Alternative medicine is not aimed at replacing chemical treatment
(chemotherapy) and/or radiation. The treatments are complementary,
aimed at relieving the suffering of the patient, while personally
relating to each individual and his or her strong desire to
improve the quality of life.
Most people turn to natural medicine as
an auxiliary or additional channel to conventional treatment.
However, one should always remember that the two practices
should be integrated and not substituted for one another.
Natural therapies and non-toxic treatments
are a moderating factor, helping to reinforce the body's immune
system and to fight off further development of cancerous cells.
The treatments have been tested in medical centers in Europe,
the United States and other leading international centers,
and found to be highly effective and helpful. They constitute
an integral part of the treatment system of cancer patients
striving to improve their quality of life.
Cancer patients need a relaxed and comfortable
atmosphere to regain mind and body harmony. In addition to
natural and well-balanced foods and exercise, patients require
the supportive environment that will assist them in coping
with the disease. MediLife is an institute that precisely
answers these needs. The multi-professional staff of MediLife
is comprised of doctors, nurses, dietitians, psychologists,
physiotherapists, all experts and skilled in their fields.
MediLife is an integral part of HMC Herzliya Medical
Centers, the largest private hospital group in Israel. MediLife's
association with the renowned Medical Centers gives the patient
and the family a feeling of well-being, in addition to offering
various other medical options, including practitioners of
the highest level in all medical specialties, operating theaters,
hospitalization rooms, diagnostic facilities and laboratories.
