Cancer Support
All of our providers are Terrain Certified Practitioners under Dr. Nasha Winters and the Metabolic Terrain Institute of Health. Under this method of practice, we evaluate 10 key areas of well-being from Dr. Nasha’s book, “The Metabolic Approach to Cancer“. This type of healing and evaluation alludes to the teaching of Gérard Guéniot who mastered and taught these notions of modern French homeopathy. From the original perspective of natural medicine, the terrain of a human being is made up of the following primary concepts: what is inherited, an individual’s personal history, and what suppressive medical therapies they’ve had. We take everything possible into consideration to understand your health!
OUR TAKE ON CANCER
We understand that a cancer diagnosis is overwhelming and possibly even traumatic. We are here to guide you through the various twists and turns of your healing process with the clarity of wholistic therapeutics, knowledge and experience.
Prevention?
Diagnosis?
Progressing?
Metastatic?
Our clinic is set up with doctors working with a metabolic approach to cancer, prepared to support you and your family to navigate the care system and create a lifestyle that can slow and stabilize your terminal disease. We strongly advise that all patients read The Metabolic Approach to Cancer, by our esteemed colleague, Dr. Nasha Winters and her co-author, keto-smart nutritionist Jess Higgins-Kelley. We recommend this book be your motivator and scientific backdrop, since we work closely with this method to give our patients options that are able to restore health. Thanks to Dr. Nasha and her 30+ year survival time, cancer is no longer the mystery it once was.
Our work is to assess and address various health factors which enables a shift in tumor cells back to healthy cells. The body does this naturally when functioning properly. One of the most common things we hear is the perplexed, “I was completely healthy until my cancer diagnosis!”. If you have developed cancer, please understand you have not been healthy your whole life. Let us help you to understand why, so that you can know what to do to correct your systemic dysfunction.
RE-GAIN YOUR VOICE, YOU DO HAVE A CHOICE
Remember that Cancer is not a “battle” and you are not a battlefield; cancer is a derangement of your normal functioning on nearly every level imaginable. From the vantage point of understanding how you got cancer, a terminal diagnosis can be reinterpreted as a gift to help you have a better life than you did before diagnosis.
We work with all stages of cancer, even terminal cases. We follow the most up-to-date, well documented naturopathic and metabolic-based protocols that either complement your conventional care or lead you out of a program that is failing you as your disease continues to progress.
ALLOW OUR NATUROPATHIC PHYSICIANS TO ASSIST YOU
Not all cancers have the same cause – nor even a single cause. As each patients’ cancer has a combination of causes, it necessitates a combination of therapeutics. By this, we don’t mean a two-or three-drug cocktail, but rather an unraveling of all that layered into your body’s shift into making cancer cells. Always remember that your cancer was created by you – it is not separate from you, it is a part of you.
Let us help you understand why and how your cancer came to be – and what you can do about it.
Dr. Nasha Winters will be supporting our care and oversight in guiding you as a patient of Options. Dr. Erin was hand selected to be a part of Dr. Nasha’s inaugural training program. Dr. Laura and Dr. Patrick also graduated from her MATC (Metabolic Approach to Cancer) Mastermind Course, making all of our doctors Terrain Certified Practitioners!
With this background in addition to our naturopathic philosophy, our team espouses the best clinical judgment, capacity and ability to guide and adjust patient care as needed, versus following standardized protocols that are not specific or individualized to each patient’s circumstances.
WE HOPE THAT YOU WILL LET US GUIDE YOU THROUGH THIS TUMULTUOUS TIME
We split our oncology onboarding into four consults, branched under one fee, to minimize “information overload”. This process allows us, and you, to delve into your life story to get a better understanding of your entire life. We discuss your specific cancer and how your past traumas, medical treatments, genetics, epigenetics, toxic exposures, and diet have all contributed to this diagnosis.
DR. NASHA WINTERS
Founder of the Metabolic Approach to Cancer and the Metabolic Terrain Institute of Health
Dr. Nasha Winters was diagnosed with Cervical cancer twice at age 16 and then Stage IV Ovarian Cancer at 19. Conventional medicine had given her a very short time to live and no options for treatment. Instead of accepting this diagnosis and living out her final months, she took her health into her own hands.
Now, over 30 years later, she is training other physicians using her metabolic and terrain-centered approach. She is one of the foremost experts in the field of naturopathic oncology, training physicians the world over in her Terrain-centric approach outlined in her book. She has also launched the Metabolic Terrain Institute of Health, dedicated to preventing and improving the course of cancer care throughout the globe.
Our physicians have access to Dr. Nasha as well as the community of practitioners who have trained with her through the Metabolic Terrain Forum. Serving as a sort of metabolic ‘hivemind‘, this forum is available to physicians who have graduated the Metabolic Approach to Cancer Mastermind program.
Our physicians have exclusive access to Dr. Nasha Winters, with the ability to ask specific questions as needed. In times of urgency, this is very important and is often a critical piece of support that our clinic provides.
