Overview

What Is Integrative Oncology Support?

Integrative oncology is the thoughtful combination of conventional cancer care with evidence-informed complementary approaches that support the whole person, body, mind, and spirit, throughout the cancer journey. At AWAREmed, this is not about replacing conventional treatment. It is about enhancing well-being, supporting resilience, and addressing the many dimensions of health that cancer touches.

Dr. Dalal Akoury, MD brings deep compassion and clinical expertise to oncology support. With a background that includes oncology-related training, she understands both the medical realities and the deeply personal nature of a cancer diagnosis. She works alongside your oncology team to provide supportive, complementary care that respects your current treatment protocol.

AWAREmed's integrative oncology support focuses on optimizing your body's resilience during treatment, supporting recovery afterward, and attending to quality of life, including fatigue, nutritional status, immune function, emotional well-being, and side effect management, with approaches that are safe within the context of your ongoing care.
