What is integrative oncology?

Studies suggest that spiritual well-being may help individuals better cope with the emotional and psychological effects of cancer and promote resilience and a sense of inner peace. It can be an important source of comfort and solace. Many patients and caregivers have found that a spiritual or religious practice can help manage stress, alleviate anxiety, and reduce depression.
