Skin integrity & barrier support
Evidence-based topical and systemic approaches to support skin healing, minimize redness or irritation, and protect tissue health in the treated area.
Integrative Cancer Care
Radiation Support
A personalized, evidence-informed support plan that remains safe alongside your conventional radiation care and is focused entirely on your quality of life.
If you are preparing for or currently navigating radiation therapy, you likely have many questions about how to best support your skin, energy, and overall health during your sessions. Whether you want to take a proactive role or you are in recovery dealing with lingering effects, you are in the right place.
Radiation therapy uses high-energy beams to precisely target and destroy cancer cells. While highly effective at shrinking tumors, surrounding healthy tissues, particularly the skin and underlying structures in the treatment area, can also be affected. Side effects like fatigue, skin sensitivity, and local inflammation occur as your body repairs and restores healthy cells throughout treatment.
Our approach
Naturopathic approach to radiation support
Energy & fatigue management
Radiation often causes cumulative fatigue, so we design nutrition and lifestyle protocols to support mitochondrial function and energy reserves and keep you going.
Inflammatory modulation
By focusing on systemic inflammation, we help reduce the severity of treatment-related side effects and support your immune system throughout your sessions.
Safe, evidence-informed integration
We prioritize herb-drug-nutrient interaction reviews so every recommendation works safely alongside your specific radiation plan and does not interfere with it.
Your program
Your integrative cancer care program at JOSIE
A three-step program that bridges your conventional oncology care and natural support.
- Step 1 - Active treatment support: we review your oncology timeline, pathology reports, staging, and schedule, then focus on reducing side effects, improving tolerance, and supporting treatment efficacy with precise, safe therapies that don't interfere.
- Step 2 - Uncovering post-treatment root drivers: once active treatment is complete, we run specialized testing across five core pillars, blood sugar and insulin, inflammation and immune balance, gut and liver function, nervous system and stress, and oxidative stress and nutrient stores.
- Step 3 - Supporting your foundations: we build a deliberate, evidence-based plan of targeted lifestyle adaptations, precise nutrition, and research-backed natural protocols to safely support your foundational health.
