CANCER – FROM THE TV
SERIES ‘THE ALTERNATIVE’ Introduction Vox-pops from the case studies. Dr. Robert Jacobs, a Naturopath and cancer expert asks why is that we get particular types of cancer and the relevance of pollutants and free radicals. Later in the programme he uses a diagram to explain the chain of events which need to happen before cancer can occur as part of the first case history. |

Case Study 1
Ted was experiencing problems with his prostate and yet, when he went to his GP, was told there was nothing to worry about. In frustration he went to a London specialist only to discover he was in the late stages of prostate cancer. He felt that the cancer was his body giving him a warning and so went to Dr. Robert Jacobs, naturopath, to both recover from the radiotherapy and to try and make sure he didn’t develop cancer again. |
| Case Study 2 Our second case study, Joyce, also used complementary therapy as a way to help her body recover from the effects of chemotherapy following a mastectomy. Using vertical reflex therapy (reflexology while standing) alongside normal reflexology, Lynne Booth was able to speed up Joyce’s healing process – clearing scar tissue and returning mobility to her arm, allowing her to play her beloved tennis once more! |
| Case Study 3 Helena had also developed breast cancer five years ago, and, when she asked her oncologist how she could make herself healthier, he suggested the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital. Here, Dr. Sosie Kassab uses homeopathic remedies to help cancer patients get back on track as well as lessen the side effects of their conventional treatments. The item also includes an interview with Sinead O’Hara, a homeopathic pharmacist, demonstrating how the remedies are made. |
| Case Study 4 Anthroposophical Medicine is a an integrated approach to healing developed by Rudolf Steiner, taking into account not just the body but also the psychological and spiritual, allowing the patients space to defeat their fears. Therapies included are art and eurythmy (dance) and mistletoe treatments, including injections directly into cancer tumours. This is how Dr. Maurice Orange successfully treated the three tumours in Fran’s neck. |
