Overview
One of the aims of Yes to Life is to raise awareness of complementary and alternative cancer therapies that are currently unavailable on the NHS.
Many of these treatments have been in use for decades, whereas some are very new techniques. But almost all have yet to undergo extensive clinical trials. This does not mean that they are ineffective or that they may not be able to help in some circumstances. It merely means that there has not been the will - either commercial or medical - to fund trials.
Access to these treatments could be absolutely vital to a patient who has reached the end of the line with orthodox treatment or to complement orthodox therapies where there is little certainty of efficacy.
Directory of Treatments
The first phase of LIFE> (our 'world's first' online searchable Directory), called RESOURCES, can now be accessed. There you will find a preliminary range of treatments. If you cannot find what you are looking for in the Directory, please contact our Help Centre.
The second phase, TALK, is currently being tested. This will enable users to interact with each other regarding items found in the Directory. So every Treatment, Practitioner or Organisation will have a button saying 'See what people are saying about...' that will take them straight to online discussions on that topic.
You can also find further information in our Recommended Reading and Links pages.
What treatments are included?
There are a vast number of alternative cancer treatments out there, some of them blatantly suspect. However, the hospitals clearly don't have all the answers for cancer sufferers, and some of the alternative practitioners and the therapies they offer are certainly worth taking very seriously.
The possibilities for treatment include Hyperthermia, Gerson Therapy, Metabolic Therapy, Pfeifer Protocol, Zeolite, Laetrile, Mistletoe, Ukrain, Radiowave Treatment, Photodynamic Therapy, Intravenous Vitamin C, Essiac, Dendritic Cell Vaccines, Hoxsey Therapy, Issels Therapy, to name a few.
By extensive research and direct dialogues with practitioners, we intend to arrive at what we believe to be the most promising treatments available.
