Ayurvedic Treatment for Cancer
Cancer is a chronic disease. It is complicated to treat in allopathy due to its reoccurrence and complications. The treatment in allopathy is only surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Which destroys cancerous cells and causes a bundle of side effects. These side effects are more painful than cancer. Chemotherapy & radiation kills not only cancerous cells but our immune cells as well and hence lowers our immunity. But in Ayurveda, there is nothing like this.
Ayurvedic Herbal Medicines increase immunity. Ayurvedic herbal medicines help in treating complications of cancer as well without any side effects. We at Dr. Aggarwals Ayurvedic Panchkarma Clinic & Research Center provide the best Ayurvedic treatment for cancer. We recommend a few investigations to know the exact location and stage of cancer. Generally, a patient comes to us with pre-diagnosed cancer. But still, we may re-investigate. These investigations help in the proper treatment of disease. If the patient does not feel symptomatic relief than changes can be seen after two months of treatment.
