The Block Center: Experimental and "Alternative" Therapies
As part of the Block Center’s ongoing commitment to being up-to-date on the most current new treatment options that can benefit you, we place particular emphasis on making certain that we have full knowledge about the experimental therapies and off -label options that have demonstrated reasonable levels of effectiveness and have met responsible scientific standards of safety in well designed clinical trials and tests.
More and more, solid scientific studies are revealing that many therapies --- in common terms often referred to as “alternative” treatments --- can prove meaningful and effective as part of an anticancer program. Of the current avenues being explored, botanicals, immunotherapies, enzyme therapies and certain components of traditional Chinese medicine are showing particular promise.
Working with you, we will share our knowledge of such therapies with you, and then together evaluate their advantages and disadvantages, determine which, if any, may be helpful to you, and then integrate them into your special personal care program.
