Cancer Treatment Programme
Prevention & Care
You are not choosing between Ayurveda and your treatment. You are adding to it. Living through cancer treatment — or supporting someone who is — is exhausting in ways that are difficult to put into words. The treatment works, but it takes something from the body. Our cancer support programme at Tigris Valley is built for exactly this space — not instead of your oncologist's plan, but alongside it. Helping the body recover, the immune system rebuild, and the person inside the patient feel like themselves again.
Integrative support beside oncology — not instead of it
treatment and beyond
This programme is not designed to fight cancer — your oncologist is doing that. It is designed to support the body, mind and spirit through what that fight asks of it.
Managing nausea, fatigue, loss of appetite and nerve sensitivity with targeted Ayurvedic therapies and herbal formulations, used alongside your treatment.
Soothing inflamed tissue, supporting skin health and easing the deep tiredness that radiation often leaves behind, once your oncologist confirms it is safe to begin.
Rebuilding strength and immunity after surgery, with therapies that support tissue healing and help the body regain a stable baseline.
Addressing the profound exhaustion that goes beyond ordinary tiredness — through Ojas restoration, gentle nutrition therapy and Ayurvedic vitality support.
For guests in later stages, or those whose focus has shifted from cure to comfort, palliative Ayurvedic care at Tigris Valley centres one thing: that you feel like a person, not a patient. Gentle therapies for discomfort and nerve sensitivity, emotional support for patients and accompanying family, a restorative daily rhythm, and accommodation for one family member or caregiver.
not alternative
Integrative oncology means bringing Ayurvedic and complementary support into the same room as conventional treatment — not putting them in competition. Nothing is introduced without your oncologist's knowledge, and nothing in this protocol is designed to conflict with your primary treatment plan.
Physicians at Tigris Valley review your oncology reports before the programme begins. We ask for a current oncologist's report and treatment summary, a list of active medications and chemotherapy agents if applicable, recent bloodwork including complete blood count and liver and kidney function, and any imaging from the past three months.
We liaise with your treating oncologist on an ongoing basis. No herbal formulation is introduced without checking for known interactions with your active treatment. The programme is adjusted in real time if your medical situation changes. Strong international connectivity is standard throughout the property for calls home.
Our international coordinator handles Russian-language communication from first enquiry through discharge. For US guests, many arrive after primary treatment when their oncologist has cleared them, or during gaps in chemotherapy cycles. We ask for an oncologist's clearance letter or consultation notes, a full medication and supplement list, recent labs, and a brief note on your primary goal — recovery, energy, emotional support or palliative comfort.
integrative protocol
01
Every step is reviewed against your current oncology treatment. We do not begin any session or herb protocol without completing this review first — full documentation, herb-drug interaction screening, and liaison with your treating oncologist.
02
Immune-strengthening Panchakarma is adapted for cancer patients — not the intensive detox used in general programmes. Classical anti-inflammatory herbs are selected from your current treatment, bloodwork and constitution. Ojas restoration uses nourishing oils, warm herbal treatments and a restorative daily rhythm to lift deep fatigue.
03
Structured sessions address the anxiety, grief, fear and emotional depletion that accompany a diagnosis — for patients and the family members who carry it. Accommodation for one accompanying family member is arranged as part of the stay. We keep your oncologist informed of the programme, any changes, and any concerns we observe.
your stay
NABH accredited, UNESCO recognised, AYUSH recognised. Guests from 40+ countries. Family accommodation for one caregiver is arranged as part of the stay, because healing is rarely done alone.
Warm herbal oil massage that supports circulation, eases muscular tension and gives the body a consistent, nourishing signal of care throughout your stay.
A continuous stream of warm oil across the forehead, used to address the anxiety, sleep disruption and emotional strain that frequently accompany treatment.
Classical Ayurvedic rejuvenating formulations selected to support immunity and rebuild tissue vitality, dosed conservatively and reviewed against your active medications.
A warm, nutrient-dense, easy-to-digest sattvic diet that supports absorption and energy without taxing a digestive system already under strain from treatment.
honestly answered
Is Ayurvedic support safe during active chemotherapy? It can be, under the right conditions — full oncology documentation reviewed by our physician, careful herb-drug interaction screening, and liaison with your treating oncologist throughout.
What documentation do I need? At minimum: your oncologist's most recent report or clearance letter, your current medication list, and recent bloodwork (CBC, metabolic panel). Send these in advance so our physician can review before you travel.
Can my family member stay with me? Yes. Accommodation for one accompanying family member or caregiver is arranged as part of your programme. For most cancer patients, having family present is not a comfort — it is a necessity.
Can you liaise with my oncologist back home? Yes. This is standard practice for all international guests. We ask for your oncologist's contact details at intake and keep them informed.
