Startseite Treatment spectrum Early stages of cancer and lymphoma
Active pre- and aftercare for cancer
Successfully treating cancer at an early stage is a crucial step – but even after that, it remains important to focus on your health. Prevention and aftercare play a central role in strengthening your body, preventing relapses and improving your quality of life in the long term. At the Alpstein Clinic, we take a holistic approach that combines modern medicine, individual care and natural therapies to provide you with the best possible support on your road to recovery.
Take precautions and recognize risk factors
Many people are afraid of developing cancer. There are two main reasons for this: On the one hand, cancer is still the second most common cause of death in Switzerland after cardiovascular disease. On the other hand, many fear the side effects of conventional therapies such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Our doctors are therefore often asked:
- What can I do as a precaution?
- What therapeutic measures are useful in complementary medicine for cancer patients?
- What does active aftercare look like in complementary medicine?
- What are the causes of cancer?
Despite intensive basic research, the exact causes have not yet been clarified in detail. Cancer causes a change in the genetic material of the cells. This can be inherited or occur spontaneously. The result is a disruption of the genetically regulated balance between the cell cycle, which is responsible for growth and division, and cell death. If the repair genes of the cells cannot repair the resulting damage, uncontrolled cell growth occurs: a tumor develops, which can be benign or malignant.
Risk factors for the development of cancer include
- Smoking, alcohol consumption
- Excessive sunbathing
- Environmental toxins
- Overweight, lack of exercise and an unbalanced diet
- Chronic infections
- Hereditary predisposition
- Long-lasting and unresolved psychosomatic stress factors
Every case of cancer is preceded by a long history. That is why we at the Alpstein Clinic attach great importance to active prevention and the early identification and avoidance of risk factors.



Our approach to possible cancer diseases
Our approach to possible cancer diseases
The aim of cancer prevention is to identify the risk of developing the disease at an early stage and to reduce or even completely eliminate it with a suitable therapy.
We can treat the following risk factors with therapy:
- Toxin contamination such as heavy metals, pesticides, insecticides, plastics, etc.
- Lack of or limited function of important detoxification enzymes
- Chronic infections such as viral diseases, dental disorders, etc.
- Deficiencies of vitamins, minerals, trace elements etc.
- Disturbed intestinal flora, intestinal mucosa not intact (leaky gut)
- Cell metabolism disorder (mitochondriopathy)
- Food intolerances, etc.
If you already have cancer or for follow-up care after a tumor, we offer the option of further diagnostics:
- Laboratory diagnostics
- Determination of circulating tumor cells (CTC), chemo- and biologics sensitivity test
- Th1/Th2/Th17 - cytokine status
- Nagalase test (endogenous enzyme with immunosuppressive effect that can be used for therapy monitoring)
- Function test of natural killer cells (NK cells) and associated drug tests to determine which drug best stimulates the natural killer cells.
- Specific tumor markers, among others
- Thermography
- Heart rate variability (HRV) / HRV measurement over 24 hours
- Panoramic image of the teeth (OPT)
- Global Diagnostic
Thanks to in-depth diagnostics, we can define sensible additional therapeutic measures for an existing cancer.
We attach great importance developing a complementary medicine concept tailored to the individual illness of each patient. This is also possible in conjunction with conventional treatment methods such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
