Head Neck Cancer
About Head & Neck Cancer
Head and neck cancer is characterized by the rapid proliferation of abnormal cells that typically originate in the mouth, nose, or throat region. These cancers have the potential to spread to nearby lymph nodes, organs, or other areas of the body. The majority of head and neck cancers are associated with tobacco or alcohol usage or infection with human papillomavirus (HPV).
What are the symptoms of head and neck cancers?

- Problems with dentures.
At the back of the mouth (pharynx), cancer can cause:

Alternative Treatment Options: How ICCA Global Overcomes Challenges with Head and Neck Cancer
When it comes to treating head and neck cancer, typical standard treatment involves surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. Some patients may face surgical resection and have to undergo rehabilitation due to the disruption of the cancer patient’s ability to eat, speak, and even breathe. All of which can leave the patient feeling weak and exhausted.
At ICCA Global, our integrative and alternative cancer therapies allow for safe and effective treatment without the discomfort, physical exhaustion, and rehabilitation that occur with standard treatments.
