EVIDENCED BASED ONCOLOGY/CANCER SUPPORT
A Focus On Breast Wellness with Support Strategies to Prevent and Help With Breast Cancer.
Breast cancer was the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australia in 2018. It is estimated that it will remain the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in 2022.
In 2018, there were 18,742 new cases of breast cancer diagnosed in Australia (205 males and 18,538 females). In 2022, it is estimated that 20,640 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed in Australia. We all know too many individuals who have been diagnosed with this disease. You just have to look at our singer celebrities Chrissy Amphlett who wanted the anthem "I touch Myself" to be written about breast awareness. Kylie Minogue, Delta Goodrem all had brushes with the disease. Many individuals looked up to our Australian Icon Olivia Newton John and her brave, graceful way she thrived with life with her breast cancer diagnoses. Sadly she passed away last month.
It's imperative we highlight and make individuals aware of prevention information but also the strategies and integrative oncology tools that help women with this diagnosis.
