Hi @dor64, you were asking about integrative medicine.
"ntegrative medicine uses an evidence-based approach to treat the whole person — your mind, body and soul. Your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs are all involved, so integrative medicine uses a combination of therapies. It “integrates” conventional approaches and complementary therapies to achieve optimal health and healing."

More and more cancer centers include integrative medicine in cancer care. Here's more information about integrative medicine and cancer care at Mayo for example:
– Integrative medicine https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/complementary-alternative-medicine/about/pac-20393581

I see integrative medicine is making a foothold in Australia too. See this website where you can also find pratictioner of integrative medicine.
- Australian Integrative Medicine Association (AIMA) https://www.aima.net.au/about/
