Alternative cancer treatments are known to offer some relief from various signs and symptoms of cancer although they cannot cure the disease on their own. These therapies are popular for their role in helping the patient cope with pain, anxiety, nausea, fatigue, vomiting, and stress, associated with cancer and its treatments. Healthcare providers are increasingly incorporating evidence-based integrative medicine approaches alongside the standard treatment to enhance overall patient care.
The alternative cancer treatment market is driven by the rising demand for holistic and integrative health approaches, with more and more patients seeking treatments for the physical and psychological aspects of cancer. The rising incidence of cancer is prompting people to look for long-term, sustainable ways to manage their condition, including alternative therapies, which is impacting the market demand. Moreover, the adoption and integration of alternative medicine into standard cancer treatment protocols is expected to rise in the forecast period supported by the intensive research activities aimed at validating the effectiveness of various alternative therapies.
Increasing Healthcare Expenditure to Aid the Market Growth of Alternative Cancer Treatment
The market is driven by the increasing healthcare expenditure and growing insurance coverage for certain alternative treatments for cancer, thus, making these alternative options more financially accessible to patients. Further, many individuals are adopting all-natural plans and methods, which include raw juices, vegetable juicing, plant-based foods, probiotic foods, and organic, natural, and immune-boosting supplements. However, the market faces constraints due to the low effectiveness and impact of popular alternative cancer treatments like IPT-insulin potentiation therapy, Gerson Therapy, iscador (mistletoe extracts), UkrainTM, and biotherapeutic detoxification, and biomagnetic therapy, among others. Increased research and innovation in alternative treatments is expected to result in the introduction of more effective and scientifically validated options, which are likely to augment the market demand.
