Our understanding of the group of diseases we call cancer, and the mechanisms that cause or drive it, has progressed enormously over the last 50 years. Yet there is still no consensus over mechanisms. Mainstream oncological treatments continue to often fail and cause extensive collateral damage. Cancer now ranks as either the first or second leading cause of death in most industrialised countries.
Conventional oncologists remain sceptical about treatments that don’t involve the mainstay of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy and surgery. Natural treatments for cancer outside this orthodoxy are shunned, often due to a lack of knowledge, fear of failure, or concerns over the consequences of stepping outside established guidelines.
This masterclass by Leo Pruimboom PhD and Rob Verkerk PhD will bring you two different but interlinked perspectives.
Dr Pruimboom’s Drug-Free Cancer Approach introduces a new paradigm to both understanding cancer, as well as a toolbox of strategies that help support those afflicted by the disease, and how to prevent it. This is not an alternative or complementary model, but one rooted in science and a holistic, drug-free philosophy derived from CPNI and evolutionary biology and ecology.
Participants will gain insights into a range of innovative, drug-free interventions* and learn how to apply a “photo-film” methodology to help understand and address the underlying mechanisms driving the most common cancers. By the end of Dr Pruimboom’s masterclass, you will be equipped with new strategies that will offer hope and practical solutions to patients or clients with cancer, including those facing desperate circumstances, while also having a renewed toolbox to help prevent cancer in those who are otherwise susceptible to the disease.
Based on his many years of advisory role with the UK’s only integrative cancer charity, Yes To Life, Rob Verkerk PhD will present some of the latest insights from cancer research, including the diverse views on its origins and drivers. He will also offer new perspectives on the monitoring of cancer in patients. He will go on to unpack the medico-legal situation for the diverse range of medical, health and fitness practitioners working with individuals with cancer to help you practice confidently in the best interest of your patients or clients.

Speakers
Rob Verkerk PhD
Founder, Executive & Scientific Director Alliance for Natural Health
Rob’s work has taken him to all the corners of the earth and his recognition of human co-dependence on nature, as well as the human propensity to exploit and destroy it, has helped him devote his life to finding better ways of working with, rather than against nature. Rob is firmly of the view that nature-based solutions hold the key to human and planetary sustainability.
Dr Leo Pruimboom
Founder, Clinical Psychoneuroimmunology Pruimboom Institute
Dr Leo Pruimboom is a pioneer in Clinical Psychoneuroimmunology (CPNI), a translational medical discipline that studies the interaction between the neurological, endocrine, immune and metabolic systems, and their role in our health and wellbeing. A biochemist by training, he has dedicated his career to developing medical protocols that not only treat the symptoms of diseases, but also address their underlying physiological, social and ecological causes.
