Support on the journey to health

Living after cancer is a journey for the mind, the emotions and the spirit. Navigating your way back to health and confidence can seem an overwhelming challenge – with so much information out there, it’s difficult to know what to believe and whom to trust.

Ease the way

Whatever path to recovery you choose, your journey is unique and you will need support along the way. The Conscious Care Circle is a multi-disciplinary team of therapists working in the Johannesburg area who collaborate to provide a holistic approach to treatment, working together with biomedical practitioners.

“Recovering from cancer is far more than a physical journey. It touches on every aspect of life – emotional, mental, spiritual.”
– Gail Williams, founder member, Conscious Care Circle
