Learn About Our Treatments
Your care plan is built around your body’s specific biology. Expand each category below to explore a sampling of the advanced, interconnected interventions we use to map, target, and overcome cancer.
These advanced tests provide the exact genetic and cellular blueprint of your specific cancer, identifying its precise vulnerabilities so we can map out a highly targeted treatment plan.
- Case Review — A meticulous evaluation of your medical history, existing PET scans, and prior diagnostics to construct your comprehensive, personalized care roadmap.
- Greek Cancer Test (RGCC) — A specialized liquid biopsy that isolates circulating tumor cells to map your cancer’s behavior. This test screens your cells against a vast panel of therapies to identify the exact substances—both low-dose medications and natural compounds—it is most vulnerable to.
Driven by your diagnostic data, these therapies directly exploit your tumor’s specific weaknesses—delivering precise IV treatments, light, and heat therapies that disrupt and destroy cancer cells with minimal impact on healthy tissue.
- Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT): Uses insulin to trick cancer cells into opening up, allowing us to deliver low-dose chemotherapy directly into the tumor with high precision and fewer side effects.
- Targeted IVs & Laser Therapy: Administers therapeutic, high-dose natural substances (identified by your Greek Test) alongside photosensitive compounds, which are then activated deep within the tissue using precision laser light to selectively destroy cancer cells.
- Hyperthermia: Delivers controlled heat therapy to selectively target heat-sensitive cancer cells, enhance the effectiveness of your IV treatments, and dramatically improve regional blood flow.
- Weber PBM with Sonotherapy: Uses a sophisticated combination of advanced light and sound waves to penetrate deep into tissues, disrupting cancer cell activity while simultaneously stimulating cellular healing.
These therapies create an oxygen-rich environment that is hostile to cancer cells and energizes healthy ones.
- Ozone & Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): Super-oxygenates your body to weaken cancer cells and energize healthy cells.
- Kaqun Baths: Deliver oxygen directly through the skin, creating a highly oxygenated environment that weakens cancer cells.
Foundational therapies designed to strengthen the body’s defenses, repair tissue, and restore vitality.
- VSEL Therapy: Awakens your body’s own regenerative cells to repair tissue and restore vitality.
- PEMF Therapy: Pulsed electromagnetic waves recharge damaged cells to accelerate healing.
- Nutritional IVs & Immune Support: Builds your body’s natural defense system.
- Detox & Nutrition Plans: Starves cancer cells while fueling your body with what it needs to heal.

Patient StoryMike's Prostate Cancer Success Story
Read storyMike’s incredible journey from severe pain and a PSA of 293 with Stage IV prostate cancer to completely cancer-free, pain-free, and in peak physical shape.
This is the happy story of a PSA going from 293 to 0.93. From severe pain requiring narcotics around the clock to one of the most physically fit 55 years olds you’ll ever see. Stage IV cancer does not have to be a death sentence. Read Mike’s story below.
“I was diagnosed with Stage IV prostate cancer and given a 36% chance of survival. Stage IV cancer (of any kind) is life threatening because this means the cancer has spread from its original site to other areas of the body. I was told by my oncologist that there was no cure and I would be on drugs the rest of my life. Even if I survived, I would never have a normal life again. When diagnosed, my PSA (the marker per blood test that shows the cancer) was at 291. Normal is between 1 and 4. I was scared!
I researched all the possible treatment programs available to find out who exactly was getting the best results with what they were using. I decided on the alternative route as it made the most sense. Although the conventional methods (chemotherapy, radiation, surgery), are the most accepted, they were definitely not the most effective. They were not getting the same consistent results as other alternative medical techniques that have been used around the world for over 40 years with great success.
I chose LifeWorks Wellness Center as Dr. Minkoff and his staff use the most modern techniques available and stay on the cutting-edge of effective noninvasive methods that not only address the current illness, but build up your immune system to prevent a recurrence in the future. I also liked the concept of treating the cause of my cancer, rather than just address the symptoms.
In a matter of months my PSA went from 291 down to under 1. I am rid of my cancer and feel certain myself that it will not return. I have a bright and happy future ahead of me now. I will miss the staff of this unique place. Honestly, it reminded me of when I was a kid and went to summer camp! You wouldn’t think of referring to having cancer being “fun”, but if any place can make it a happier experience, LifeWorks Wellness Center not only can, but does. They saved my life!” Mike. F.

Patient StoryStage 4 Breast Cancer – Now Cancer Free After Treatment!
Read storyFrom a Stage 4 breast cancer diagnosis to completely healthy, active, and cancer-free!
Dr. Minkoff, I had the metal in my teeth removed as you had recommended. I did that at Christmas and you were right, immediately my immune system starting kicking in and I started winning my battle against cancer. Thank you again, for the help and your dedication to saving lives. A year ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 Breast Cancer and today I am healthy, active and cancer free. Words cannot thoroughly express my gratitude.
All of my love and thanks,

Patient StoryMetastasized Prostate Cancer Success!
Read storyFrom metastatic prostate cancer in his hip bone and a staggering PSA of 4,242 to feeling fantastic with his PSA now down to 18!
To all the staff at LifeWorks: Dr. Minkoff, Brooke, Al, Wanda, Rosemarie, Alyssa, Bree, Mahala, Alicia, Rose, Paige, Lindsey, Liz, Amanda, Christine, Mary Pat, Charlotte, Tony, and many more!
Despite the dire reason I was here for treatment, I will never forget the 4 ½ months I was here, and how well and humanely I was treated by everyone. Who could imagine being treated for cancer could be so pleasant and even enjoyable? You all are like close friends to me now. I love you all and will never forget you, as I enjoy my new lease on life.
To anyone considering treatment here, always keep in mind that healing starts with you and your attitude. Stay positive, stick with the program, but don’t forget to help yourself as well. It’s a team effort and it works.
I arrived with prostate cancer metastasized to my hip bone, and a PSA level of 4242. As of now, my PSA level is now 18, and still dropping, and I feel fantastic!
With great appreciation and much love,
Jeremy
