129: The Root Cause Journey: Holistic Healing, Thermography, and Taking Charge of Your Health, Breast Cancer | Edie Miller

When Edie Miller received her breast cancer diagnosis in July 2021, she was shocked, but not unprepared. Years of researching holistic health while helping her aging parents get off medications, combined with watching multiple family members navigate cancer treatment, had already shaped her philosophy: find the root cause, empower the body, and don't expect your oncologist to know what they haven't studied.Diagnosed with stage one, grade one, slow-growing breast cancer, Edie chose a lumpectomy but declined radiation and hormone blockers. When post-surgical pathology revealed angiolymphatic invasion, rather than pursuing additional surgery and expanded radiation, she doubled down on her integrative approach, juicing, high-dose vitamin C infusions, essential oils (including a homemade frankincense, myrrh, and turmeric body butter), castor oil packs, coffee enemas for liver detox, iodine supplementation, and upgraded water filtration. She also credits the Truth About Cancer convention in Nashville and Chris Wark's resources as pivotal guides.Four and a half years later, Edie is cancer-free and channeling her experience into a new business — Integrative Thermography — offering thermography, red light therapy, and whole-body vibration to clients in Middle Tennessee who are looking for proactive, non-invasive health monitoring and support. She's also a Healing Strong group leader, walking alongside others who feel pressure to simply go along with conventional recommendations.Her core message: doctors can only advise within what they've studied. The responsibility to research alternatives falls on the patient — and knowledge, she says, is power.HealingStrong's mission is to educate, equip and empower our group leaders and group participants through their journey with cancer or other chronic illnesses, and know there is HOPE. We bring this hope through educational materials, webinars, guest speakers, conferences, community small group support and more.Please take advantage of our FREE resources below to help you along your health and healing journey:Support Group DirectoryHolistic Curriculum - Participant GuideSupport Our Mission - DonateAdditional Health ResourcesListen to Previous EpisodesWebsite: healingstrong.org
