To better live cancer during and after the treatment

The OTIUM Foundation adheres to the integrative medicine movement, which considers the human being as a whole. Since 2017, its mission has been to improve the quality of life of people affected, near or far, by cancer. It has two centers in Geneva, offering some 50 therapies validated by a medical committee. Every week, nearly 450 people pass through the doors of our centers.

Signatory companies

Cancer affects not only the person affected, but also their private and professional environment. As a company, this is a reality we have to take into account.

Since September 15, 2021, several companies have joined the Corporate Partnership of the OTIUM Foundation, a benchmark in supporting cancer patients, during and after the disease, and their loved ones. Hear what one of them has to say!
