About this course

Cancer-related fatigue is the single most common and debilitating symptom reported by cancer survivors, yet it remains one of the most undertreated.
Unlike ordinary tiredness, cancer-related fatigue does not resolve with rest and can persist for months or even years after treatment ends. Understanding its biological roots and the full range of evidence-based interventions is essential for any practitioner working with this patient population. 

In this five-module series, Dr Jessa Landman draws on 15 years of clinical experience in integrative oncology to offer a thorough and practical guide to assessing and addressing cancer-related fatigue. 
Beginning with the biological mechanisms that drive it, she takes you through formal assessment tools, current clinical practice guidelines, lifestyle strategies, and the emotional and social dimensions that so often go unaddressed.

This is a highly encouraging and clinically-grounded series so you can offer your patients a genuine path back to vitality and energy.

Your Presenter

Dr Jessa Landmann

Dr Jessa Landmann is a naturopathic doctor specialising in integrative oncology with a clinical focus on improving quality of life for individuals undergoing and recovering from cancer treatment.
Based in Calgary, Canada, she works alongside conventional oncology teams to provide evidence-informed, patient-centred supportive care across the cancer continuum.

Dr Landmann holds a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Calgary. She has completed specialised training in adjunctive cancer care and holds certifications in intravenous therapy, acupuncture, and mesotherapy. She is an active member of professional bodies including the Oncology Association of Naturopathic Physicians and the Society of Integrative Oncology.

Her clinical work centres on addressing the often under-managed consequences of cancer and its treatments, including fatigue, neuropathy, sleep disruption, and reduced functional capacity. She is particularly recognised for her work in cancer-related fatigue, where she applies a systems-based approach integrating nutrition, metabolic support, physical rehabilitation, and behavioural strategies to restore energy and resilience.

Dr Landmann is the author of Beyond Cancer Fatigue, a practical, evidence-informed guide that translates current research into clinically actionable strategies for patients and practitioners. Her work emphasises that cancer-related fatigue is not simply a subjective complaint, but a multifactorial physiological condition influenced by inflammation, treatment effects, endocrine changes, and psychosocial factors.

In addition to clinical practice, she contributes to professional education through lectures, publications, and media appearances, with topics spanning integrative oncology, acupuncture in cancer care, and survivorship support. Dr Landmann’s approach is defined by a commitment to individualised care, bridging conventional oncology with complementary strategies to help patients maintain function, improve quality of life, and recover more effectively following treatment.
