In holistic healing, ailments are viewed as the result of an imbalance of energies. Therefore, we focus on creating a solid foundation of proper nutrition so we have a balanced body to begin our healing work. After stabilizing the body we will work with multiple different modalities to improve your overall health and wellness.
Natural Nutrition & Nutrition Symptomology acknowledges that the body functions best when it is nourished from whole, live and natural foods supplied by nature. Nutritional symptomatology is the process of interpreting bodily symptoms to find underlying causes and nutritional imbalance. Once we identify nutritional imbalances in the 11 body systems we will develop a specific nutritional plan with the specific nutrients your body requires from food, nutritional and herbal supplements to help resolve digestive problems, allergies, candida, hypoglycemia, PMS, menopause and more. Nutrition has been proven to be the single most significant controllable determinant of health. Research has shown us that the majority of major diseases can be prevented through dietary means.
Aromatherapy is the use of aromatic, botanical essential oils to balance and rejuvenate body, mind and spirit and to alleviate symptoms of illness.
Botanical Medicine is a plant based medicine that involves the use of herbal teas, tinctures, capsules, and other forms of herbal preparations to assist in recovery from injury and/or illness. We will look at herb-nutrient and herb-drug interactions which are important factors in the selection and safe use of botanical medicines.
Homeopathy is a medicine based on the concept ‘like cures like.’ This means that a substance will cure symptoms in a sick person when given in infinitesimal doses, although when taken in overdose, it would cause symptoms in a healthy person. Homeopathy treats the whole person not just the symptom.
Reflexology is a science based on the principle that there are reflex points in the feet and hands which correspond to every body part, organ and gland. Stimulation of the reflex points can help to alleviate health problems, stress and balance body functions. Foot treatments are said to dissolve the hardened toxins, which accumulate in the body in the form of tiny crystals.
Chakra Balancing works toward balancing your energy anatomy and the 7 major chakras to reduce or eliminate the physical diseases and emotional blocks of the chakras. We will work intuitively with the chakras to move illness through the human energy field to assist your emotional healing as part of treating illness and disease.
Colour Therapy is a form of vibrational healing using visible light spectrum colours to enhance well-being to energize and balance you on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level. We will use colour tonating (the use of coloured light filters to treat specific areas of the body and for emotional and mental healing), colour breathing (absorbing and transmitting universal energy by means of assimilating colour vibrations), and colour visualization and meditation (accessing higher colour dimensions to raise the vibration of the human energy field and balance chakras).
Subtle Aromatherapy uses the vibrational qualities of essential oils to facilitate the healing of the body’s energy field, chakras, and psyche. A subtle aromatherapy treatment involves bodywork coupled with spiritual healing, energy transfer and essential oils. It synergistically combines universal life force with the plants’ and client’s life force while using psychoaromathrapy and the vibrational healing qualities of plants to impact the brain and nervous system.
Bach Flower Remedies are a natural, vibrational healing system of flower essences derived from nature. The remedies help restore balance to the mental and emotional bodies of the energy field, thereby strengthening the physical body and helping it resist disease.
Energy Medicine employs the principle that we can dialogue and interact with our body’s subtle energy systems in a manner that promotes health and harmony. Through a series of non-invasive exercises, hands-on practice and pragmatic tips learn how energies can be assessed and then rebalanced. These techniques are based upon the work of Donna Eden, as described in her book, “Energy Medicine”, to focus, boost and increase your vitality.

In January 2013 I realized I needed to do something to improve my health. I spent 2012 on maternity leave and often neglected taking care of my own health (sleepless nights and caring for a tiny human will do that!). Not to mention the many years before that where health was at the bottom of my list of priorities. Luckily, I discovered Lisa's 30 day green smoothie challenge. The recipes were incredible and a green smoothie drinker was born! But I didn't stop there. Starting each day in such a healthy way led me to consult with a naturopath (it would have been Lisa if we were in the same city), do an elimination diet, and discover that I have sensitivities to wheat and milk. I changed to a whole foods-based diet (most of the time) and took up running. In the span of 8.5 months I went from being tired and sluggish on the couch (literally - I could run for one minute at a time before having to walk) to having enough energy to run the Detroit International Half Marathon. I actually RAN the whole thing! And I lost almost 60lbs along the way! Thank you, Lisa, for being my catalyst. Your challenge kept me interested in a new way of living and saved me! I continue to drink a green smoothie every day for breakfast. What a wonderful way to start each day!
Thank you thank you thank you!!!Imogen Meloche Windsor, Ontario
