Lisa is a vibrant and passionate practitioner of Chinese Medicine. Her journey began in her teen years, when she turned to it for relief from hormonal issues and migraines. At 14, a few needles and what she thought were some “gross tasting herbs” not only reduced her symptoms, but it sparked a lifelong passion for the practice.

  
It is no surprise that she feels connected to treating women of all ages battling hormonal challenges. Whether you’re experiencing painful, irregular, missing or heavy periods, or if you’ve been diagnosed with conditions such as endometriosis, PMDD, vaginismus or PCOS; Lisa is the practitioner for you, she will work diligently with you to improve your symptoms, address the root cause, unravel the complexities and educate you along the way. She is an advocate for body and cycle literacy and will help you to understand your individual ebbs and flows.  

Lisa’s expertise in fertility is rooted in her deep understanding of both male and female reproductive health. Trained in the Fertile Life Method she support individuals and couples on their conception journey. Lisa has a keen ability to assess and address the complexities of fertility challenges, from optimizing natural cycles to IVF. She is dedicated to empowering her patients with knowledge, helping them understand their unique fertility journey.


While hormonal health is a focal point of her practice, her scope extends to supporting clients with mental health, insomnia, fatigue, digestive issues, headaches and migraines.

Lisa’s treatments are rooted in acupuncture and herbal medicine, combining ancient wisdom with a modern, holistic approach. Her travels to longevity hotspots around the world have deepened her understanding of how community, culture, nourishing food, and joyful movement contribute to vitality. Inspired by her experiences in the Blue Zones, Lisa believes true health is not just about treating symptoms but about cultivating a purposeful, vibrant life.

Lisa has found her purpose in ancient medicine, and with a commitment to lifelong learning, she continually expands her knowledge. With a gentle touch, a warm heart, and a deep desire to have her clients feeling their best, Lisa offers a unique blend of wisdom and compassion in every session to help remove barriers and find lasting vitality.
