Naturopathy
Naturopathy is an holistic system, meaning that Lisa, as a Naturopath strives to find the cause of disease by understanding the body, mind, and spirit of the person.
Naturopaths employ a wide range of diagnostic techniques to assess causative factors and then call upon different natural modalities to best address and treat the problem.
Naturopathic philosophy is based on the principle that the body, given the opportunity, will heal itself. Good nutrition, fresh air and sunshine, pure water, healthy lifestyle choices and a little help from nature can push the body into a healing response.
Lisa treats both short bouts of illness and chronic conditions, with emphasis on educating her patients to prevent future disease.

Homoeopathy
Homeopathy is a holistic system of medicine which aims to promote healing responses to diseases by administering specially prepared substances. Modern homeopathy was founded by a German physician in the 18th Century and is now used effectively worldwide.
It is a therapy based on treating like with like - what a substance can cause, it can also cure! For example, coffee is known to cause insomnia but miniscule amounts of coffee can be used homeopathically to treat insomnia.
Homeopathy is a very effective, gentle form of medicine that does not interact with other medicines and is perfectly safe to use throughout pregnancy. It is perfect for the treatment of babies, children, the elderly and your pets as it is prescribed in the form of small drop doses.

Herbal (Botanical) Medicine
Classical herbal medicine utilises the Hippocratic principles of treating the person, not the disease; evaluating the whole lifestyle as well as the emotional and circumstantial environment of each patient, not just the physical symptoms.
Over the years Lisa has found herbs to be particularly effective for the treatment of female reproductive system problems, also lung and respiratory problems, and immune dysfunction and fatigue.
Lisa's herbal dispensary contains around 100 different herbs for individual prescriptions.

Nutritional Medicine
Many of us believe that we are what we eat, but, it is not quite that simple. More correctly, we are what we absorb and most of us simply do not absorb all that we need.
The combination of soil mineral deficiencies, toxic pollutants, depletion of nutrients caused by toxins, stress and poor digestion all add up to biochemical imbalances in the body. This in turn causes disease and mood disorders.
A healthy diet IS the basis of good health but we sometimes need to correct biochemical imbalances with nutritional supplementation.
Lisa uses and prescribes a range of nutritional supplements, including the practitioner only ranges from Metagenics and Bioceuticals.

Cellular Health Analysis, Body Composition Testing and Vitality, Longevity and Healthy Ageing
Cellular Health Analysis (CHA) is a simple, non-invasive, accurate and scientifically validated medical test to determine various biomarkers of disease, health and ageing.
These biomarkers include cellular biological age index, cellular health and function, hydration levels, fluid distribution, muscle mass, fat mass and response to treatment.
These readings, in conjunction with a comprehensive case history taken by Lisa, will help her determine whether issues such as toxicity, stress, inflammation and nutritional deficiencies are affecting your health.
A Body Composition test will determine the percentages of fat, fluid and muscle within your body. Because muscular tissue takes up less space in our body than fat tissue, our body composition, as well as our weight, determines leanness.
Two people of equal height and body weight may look completely different from each other because they have a different body composition.

Iridology
Iridology is an diagnostic technique utilising the patterns, colours, and other characteristics of the iris to determine information about a patient's systemic health.
Matching these observations to Iris Charts which divide the iris into zones corresponding to specific parts of the human body, Iridologists can distinguish between healthy systems and organs in the body and those which are overactive, inflamed, or distressed.
Iridology is used as a diagnostic tool, and works in conjunction with naturopathy for alternative means of fixing health related problems.
Iridology is just one of the diagnostic tools that Lisa uses in her Naturopathic practice.

Bach Flower Therapy
Bach flower remedies are dilutions of plant material developed by Edward Bach - an English bacteriologist, pathologist and homeopath in the 1930s.
Bach believed that dew found on flower petals retain healing properties of that plant. The remedies are intended primarily for emotional and spiritual conditions, including but not limited to grief, anxiety, insomnia and stress.
It is claimed that the remedies contain the "energetic" or "vibrational" nature of the flower and that this can be transmitted to the user.
Life can often become very complicated and we all have times when we find it hard to cope emotionally. After an indepth consultation with Lisa, she is able to prescribe a tailor-made Bach Flower Remedy to help you through those emotional traumas.
