Client Journey's
Within 18 months, just prior to the outbreak of COVID and until she left Singapore, Lisa managed to identify and analyse the toxins within me, recommend some changes to my lifestyle and a put me on range of supplements to detoxify my system and repair the damage that time (and bad habits!) had done. Interestingly, friends who met me after the 2 year hiatus of global travel commented on how much younger I looked: my face and skin was free of toxin build up around the eyes! Wish Lisa well in Malta.

I started seeing Lisa in October 2020 after having worked with a naturopath for a year on my Hashimoto’s. When I started seeing Lisa, my immediate symptoms were fatigue, falling sick often, trouble sleeping, migraines and extremely heavy and debilitating menses. At our first appointment, Lisa spent almost three hours listening intently to all my symptoms. She followed up with tests for chemical sensitivities, mould, hormones, heavy metals, and blood work. As she had expected, she found an overactive immune system. She also found mould, high levels of bad estrogen, some heavy metals and various nutritional deficiencies.
Over the course of the next few weeks, we systematically worked through plans to tackle the results that returned from each test. She ordered targeted supplements, therapies (like infrared sauna), and lifestyle changes, including a meal plan. At first I resisted the idea of a restrictive meal plan (I thought I knew all about my food allergies after having seen allopathic allergists and ENTs my whole life). I did end up trying the meal plan and cut out all foods prone to allergies or sensitivities for 6 weeks. In those weeks I was surprisingly (to me) free from eczema, migraines and bloating. One of the most interesting finds for me was that when I reintroduced eggs, my migraines returned. The “healthy” and nutritious boiled egg breakfast I had been having for as long as I could remember was causing my migraines!
It’s now July 2023. I turned 40 years old this year but feel healthier than I did even in my 20s. I went from just getting by to running 2 miles every morning, eating a healthy wholesome diet, rarely falling sick, rarely having migraines and sleeping well.
What I enjoy most about Lisa is her optimistic outlook to life – she truly believes positive change is possible. Lisa is one of the most open-minded and experiential therapists I’ve come across – she embraces new therapies while having her feet solidly grounded in evidence-based science.
PS – as I strengthened my body and immune system, I was able to slowly reintroduce foods like eggs and eat out at normal restaurants again.

I have been seeing Lisa for the past year as she has helped me to test for and address high levels of mycotoxins in my system (mould poisoning). This isn’t something widely recognized by health professionals so it was a relief to find a practitioner who understood what I was going through.
Lisa assisted me with a comprehensive detox including dietary recommendations and supplement protocol and within 6 months I was back to feeling myself again. Earlier this year I had my 8 year old daughter tested for mycotoxins as she was showing similar symptoms to me. When she tested for elevated levels I was delighted to have Lisa there to guide us through an appropriate protocol.
Lisa has a gentle and warm character and a wealth of knowledge about the science of nutrition. I have been impressed with her lateral approach to working with my daughter and myself and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services.

I’ve consulted Lisa across the past 5 years and she is an outstanding therapist. She is very knowledgeable on supplements and other methods for recovery, and thorough in her recommendations.
During consultations, I am always impressed by her patience and kindness, and also her after conscientiousness in following up. She has fully embraced lifelong learning and I appreciate that she continually applies what she has learnt into her practice. I’m very glad to be a client of Lisa.

I was extremely fortunate to find Lisa when there seemed nowhere else to go with my digestive health issues. I had seen numerous conventional doctors, none of whom were able to help me feel better.
Lisa however, looked at my whole body through a functional medicine lens, why it wasn’t working correctly and partnered with me to bring it back into balance. Through an initial two hour introductory consultation, where she reviewed my entire health history, Lisa delved into what had caused the initial imbalance in order to get to the root of the issue.
Through some, but not excessive testing, and education, Lisa has not only helped me to recover, but she has given me the ability and knowledge to take charge going forward. I cannot thank her enough and for anyone thinking about working with her on their health journey would say “Go for it, it’s life changing”.

I am delighted to share my heartfelt testimonial for Lisa, my amazing Functional Medicine practitioner. Since 2020, she has helped me overcome sleep issues, anxiety, and gut problems.
After a severe paragliding accident in 2022, her expertise in promoting microcirculation and vascular healing was crucial to my recovery. Lisa also assisted my wife in detoxifying heavy metals, improving her health significantly.
With her compassionate approach and exceptional knowledge, I highly recommend Lisa to anyone seeking a transformative health journey. Thank you, Lisa, for being a beacon of healing and hope in our lives!’

Lisa is first and foremost very wonderful, insightful and super caring. She’s been helping me for the last several years as my issues are extremely complicated. I’m carrying a heavy load of toxins and have been developing numerous related symptoms.
Lisa has been helping me to discern what may be causing my issues. I’ve been quite sick and Lisa has been holding my hands throughout. Many a times, I reached out to Lisa, bombarding her with emails and she’s always come through for me.
Lisa’s approach is holistic and all encompassing, with an emphasis on healthy living and complementary therapies to conventional medicines (the latter of which have failed many of us). With Lisa’s help, many of my health issues have been resolved or become much less severe. Patients are not just cases to Lisa, they are treated as individuals with customised protocols and solutions appropriate to their own needs. Lisa has come through with so many kinds of testing and supplements that I’d never heard of, with the aim of finding the ROOT causes to problems, as Lisa doesn’t just look at symptoms. She also works collaboratively with other functional/ integrative health professionals, to make sure her clients get the best all round possible care.
Lisa never ceases to amaze me with her extensive knowledge on many subject matters, ranging from the most prevalent health ailments to the more obscure issues not often heard of in mainstream medicine. This means that she’d be able to help you with any health condition, or that she’d know who to refer you to should that be the case. I highly recommend Lisa.
