“Hey Lisa

Re: My recent appointment

I wasn’t sure exactly what I needed/what I was looking for but the last chat we had sent me on a whirlwind journey and I’d hit a point where I felt stuck again so I needed this appointment – a really good chat with you to be honest – to help me find a new flow with life.

(And, to be honest, I wanted to share with you all the wonderful achievements I’ve made since the last appointments. Leaps and bounds, still some lingering challenges… )

I got everything I needed out of this appointment today and I’m feeling f**k**g great, such an improvement for me!

Thank you so much for doing what you do, you are really good at it and you are great at tailoring your appointment style to suit the individual person.

So grateful for your validation and support.”

“LISA!!

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate you; your knowledge, wisdom and wackiness. You have again helped to lift me up out of a darkish place. I feel optimistic and energised and looking forward to healing my system from the impact of constant mind medication.

You have a magical and mystical soul. I trust you.

PS: The urge to drink my head quiet has gone?? What magic is this you have wrought pray tell.”

“Hi Lisa,

So – six months after I started on the elimination diet, I’m through the reintroductions. I can eat normally again – hurrah!  Saying that – a lot of the habits and recipes will definitely stick – I’ve really enjoyed this culinary adventure.

To be honest with you, in hindsight, I probably could have told you that those would be the foods that I would have ‘issues’ with, so no great surprises.  I’m still roughly tracking how I feel and what I’m eating. Making sure that I’m not going overboard with things that I was sensitive to… BUT – it’s SOOOO nice to be able to go to potlucks and eat all the yummy things!!!

It’s been such an interesting process.
Thank you for helping me navigate it.

I turned 40 over the weekend – erk! But – I’m probably feeling the healthiest I have done in a long time, so I’m excited for the start of this new decade.

Thanks so much!”

“Hey Lisa

Thank you so much for our session yesterday!
You are so wonderful – caring, funny, relatable and a straight shooter, which I appreciate. I felt really well looked after so thank you.

Thanks for setting out everything in an email for me. I feel really positive and confident about the next steps forward! I went and got cashews, brazil nuts and filtered bottled water yesterday (until we sort the filter) and am excited to eat a diverse range of food.

Look forward to speaking with you in a month’s time.

Thanks again!”

“Hey Lisa,

I just wanted to let you know I could cry with happiness right now haha. I know it’s still early days but I really do feel a difference since starting these supplements. I have so much energy and I’m so positive. I am a week away from my period and I have assignments due in a week and last week at work was very chaotic but I have been so calm! For once during the monster phase, all is well…

Amazing what a difference one thing can make to your everyday life.

I think you are a magician.

Thankyou a million times!
(and Jesse, my partner, also thanks you a million times)”

“Regarding the chronic constipation I came to see you with…
I thought I’d let you know that the day after seeing you I pooped. And every day since! Are you a witch?

Giving myself a diverse diet and actually thinking about it as nourishment has been life changing. Also the slow chewing, I never realised what a cookie monster I was when I ate.

I can now poop!
I am a super pooper.
Witchy poo! I bow before you.

Also, despite thinking I didn’t have stress, you saying it looked like that was what I was experiencing got me thinking about if that was so. I started noticing my breath holding, tight throat and clenched jaw. I started realising how jittery and frantic I was at work (calm on top). I thought about how I want my life to be, and what the gap was between that and how I experienced my work day. I’ve been taking steps to address this. Slightly ambushed by the pandemic, but still more aware than I would have otherwise been.

Thank you 100x”

“Thanks for yesterday, that was such an awesome session.

Wow, I took those relaxing pills yesterday after dinner and was asleep in about ½ an hour, my whole core and lower back just relaxed. It was pretty amazing.

So far – definitely a fan.

I’ll let you know how I get on, but this (my treatment plan) all looks great.”

“Thank you so much for your session with me!!

You have no idea how much that affected me positively, I’m so grateful for you and your energy!

Just thought I’d let you know what an impact the diet, Rhodiola and rescue spray has already had. I no longer have my 3pm slump which has been very strange and I can slowly feel myself moving forward.

I’m so excited to see you in a couple weeks time!”

“Thank you for that in-depth detail of what we discussed 🙂

Thanks for all you do and continue to do.

I love working with you.”

“You got it in a nutshell!  Thanks for being so good at what you do and not being dismissive.

I’m encouraged I will see the results with the plan we’ve discussed.”

“It was great to see you – it was the most fun I’ve ever had at an appointment. It feels like a catch up with a friend who has this awesome knowledge and advice to share!

Thanks for your time and looking after the entire family.”

“Thank you so much for our last visit, you spent a lot of time with us and you understood so much and summarised our discussion so well.

Thank you again for going above and beyond.”

“I chose to come to you because I read a lot of your blogs and I very much enjoy the way you write you are so engaging, direct and funny.

I couldn’t be more satisfied with the outcome of the appointment today.

You are bang on!! I need to calm down, that is my biggest difficulty to get in my body and stay there. I appreciate you telling me firmly and repeatedly and again in the email, it’s sinking in.

Simple yet profoundly powerful.

You made me feel very understood despite me being in a total state and even more importantly you were really kind.

I look forward to addressing my health with your guidance as I’m excited about what you can teach me.

Cool thank you so much magic lady.”

“Hi Lisa,

Francis’s digestion is so much better now, am thinking we will just continue with the two supplements you prescribed till they are finished, and keep going with the Iberogast if it looks like he needs it? Sound like a plan? The change in his digestion was literally an overnight cure once he took the Iberogast at the right time and used the supplements you gave.

Then I was thinking that I’ll bring him along in December for you to review and maybe do some general health maintenance for him if need be.

Thank you SO MUCH for helping him – it’s good to know there’s a decent naturopath around who knows her stuff!!”

“Hey Lisa,

I wanted to drop you a line to say you are a ‘Gem’ of a human being.

Thank you for your intelligent, funny and direct approach to health care and advice. For years I had been slowly drowning in silent stress and the crazy treadmill of life and thinking it was normal (and not to mention that hideous chronic rash). It had been a long time since anyone had seen through my smile and challenged me and my lifestyle choices.

It has only been ten weeks but with the aid of supplements and a complete lifestyle change I am beginning to feel the most balanced I have in a very long time and I have now been rash free for the past few weeks…not to mention the random new bursts of energy and the odd little run!
I am so grateful for your kindness and professionalism. Life in the calmer lane is defiantly more enjoyable.”

“I’m so grateful to have met Lisa. My appointments with her are always so fun, inspiring – and she always genuinely cares. I always leave feeling so happy.

I began suffering from anxiety at work, and I had no idea how to cope/feel better. Lisa’s techniques and advice helped me to help myself. I now feel so much happier, with a lot less anxiety. It took time, commitment as well as guidance from Lisa.

Other Naturopaths I’ve seen have asked me to cut out a bunch of food groups, and take hundreds of dollars worth of supplements, which just isn’t realistic for me. Lisa has an entirely different approach, and I love it!! I would highly recommend.”

“Hello dear Lisa,

How have you been?

It’s been a while since we last talked, and that’s partly your ‘fault’. Both Dimitrije and I have been feeling much better and have more energy now – and boy did we need the extra energy in these past few weeks! Relocating and sorting out all the life admin is no small feat. So, my lovely man may have mentioned to you that we have decided to move back to Europe; first stop Croatia, and then a few months in Serbia, and then… God knows what’s next!

We are really excited about taking things slowly for a while, and give ourselves the time and headspace to explore what we want to do with our lives. Thank you for playing an important part in that realisation process for us.

Before we go, we thought it would be wise to stock up on the iodine. How do we go about ordering a bottle for each of us? We’re flying out in a week’s time, hopefully that’s enough time.

We look forward to hearing from you!”

“This email is INCREDIBLY overdue (to-the-point-where-you-most-definitely-don’t-even-remember-me-overdue), but I just had to reach out and say a big thank you.

I came to see you in March last year. And besides my exhaustion, sluggishness, irritability, niggly overweight-ness and general under-the-weatherness, we also talked about a bunch of personal stuff that I hadn’t realised was affecting me so much.

Well, I just wanted to let you know that since taking all your advice (both health- and life-related), I’ve got clearer skin than I’ve had in years, I’ve stopped waking up tired,  I’ve stopped needing afternoon naps, I’ve stopped feeling like a grumpy mess all the time,  and I’ve lost about 15kg!

Needless to say, it’s been a bloody ripper of a year. And it feels like your guidance, honesty, and expertise all came along at the perfect time and just completely radicalised my life.

So, I’ll say it again a little louder for those in the back – thank you SO much!”

“I truly can’t express how amazing it was to meet you. I feel like I’ve been heard and understood for the first time in years.

My husband is great and listens but I don’t think he hears me and understands all my feelings! To have someone get me immediately is massive. And to feel endorsed for my feelings was so validating.

So THANK YOU!

I am so fortunate to have met you. I have commenced my new protocol and can honestly say I am already feeling better. I look forward to our next visit and what the future brings 🙂

Thank you!!!!”

“I am a guy so for months and months I put off going to a Naturopath. I hadn’t felt myself for years, low in energy and no matter what I did nothing seemed to change. I also had a lot of trouble sleeping and finally gave in and ended up seeing Lisa from OOMPH.

OMG! I should have gone sooner! After one consultation she worked her magic and within the next week I started to change. My energy levels increased, I was less stressed, less irritable, more relaxed, more social and finally started to sleep much better than I have in a long long time.

Don’t put it off, just go, you will not regret it.”

“Lisa has helped me understand and gather hope on some health issues which were really bringing me down. I go back to Lisa because she quizzes my mind and links it to what is going on inside.

I’ve had fast and satisfying results that I never would have figured out on my own. I’m living a happier, more content life because of it.

Thank you so much Lisa.”

“If you are a human being with a brain and a body, you will benefit from seeing Lisa – she is my ‘go to’ Naturopath. I live in Christchurch, I’ve been following Lisa’s blog for the last four years and have just recently had two appointments with her over the phone. I knew in the first couple of years reading her blog that she could help me with my health concerns, this was instantly reinforced even via distance appointments.

I would quite easily say that Lisa goes above and beyond as an incredibly supportive mentor for her clients, as well as a passionate nurturing Naturopath.

In less than six weeks I’ve burned six kilos of excess fat that I have been trying to shift for years, I have in many ways had the guidance I needed to redirect my focus from feeling helpless to feeling powerful. I would highly recommend  her (10/10).

Whatever you are dealing with, Lisa can help you.”

“I sought out Naturopathic support with high hopes of managing stress, anxiety and losing weight. I was referred to Lisa by a colleague and immediately knew I was in good hands.  Warm, informative, and downright smart, Lisa’s approach to Naturopathy is straightforward and accessible.

I felt very comfortable opening up to Lisa, and sincerely appreciate her passion for healing naturally. She provided me with a structured plan and new herbs and supplements. Within a month, I experienced significant improvements in stress levels and managed to lose the niggly 7 lbs (a little over 3 kgs).

Looking forward to our next session!”
