Hi, I'm Lisa!
Lisa Purdy | Naturopathic Doctor & Master Herbalist
My passion for natural health and love of using herbs has led me to be living the life I love, sharing my skills and knowledge with the local community, both in the store and with personal health consultations. I enjoy helping others, especially mothers and grandmothers, empowering them to improve their own health and to encourage their families towards a healthy lifestyle. When I am not at the store, you will find me in the garden, cozied up with a good book, or snuggling with my cat Pippen.
I was married for 38 years, until my husbands passing in 2021 from cancer. We have six children and seven grandchildren. Five of my six children were birthed at home, and all of them naturally. I raised my children using herbs and natural remedies as often as possible, and most of my children reached adulthood without ever needing to see a doctor. While I believe strongly in natural medicine, I recognize the importance of doctors and hospitals and use their services when necessary. I am grateful for the miracle of my youngest daughter, who has had multiple life-saving surgeries. When it comes to childhood sniffles and fevers, though, I have always relied on natural remedies from my herb cupboard and I believe my children are healthier because of it.
I have over 20 years of practical experience using herbs and working with clients. I have the educational qualifications of a Doctor of Naturopathy, an educational degree received from Trinity School of Natural Health. I am a Traditional Naturopath, which is a general practitioner in natural health. Naturopaths attempt to find the cause of the problem and not just cover the symptoms. They use many natural modalities to help balance the body. I am also a Master Herbalist, this degree from the School of Natural Healing, taught under Dr. John Christopher. Herbs are my “first love”, and I tend to turn to them first, when looking for a natural solution. I love learning and then sharing that knowledge in the classes that I teach and in my consulting practice. It is important to note that I am not a physician, I do not diagnose, prescribe drugs, or treat any disease. Please see your medical professional for those needs.
