Hi, I'm Lisa
I am a bookish wellness junkie with a fierce belief that when we are ready, we can "get it done". I am a practical mother of 3, with over 15 years of professional experience in healthcare. Practically, I am a certified Integrative Nutrition Coach, Institute for Functional Medicine member, Certified Personal Trainer, Fitness Instructor and YTT200 hour Yoga Instructor. I am a perpetual student on an ever-evolving wellness journey. Working with clients for nearly 20 years, I am acutely aware of how of context plays a crucial role in our overall wellness. Life changes quickly. Injuries happen. Goals evolve. We partner with you to develop new and dynamic strategies.

Our Services
- We prefer to start with Medical Health and get baseline physical health data that will inform the conversation. We work with Functional Medicine physician Dr. Dana Russo D.O. / Glenview, IL, who can order tests as appropriate and will analyze hormone levels, thyroid, vitamin levels and provide an overview of the bloodwork. We can also do food sensitivity testing.
- We talk about all the components of your previous wellness journey, what life looks like today to set goals and create a plan. The plan is uniquely yours.
- We will delve into Nutrition, Activity, Community, Stress Management and Lifestyle including sleep, stress management, and habits related to work and personal life. These topics are interconnected, to improve one, we strive to understand the broad picture.
