lisa's personal details
Born in Australia, Lisa has been passionate
about skiing since the age of 4 years, when her parents first took her skiing.
She later enjoyed a colorful (but chilly) career as a professional skier across
hemispheres and continents, finally settling in Verbier. Inspired by her
experience of combining nutrition, massages and yoga as a therapeutic tool to
improve sports performance, she decided to study natural therapies. Since 1992,
Lisa has completed courses of study in Herbal Medicine, Reiki, Reflexology,
Sports & Relaxing Massage, Shiatsu, Macrobiotic Nutrition & most
recently, trained to teach
Yoga.Lisa opened Ambrosia in 1998
as a health food center offering some therapies, but has since transformed it
into a natural therapy & yoga
center.Lisa believes the future of
the human race is dependent upon us taking responsibility for our own health and
that of our beautiful home planet. With this in mind, she offers the treatments
available in Ambrosia as an alternative to mainstream, pharmaceutical medicine,
hoping to help point the way for a safer, more peaceful & productive future
for all beings on our planet.She's
still a keen skier, refreshing body /mind with days out in the powder between
her therapeutic work, occasionally still teaching alpine or telemark technique
& putting in the odd appearance for the
camera.In 2008 you can catch up
with Lisa in Marrakesh where she is investigating opening a yoga and retreat
center. Check out the details for the yoga retreat in Spring. While she is
there, she is also available for private yoga and massage appointments. Prices
