meet the team

Lisa has over 20 years of experience educating and guiding people through food and lifestyle habit changes to improve their health. She attended Framingham State college in Framingham, MA with a dual major in Food Science and Food & Nutrition, completing her internship in coordination with her studies at various locations in Massachusetts. Her career started in 2000 at Holy Family Hospital in Methuen, MA where she worked in clinical nutrition as well as cardiac rehabilitation. She developed and taught classes focused on using food choices to help with lowering cholesterol and blood pressure levels as well as weight management to prevent the development of further disease. Lisa also created individualized, specific nutrition plans for patients to assist them with their health goals. From there she worked at DaVita Dialysis in various clinics in the northeast as part of the care team for those receiving hemo and peritoneal dialysis to manage their weight, diabetes and electrolyte levels. She also taught classes for those with early stages of kidney failure to show how nutrition is linked to slowing the progression of disease. In 2019 she returned to clinical nutrition at Garnet Health in MIddletown, NY. Over the years, she has been active on running teams, teaching water aerobics and with CrossFit where she has used her nutrition experience to help many friends and class attendees with their personal nutrition programs. Assisting with the progress of clients brings Lisa great joy and she is excited to bring her years of experience to Scotchtown Chiropractic and Physical Therapy.
