About me
Authorized skin therapist
Certified Health Coach & nutritional therapist
In 2009 I visited Okinawa in Japan, and looked up the village of Ogimi Village where I knew many 100 year olds lived healthy. I was lucky enough to meet Ushi Okushima, 108, and her family. I was invited to their home. 5 generations of women were there with me that day.
I love being at a health home. I have been several times to Masesgården and Tallmogården. I have been at the Hippocrates Health Institute, today Hippocrates Wellness, in Florida, 7 years in a row, on their 3 week Life Transformation program. A total of 21 weeks = 5 months and 1 week of total detox and rebuilding of the whole me/my body/my cells!
I will continue to go to Hippocrates Wellness as soon as I have the opportunity, if only for a few days!
I am a proud ambassador for this fantastic health paradise!
I inspire doctors to come with me to Dr Days to learn about the lifestyle and bring it into their practice and for their patients and family members.
I want to inspire healthy lifestyles. That people have responsibility for their health and a belief in their own vitality. I want to contribute to changing healthcare to healthy care. Change the future to the laws of nature, the way it was always intended.
I'm passionate about Longevity! To live healthy, long!
In Okinawa, Japan there is a saying: "at 70 you are a child, at 80 you are young, and if at 90 you are invited to heaven, say: get out of here and come back when I am 100".
Thanks to my mom and dad who inspired me in my health choices. And my grandmother, who in the 1940s went to a rest home.
Thank you Ingeborg!
I am a trained Cidesco skin therapist, certified nutritional therapist and registered naturopath in the Swedish Naturopathic Association SNLF.
In 2024 I will celebrate 40 years as a skin therapist! I provide classic, meticulous skin and body treatments.
As a nutritional therapist and naturopath, my mission is to spread awareness and knowledge about our own bodies and health and provide support and steps on how to go about living a healthier life!
I guide how we can strengthen and support our self-regenerating and self-healing body with lifestyle changes. How we can prevent illness and suffering, how we can provide our body with the right building materials.
My name is Monica. Born and raised in Stockholm.
In 1984 I trained as a skin therapist at the private school Beauty Therapist School on Tegnergatan in Stockholm. On graduation day I was asked by the then well-known skin therapist in Östermalm, Yvonne Knobel at Lady Salongen, to work at her salon. I worked there for 1 year. I then started my own business, and hired myself out to salons in Stockholm.
From 1996 I ran my own skincare salon for 21 years. During the 90s I saw a change in some of my clients; they were more sick, overweight, and taking harmful medications.
In 2007, a letter came to my salon that said; "Train as a Naturopathic Doctor." I immediately felt that was my mission on earth! I took the plunge and trained as a nutritional therapist & herbalist. I also studied basic medicine.
In 2010 I became a registered Naturopathic Physician (SNLF). I linked skincare with nutritional medicine and health/diseases.
Today I offer my services via home visits, online, phone, businesses, and provide skin and body treatments at hotels.
