Education

Academically Jill excelled in Herbalism, Phytotherapy and Acupuncture.


Jill first graduated at the top of her class with a Diploma in the two-year Chartered Herbalism programme from the renown Dominion Herbal College in Vancouver: the oldest and most respected herbal institution in Canada. Many of the top minds in clinical herbalism are DHC alumni, such as Bernard Jensen, John Christopher, and Earl Mindel to name a few.
The prestigious College of Phytotherapy in London England was Jill’s next foray into her herbal career, graduating again at the top of the class in their four-year programme in Phytotherapy (clinical herbology). This afforded Jill a membership to the NIMH: National Institute of Medical Herbalists. This international institution enforces the highest standards of herbal medicine functions to ultimately support the interests of all qualified practitioners and their patients.
Rounding off her formal academic career, Jill attended the Alberta College of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (a Canadian affiliate of the Beijing University). Achieving a Diploma in their four-year program, she earned a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCMD) in Alberta. In BC, Jill has been a Licensed Acupuncturist since 2013.
