Get to know Naturopathic Physician Dr. Lisa Matejka, who serves patients in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Recognized as a caring and compassionate naturopathic physician, Dr. Matejka’s journey into the world of holistic healing began as a deeply personal quest for answers and solutions when faced with the daunting diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in her father. Fueled by a profound sense of purpose and a desire to explore beyond the conventional medical paradigm, she embarked on a transformative journey that would ultimately shape her professional path and philosophy of care.

Educationally, the decision to pursue a doctoral program at the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, Oregon, was not merely an academic pursuit but a soul-searching endeavor driven by a relentless pursuit of knowledge and a commitment to making a difference in the lives of those grappling with serious illness. During her tenure at NUNM, she immersed herself in rigorous academic studies, blending the principles of naturopathic medicine with the latest advancements in integrative oncology research.

At the heart of her academic pursuits lay a passion for exploring the healing potential of herbal medicine in the context of cancer care. Her work at the Helfgott Research Institute allowed her to design and implement groundbreaking clinical trials, shedding light on the synergistic relationship between botanical remedies and conventional cancer treatments. Through meticulous research and hands-on clinical experience, she gained invaluable insights into the nuanced interplay between natural therapies and the complex mechanisms of disease.

Recognizing the multifaceted nature of healing and the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, Dr. Matejka embarked on a journey of personal, professional and spiritual growth, expanding her skill set to encompass a diverse array of holistic modalities. Her certifications as an Usui Reiki Master and Holy Fire® Reiki Master, coupled with training in Vibrational Sound Therapy, Emotion Code, Body Code, Pranic Healing, Thought Field Therapy and now life coaching, attests to her unwavering commitment to providing comprehensive and compassionate care.

By integrating these modalities into her practice, she seeks to address the underlying imbalances that contribute to illness, empowering patients to embark on their own journey of self-discovery and empowered healing.

Now based in the serene coastal town of Daytona Beach, Florida, Dr. Matejka continues to push the boundaries of integrative medicine, harnessing the power of technology to bridge geographical divides and extend her healing reach. Through telemedicine consultations and the utilization of cutting-edge therapeutic machines like the Thera Wellness device, she remains steadfast in her mission to offer accessible, evidence-based care to patients near and far.

Continuously advancing her efforts, she is a proud member of the Oncology Association of Naturopathic Physicians, the Society for Integrative Oncology, the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians, the Oregon Association of Naturopathic Physicians, the Florida Naturopathic Physicians Association, the International Center for Reiki Research, the Pranic Healing Research Institute, the United States Psychotronics Association, and the Global Information Network.

In her free time, Dr. Matejka enjoys swimming in the ocean, walking on the beach with her partner, spending time with her friends, practicing yoga, working out, and making YouTube and Rumble videos. She also loves live music, festivals, magick and unicorns, vampire movies, arts and crafts, and is currently working on fulfilling her dream of creating a high vibrational overnight retreat center for cancer patients.
