About Dr. Linda Page Ph.D., Traditional NaturopathBack in the late 1970's, long before natural foods and herbal formulas became a widely accepted method for healing, Linda Page was sharing her extensive knowledge with those who dared to listen.Through what some would call a fateful accident, but Linda deems a blessing, she was faced with only one choice: to research alternative avenues of healing.

She read voraciously about herbal healing. Good friends helped her shop for herbs and she began to formulate the many compounds that would eventually save her life.Linda was astonished as she watched her body restore itsel back to life and wholeness, with skin and hair softer and more supple than ever before.
