As a foster parent Lise Banks, owner and operator of Helping Hands Lice Support has struggled with children coming into her home with lice. After becoming overwhelmed with toxic conventional cleaning and removal techniques, Lise discovered the Shepherd Institute and found out there was a better way.
Lise trained with leading expert Katie Shepherd in her world renowned research facility and school The Shepherd Institute in Nashville, Tennessee to become certified in The Shepherd Method™ of Strand by Strand Nit Removal.
The Shepherd Method™ is a time-tested and proven effective means of treating once and monitoring afterward. While combing is a vital tool within the process, it is the methodical approach that ensures all hair has been examined, and all lice and nits have been removed. It also builds in several safety checks ensuring that when clients has completed our treatment, we have done everything possible to ensure they are lice and nit-free.
The Shepherd Method™ is based on a treat once and treat right mentality that eliminates the need for multiple, as well as needless, treatments.
The Shepherd Institute was founded in 2004, as more and more individuals wanted to be trained in Lice Solutions’ unique method of Lice and Nit removal. The institute focuses on training individuals in lice removal and educating them on the most up-to-date and accurate “facts of lice”, debunking the myths that are commonly found on the internet.
