"Awareness Solves Half of Your Life's Problems" - Tia Maria 164 | Integrative Nutritionist Gut Hormone Specialist.

Tia is a double-certified Integrative Nutritionist specialised in Gut and Hormone Health. Her journey into wellness began early, shaped by watching her mother bravely battle breast cancer twice and her father navigate his own health challenges.

These experiences sparked a deep curiosity about how the body and mind work together to create balance, vitality, and true well-being. A year and a half ago Tia founded TMD Wellness alongside her social media platforms to share her passion for integrative health and inspire a growing community committed to well-being.

Through an integrative and holistic approach, Tia’s mission is to empower you at every stage of your journey whether your goal is to optimize your health, cultivate sustainable habits, or restore your health from within.
