I suspected that my long-term, low-grade muscle pain and "brain fog" (and other minor, lingering body and mind symptoms) might be down to a poor/inadequate diet. I had been to a dietician previously for help but had been given a generic diet, and they had little interest in my personal situation; so, this approach didnt work and I continued to "put up with" these symptoms for a long time. A friend recommended Tonina after having great success addressing her own health issues through changing her diet; so I decided to book in an appointment. Enter the lovely Tonina! 100% focused on me, listened intently to my issues and then uses her incredible knowledgeable to come up with an individualised plan. She spent the first hour listening and assessing my symptoms; and then gave me some suggestions to try straight away that would start me moving in the right direction. She then created an eating program specifically to address my issues and worked with me to "upgrade" what I was already doing so that I could make better choices that were easy to incorporate into my current lifestyle - all the while taking out the guess work. A couple of months later my brain fog has pretty much disappeared, the muscle pain (and therefore the pain medication) has completely gone (only comes back when I eat the foods that we discovered increase the inflammatory response in my body!) and I generally feel my body is now well nourished on a cellular level. I would highly recommend Tonina for her in-depth knowledge, her ability to create bespoke treatments and her kind and compassionate manner. Sue

Tonina was fantastic! She is incredibly knowledgeable and was able to create a suitable diet to best support my condition. She also took a great deal of time to educate me on my condition and how diet directly impacts it. She also sent me images of great staple products I could rely on and recipes to adopt. 100% recommend.

My biggest regret is not contacting Tonina sooner. After years of battling chronic health issues, weight gain, and a PCOS diagnosis I was at a loss. My days were filled with cramps, bloating, nausea and a general feeling of being unwell. I had doctors tell me that my symptoms would diminish if I lost weight, but no matter what I did, the weight didn't budge and despite their guidance my symptoms were not improving and my weight remained. Then I met Tonina. She spent time getting to know me, understanding my history and without delay began unpacking my symptoms. Tonina was able to identify a number of undiagnosed allergies that I was unknowingly living with and made recommended changes to my diet. Some 3 months later, I am living almost symptom free, and have lost 2kgs. I am not on a diet, I am just eating the right foods for my body and have never felt better. The thing I love the most is that unlike every doctor I have ever seen, Tonina has not focussed on my weight not once, but focussed on fueling my body with the right foods and I will be forever thankful for how her support has positively impacted my life.
