About

Hi There!

I am Dr. Mia, aka "the gutsy doctor", a modern integrative medicine practitioner & wellness expert.

I am so glad you are here! This platform was born out of my passion for simple & and sustainable wellness. To give you a high-level backstory, my holistic wellness journey began with my own health issues where I have dealt with my share of digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, anxiety, brain fog, and overwhelm.

Through my own journey, my medical training, and working with hundreds of individuals, one thing has always stood true - Optimal health does not have to be complicated and confusing. However, with so much information available with tons of diets, and nutrition advice, it's easy to get into the weeds of figuring out what is right and what is not.

When I took a deep dive into my healing journey, I started by making small intentional shifts. I initially turned to mindfulness to tackle my anxiety. This started a ripple effect for me and the next most important pillar that I tackled was nutrition. I took to nourishing my mind and body with the right foods & nutrients to help balance out the biochemical chaos happening in my system.

Simultaneously, I turned to yoga to help create a more meaningful mind-body connection. With the help of my natural medicine mentors, and a lot of education on gut, brain and hormonal health, I was able to kick my own gut & anxiety issues to the curb.

Over the years, I have created a holistic tool kit inclusive of nutrition, movement & mind-body techniques that help create alignment with your gut and your brain...your mind & body.

My mission is simple:

Credentials

I received my bachelor's in Biomedical Science and Biotechnology and completed my doctorate in Chiropractic (integrative) Medicine. I am certified in acupuncture, nutrition, registered as an experienced Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance, and continue to take countless post-graduate training in integrative medicine, movement therapy and nutrition. This includes expert training focused on gut health, brain health, autoimmune conditions, and hormonal health.

My goal here is to create a welcoming space for you to turn to as a resource on nutrition, wellness & and intentional living. Here you will find me sharing clinical pearls and nutrition nuggets to help support gut, brain, hormonal health, and overall wellness.

This is also a safe space for me to share my own evolving experiences with health & wellness. I am so glad you tuned in! I hope you enjoy your visit.

With love and light,
