about me
I'm Marta, dietician-nutritionist. The human body has always seemed fascinating to me. When you start studying it you are amazed at how complex and perfect it is. And that is why I decided to study Nutrition and Dietetics, since it was a way to work in the field of health.
Since I finished my studies at university, I was very clear that I wanted to dedicate myself to consulting with patients to help them and accompany them in their health improvement goals. With time and experience I realized that nutrition, as I had been taught, was not enough. There had to be something more, since many patients with digestive symptoms did not improve and I felt that I lacked tools and knowledge.
Little by little, I was taking courses with a more integrative vision of health, where they placed special emphasis on the importance of our emotions and habits, and how these can influence our state of health.
Finally, I discovered Psychoneuroimmunology and it changed my world. It was a revolution both personal and pedagogical. Finally, some studies that contemplate and defend how related all our systems are: digestive, immune, neurological, nervous, etc.
It opened the doors for me to start treating patients in a much more integrative way. And it is because of this fascination with the human body that I continue to want to learn how we function and, above all, how to help care for and heal it.
