Katia Demekhina is one of the first UK-trained Nutritional Therapists to practice in Hong Kong. A hormonal health specialist relieving menstrual problems like symptoms of PMS and more, she guides women to reclaim control of their bodies and emotions.
Katia also helps women and their partners on their journey to parenthood, throughout pregnancy and during the post-natal period.
In addition, Katia works with clients to optimize their nutrition to help achieve various goals such as improved energy, enhanced athletic performance and recovery, weight loss, as well as optimizing diets for clients’ DNA profiling.
Have you ever experienced a complete burnout, debilitating anxiety, fatigue, bloating or PMS with no medical explanation for your feelings? Katia did too, and by turning to nutritional therapy she now feels better in her forties than she did in her twenties.
In her practice, Katia utilises a functional medicine approach to health. Functional medicine views the body as an interconnected web-like structure of different systems and functions. Imbalances within these systems can manifest as symptoms or illnesses. By spending time listening to the client and gathering their history, Katia helps identify such root causes of ill-health as nutrition, genetic or acquired predisposition, environmental factors, and behavioural and psychological influences. She then customises a personalised plan to diet, lifestyle and supplements to help your body achieve and maintain optimal health. Katia also uses neuro-linguistic programming techniques to help clients build new habits and an environment that reinforce their healthy future.
