Our Story
About
Trefo Nutrition focuses on whole person nourishment. In fact, "trefo" is the ancient Greek work meaning "to nourish." Of course we are passionate about food and all it can do for the body, but we also know that nourishment isn't just about the foods we eat - it's about how we move our bodies, how we interact with the world around us, how we manage the daily stressors of life, and how we choose to love ourselves. Our mental health and our physical health are not separate and we help you find the balance that works best for you and your wellness goals.
​
We offer virtual, trauma-informed nutrition counseling with a registered dietitian. We are based in Watertown, MA outside of Boston.
