I had seen four specialists about my digestion. Tumara was the first place that asked about my sleep, my work, and my meals together.
Our story
After a decade in general practice, Dr. Maren Hollis kept meeting patients whose results were called normal, yet who still did not feel well. What they needed was more time, and a team that actually talked to each other. Tumara began in 2014 as a two-room practice built on that single idea. Today six practitioners share one plan for every patient.

Our approach

Integrative care, delivered with patience
We combine functional nutrition, acupuncture, herbal medicine and mind-body therapy into one plan, built from a long first conversation and reviewed as your health changes.

Our approach
Every plan begins with a long first conversation. Nutrition, therapy, and daily habits are then shaped around what we learn about you.

What guides every plan
Four ideas shape how we work with every patient, from the first conversation to the last review.
Look for the root

We ask why a symptom appears before deciding how to ease it. Digestion, sleep, stress and energy are looked at together, because they rarely act alone.

Take the time

First appointments run 90 minutes and follow-ups are never squeezed. Time is what lets us hear the details a short visit misses.

One team, one plan

Nutritionists, acupuncturists and therapists review your case together, so every part of your care points in the same direction.

Guided by evidence

Traditional therapies are chosen with testing and current research in mind, and adjusted when your results change.

A clear path from first visit to feeling better
First visit
Tell us what is going on. A free 15-minute call helps us understand your concerns and whether we are the right clinic for you.
Full consultation
A 90-minute appointment covering your history, diet, sleep, stress and any recent test results.
Your written plan
You leave with a plain-language plan: what to change first, which therapies may help, and when we will review.
Treatment and review
Sessions begin, progress is tracked at every visit, and your plan is adjusted as your health changes.
No surprises: you know the fee for every session and test before your care begins.
We work with your doctor, not instead of them
Holistic care works best alongside medical care. Here is how we keep both connected.
Ask about our care
We never replace your doctor
Keep seeing your doctor. We complement medical care, never replace it.
We share what matters
With your consent, we send a summary of your plan to your doctor.
Safety comes first
Every herb and supplement is checked against the medication you already take.
We know when to refer
Symptoms that need medical attention go straight back to your doctor.
