LisaFor the first time, I have been migraine free for 3 weeks now and I have cut down to seeing Mel every 2nd week.

Emily found every tight spot I had from my shoulders down to my hands and released it. I could feel the difference right away.

RachelI have seen both Mel and Emily for ongoing issues with my knees and they have both been great. I really appreciate their focus on my long term rehabilitation and not just a "quick fix".
CaitlinI am SO happy that I found Mel! My back was in so much pain and had tried physios, osteos and other avenues that had never even come close to helping like Mel already has.

AdamI've seen both Mel and Emily for my chronic back and shoulder pain that I've had since a surfing accident when I was a kid. I always leave feeling great, I love the cupping and dry needling it really helps with my pain.
EricaI have seen many, many massage therapists over the years and the relief I experienced after my session with Mel was unparalleled!
