Clear, grounded, kind presence. With her strategic light to medium touch with rhythm and her intuitive touch I could feel unwinding tension in parts of the body she's not even touching Thanks for this experience. I'm planning to do this for myself once a month
I’ve spent the last decade doing ‘the work’ whatever exactly that means… counseling, therapy, journaling, breakthroughs, aha moments, questioning reality, frustrations… all of it. And while that work absolutely changed my life in a profound way, I hit a wall about five years ago. A frustrating one. Because no matter how much I processed or understood, my body still held it. The body really does keep the score. Even after understanding my brain, my nervous system, I still believed I could out-think it. I figured if I just did enough mindset work, I could ‘fix it’.
Oh sweet girl… if only. This is why growth is not linear. It is not perfect. It is...read full review
I've spent the last decade doing 'the work' whatever exactly that means... counseling, therapy, journaling, breakthroughs, aha moments, questioning reality, frustrations... all of it. And while that work absolutely changed my life in a profound way, I hit a wall about five years ago. A frustrating one. Because no matter how much I processed or understood, my body still held it. The body really does keep the score. Even after understanding my brain, my nervous system, I still believed I could out-think it. I figured if I just did enough mindset work, I could 'fix it'. Oh sweet girl... if only. This is why growth is not linear. It is not perfect. It is like an onion. Oh me oh my- the layers! This past September, I was taking meds multiple times a week for headaches, invested in a mouth guard thinking maybe I was grinding my teeth, questioning all that could be 'wrong' or fixable and still--my hips were locked, my jaw ached, my temples throbbed, and my neck felt like it was fused. That's when I found Melissa. And the rest is history. We've been working together consistently since then - weekly to start, then bi-weekly, and she's truly been one of the greatest gifts in my life this past year. Her ability to read what my body needs--especially when I don't have the words--is unreal. It's hard to explain how deeply grateful I am for the safe space she creates, the insight she offers, and the way she helps me unlock what I didn't even realize I was holding. Since working with her, I've gone from taking meds for tension headaches multiple times a week sometimes daily - my husband teasing with concern that I was addicted to extra strength tylenol. Now I might get a headache maybe once a month. And when I do, it's mostly cycle-related, not constant pressure and pain and ache. I was blaming blue light and screens, and there was wayyy more going on there than I realized. Deep rooted tension and healing. This work with Melissa is trickling into every part of my life, all arenas. And while she always takes the time to talk with me - before and after my session, conversation I look so forward to every visit as she always holds space for the mental side... it's the bodywork that was the next level I needed. As much as we want to "think" our way through what the body remembers... sometimes one modality isn't enough. You are worthy of exploring what feels aligned for you. Whether that's breathwork, somatic work, massage therapy, or something else entirely--try. Get curious. There is no one like Melissa - and I've had my fair share of massages prior to finding her. I'm deeply grateful I found her when I did - all just because a simple search by location brought me to her webpage. Your body has been holding a lot. It's time to help it let go. I hope you'll give yourself permission to reach out to Melissa. It is for certain one of the best decisions I've ever made.
