Melisa’s journey into natural health began when she experienced improvements to her own health over 20 years ago after seeing a naturopath and physiotherapist at LifeForce health solutions (then The Village Physio). This was life-changing for her as it later inspired her to undertake formal education at the Endeavour College, studying western herbal medicine and naturopathy.

Melisa’s areas of interest embrace a broad range of men’s and women’s health (including fertility) issues, gastro-intestinal disturbances, childhood behavioural disorders, weight loss and auto-immune conditions such as Rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis and the auto-immune thyroid condition Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis.  Melisa is also the practice’s Metabolic Balance coach.
