Hi! I’m Melissa!

In 2007, I had an awakening. At the time, I was a family medicine physician, and I had no framework for understanding the connections I was experiencing between the mind, emotions, and the body.

This led me on a personal and professional healing journey into Chinese Medicine and Medical Qigong. As I began learning the wisdom of Chinese Medicine, I became conscious that the function of all our organs are interconnected with every tissue and cell in our bodies. The function of every organ system is directly impacted by emotions and the elements of Nature. What I realized through this practice is that the body, mind and Spirit are an integrated whole.

In my programs, I weave this ancient wisdom with my experience as a western physician. This foundation comes alive through my ongoing real-life integration of this wisdom, which I openly share to empower your healing journey.

Beyond

After a 13-year immersion in Chinese Medicine and Qigong, I was called to dissolve the structure of my acupuncture and teaching practice on 2/14/2022.

The message I received was “Create Space.”  As I cleared space, a new message arose through the awakening of my Spirit’s creativity.
