Meet the Founder

Melissa is the Founder and CEO of Whole Body Health Team.

Realizing the importance of treating the whole body, Melissa pursued further education in Functional Nutrition Counselling, allowing her to help her clients on a whole new level.   Understanding that physical health and mental health are connected is KEY to unlocking true wellness.  She is a self-proclaimed “professional student”, having  taken numerous courses over the years in reflexology, aromatherapy, Body Talk, CBT, as well as being trained with Brene Brown in The Daring Way™.  She believes the vulnerability of living your life “in the arena” is hard, but the alternative is even harder.

Realizing the importance of nutrition and the connection of poor physical health with the mental health of her clients, Melissa pursued further education in Functional Nutrition Counseling, allowing her to help her clients on a whole new level. As a self-proclaimed “continuous student”, she has taken numerous courses over the years in reflexology, aromatherapy, Body Talk as well as being trained with Brene Brown in The Daring Way™. She believes the vulnerability of living your life “in the arena” is hard, but the alternative is even harder.

Melissa is married to her highschool sweetheart and they spent the last 20 years raising two busy boys in sports. They are passionate about baseball, especially the Toronto Blue Jays! Her favorite place in the world is their cottage in northern Ontario (Canada) where she goes seeking rest and rejuvenation.

Frustrated with prescriptions and medications that often do more damage, she became focused on creating something different.

Melissa is passionate about health & wellness and helping others. The dream of Whole Body Health Team came from years of frustration in watching and experiencing personally the inability to feel better and understand what is going on. Frustrated with prescriptions and medications that often do more damage, she became focused on creating something different. A place for healing, education and whole body wellness – finally & forever.

She believes wholeheartedly in listening, understanding, investigating and supporting. Our bodies are amazing communicators that we need to pay attention to.

We have one awesome life to live and we all deserve better care so we can live it fully.
