What Our Clients Are Saying
“I have been seeing Melissa Alverson for the last 5 years. She is tenacious with discovering the cause of pain or dysfunction in the body and making it better. I have made substantial strides in improving my overall health during this time because of her ability to figure out which muscle groups are not firing appropriately, what might be compensating for something else and fixing it like magic! I appreciate her wholistic approach to wellness and respect her commitment to continuous learning. When Melissa shares a product to aid in healing – I know she has researched it thoroughly, tried in on herself and can recommend it wholeheartedly. She is caring, curious, energetic and thoughtful. As someone who is late to everything, I look forward to my monthly maintenance appointment with Melissa. I hate to say it’s the only thing I am ever on time for, but it’s the truth - I would never miss it!”

Melissa has helped me so much with my chronic pain issues. She knows more about the musculoskeletal system than anyone I know, and continuously updates her knowledge base with additional training and certifications. Her treatment is always provided in a kind and caring manner, and she supplements the treatment with home exercises which help accelerate the healing process. As a result of seeing her I have achieved an 80% improvement in my pain. I would highly recommend her to anyone suffering from acute or chronic pain!
