REVIEWS for my massage services

by Mary Anne on Aug 12
Melissa is a revelation! She not only works with my physical anatomy but is gifted in inner "sight", and intuitively connects with bone, tissue, and energy as a felt sense energetically. This goes beyond working just in the physical language but also within the emotional and energetic realms. Melissa spoke of my right hip bone as " cold" and this one is where I have pretty regular "aching". She also wondered whether getting an x-ray may be useful which she posited as a question to ponder, not a command. The hips are also about creativity and moving forward. Louise Hay would say the hips carry fear of moving forward in a major way and feeling stuck. All this, and I am looking at lots of different decisions right now. And hips is where Melissa started. Need I say more to example how Melissa "knows" where to go! I am so grateful that me and my body and energetic field get to work with Melissa!
