Client Stories
I never thought I would be able to eat normally again. Just eating, I didn’t want to because EVERYTHING made my stomach hurt. After working with Melissa, I ate sausage (something I could have NEVER handled before) and my stomach is fine. I’ve lost 35# so far by just eliminating the inflammation in my body, working on my mindset, rebuilding my gut microbiome. I feel better than I did in HIGH SCHOOL! Thank you so much for how you have helped me!
-T.E. Bozeman MT, lifelong acid reflux, RA, Anxiety
When we started this journey together, I had no idea how much my body would heal. Thank you for helping me learn how to nourish my body. I just got to do what I didn't think was possible to dance with my husband again.
-J.C. Bozeman, MT, Multiple Sclerosis
No Stomach problems! I just got my reports back and there is no swelling in my stomach or intestinal tract. Thank you for giving me my life back.
-D.M. Pony, MT Gastroperisis, IBS
This is the first time since I was a child that I can eat without being doubled over in pain. And I know what causes this for me! I don't dread eating! My energy and thinking capacity is so much better. My joint pain is nearly gone. Thank you!
-A.D. Missoula, MT, Severe food sensitivities, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis
I've had MS so long that I didn't think my body could improve. The pain is less, I am more mobile, my stomach issues are GONE, my thinking capacity is much better, and my hands that have been numb for so long now have some feeling coming back. I'm going to keep supporting my body like you taught me.
-P. J. Alzada, MT Multiple Sclerosis, High Blood Pressure
My pain has decreased so much! Because my energy is returning, I have started my own business and am teaching music to clients in my basement. My stomach is at ease. When it's not, I know why and what to do to help myself. I've learned to speak my truth to those around me. My life has blossomed because of you. Every day I see new improvement. The future is exciting now!
-J. O. Wheatland, WY Fibromyalgia, Arthritis, Hypothyroid, Diabetes Myelitis.
The teacher just called and asked what we are doing with my daughter. She has settled down so much in class and is absorbing the class work. Finding her food sensitives has allowed her to have better control of her ADHD.
-S.S. Harrison, MT ADHD
My at risk Pregnancy Doctor just gave me the green light! My symptoms are still gone and I'm feeling better each day. I get the chance to try for a baby again. Thank you for teaching me how to nourish my body with intention.
-J.P. Bozeman, MT Degenerative muscle disease
Wow, we figured out what was making my stomach hurt ALL the time and what was causing constant diarrhea. I can go to yoga class again and not worry about running to the bathroom! It was so simple. Thank you!
-L.W. Bozeman, MT, IBS, Gastrointestinal distress
I didn't think there was anything I could do about my constant body pain, anxiety and chronic fatigue. After working with Melissa, I don't have any body pain, my anxiety has lessened dramatically and I have learned how to relax and play again. I'm taking time for myself and to enjoy my kids again. The fatigue that dogged me daily has lifted and I have energy like I haven't had for years!
-C.L New York, Rheumatoid Arthritis, IBS
I feel like I'm in my 30's again! I've lost 25 lbs, my knees down hurt and I've started jogging again (something I didn't think was possible!) And I know how to maintain this lifestyle with ease.
-N.D Texas, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome
The last three months have been a whirlwind. I've handled it with calm (not the old me!), energy and clarity. It's been tough but I've been healing as life's been happening! My hands don't hurt, my brain fog is gone and I'm not stumbling over words. My anxiety is no-existent, my stomach is calm. My husband is happy to have his wife back. I'm able to care for my kids and my dad as I wanted to, but wasn't doing well at. Life is good.
-K.G Texas, now Oklahoma, Lupus, Anxiety
Melissa is patient, insightful, well-informed, and personable. She meets individuals where they are at and guides reasonable areas of growth, celebrating small gains, and inspiring ongoing commitment. I highly recommend her as a positive change-maker, devoted to fostering each person's healthier self.
