Melanie is passionate about helping her patients feel a sense of ease, comfort and rejuvenation in the body and mind. Through acupuncture and massage, her goal is to support the body’s innate healing capacity. She believes that harmony between our physical, mental/emotional and spiritual selves is pivotal towards holistic health. Melanie has personally experienced, and has worked with many clients who have expressed dis~ease (ie. chronic low back pain, migraines, menstrual difficulties, digestive discomfort, etc) when one of these aspects is out of alignment.

She aims to facilitate systemic balancing with the aid of acupuncture, cupping, massage, diet therapy and rehabilitative exercises. By addressing the underlying causes of disease (not just an isolated set of symptoms), Melanie takes an individualistic ‘whole-person’ approach to healing. This helps in both prevention and management of symptoms, and allows you feel the changes within your system.

Through acupuncture, Melanie guides ‘qi’ to replenish energy, clear stagnation, reduce pain and gain optimal function. Through massage, her aim is to create embodiment and a sense of being held, so that your intelligent nervous system can unwind and resource. Creating a safe container where you are involved in the treatment plan and process is important to her, as is patient education and functional awareness. Melanie wants you to feel empowered and included in your healing journey.

Along with being an RMT and R.Ac, she practices Somatics, Yoga and Qi Gong. She is an avid adventurer and lover of movement. You will find her in the mountains hiking and snowboarding, at sea surfing, enjoying river swims, or at home gardening, cooking, reading, dancing & singing.

Melanie is a believer that we all deserve to feel at home in our bodies and in our lives. ‘Coming home’ to yourself can create a sense of wellbeing and awareness that contributes to leading an aligned, peaceful life. This is an ongoing process through life’s twists and turns, and she is here to support you on your journey of wellbeing.

Melanie is grateful to continue to explore and share the ancient art/science of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which allows us to further understand the mind-body-spirit connection.

Erin is a lifelong seeker who finally found “home” the moment she discovered somatics, nervous system regulation, gentle movement, and yoga. That spark lit a 20-year journey through kinesiology, cardiac rehabilitation, positive psychology, and deep somatic training. But the real teacher has been life itself: raising young children, caring for a live-in elder, walking beside her father through Alzheimer’s, and learning to soothe her own anxiety with breath and body. Those seasons stretched, pulled and have shown her how powerfully the body can heal when it finally feels safe. Today, her greatest joy is creating that same safety for you. In her sessions you’ll be met with warmth, zero rush, and a soft place to land. She uses slow, choice-rich movement, restorative yoga, breathwork, crystal-bowl sound healing, and simple nervous-system tools to help you unwind years of stored stress and remember who you are underneath the exhaustion. She loves working with tired, big-hearted adults (especially women) who are ready to move from burnout and self-doubt into quiet confidence, restful sleep, and a body that finally feels like an ally. You’ll walk away lighter, steadier, and carrying gentle daily practices that actually stick. Clients often leave saying, “I feel like me again—like I’ve come home to myself.” If that sounds like the relief you’ve been craving, she’d love to meet you. Book a complimentary 20-minute discovery call and let’s see how it feels to breathe a little easier—together.
