You're here because you want something different.
You're serious about addressing your bladder health & pelvic pain.
You want to feel confident about your body and your intimate life without worrying about pain.
You're done with the hormones, and you're thinking about getting pregnant at some point.
Your intuition tells you there has to be something else - something other than pills and procedures - to stop pelvic pain & get pregnant.
You want to discover the connection between your cycle health & your pelvic health so you can get pregnant more easily, prepare for the physical changes during birth, and smoothly transition into postpartum recovery.
Fortunately, that's exactly what I do! I've worked with hundreds of women to heal pelvic health issues from the root cause.

Holistic Fertility
Discover the connection between your menstrual cycle & your pelvic health
"Dr. Melissa was and continues to be such a supportive resource following my visits after birthing my son. I'm so grateful to her and the expertise she's gained in helping me get back to feeling like myself. The coolest thing she did was help me realize how my history of back pain and disc herniations impacted my pelvic floor long before trying to conceive. Highly recommend Melissa because she not only helped me fix my postpartum issues, but I've also been living without a flare up in my back since seeing her." - Allison
"She helped me realize how my history of back pain impacted my pelvic floor"
