Wellness, Consultation & Pain Relief

About Me

Welcome to my site. I am a therapist with a wide range of skills and expertise. I am available for consultations and treatments for a wide range of issues and am a registered TMJ
specialist.

My journey into wellbeing began many years ago when I suffered from a bad back. I began to study what are known as ‘alternative therapies’ and soon realised I had found my passion!


This passion has led me into many areas of study over the years. There is simply nothing better than having the ability to help people ease pain and discomfort and boost their general health and wellbeing and I find the more skills I have gained the more I am able to help.

Every person who I see gets the benefit of the full range of my skills and knowledge. Every person gets a bespoke treatment which I can gear to their specific issues.

Some complaints are very specific – if you are suffering from the painful condition of TMJ please visit my TMJ page and I look forward to being able to help you.

Other complaints can be more vague and often long term. It is so important for me to be able to work with the person as a whole, and to find and release the root cause for any complaint or issue. So your treatment with me may include a combination of, for example, KORE Therapy, Myofascial Release, Acupuncture and Spinal Touch and Massage.

You won’t find many other practitioners with this range of skills, but this enables me to open my books to all, no matter what age, complaint or physique.

I am based in West Yorkshire and am available for in-person appointments or online consultations. You can book directly through this website or feel free to contact me directly if your needs are more specific.

All correspondence is of course fully confidential. I look forward to hearing from you!

Online Consultations / Treatments

I am always happy to hear from anyone and will do my best to help you if I can.

I am available for in-person appointments at my premises in Shipley, West Yorkshire. These can be booked here.

The cost is £. Per initial consultation and from £. Per hour following.

An online consultation means I can work with you no matter where you are in the world, and they can be surprisingly effective. I generally use zoom so you will require a decent webcam and internet connection. You can book your consultation here.

I charge £. Per consultation

If you would like to discuss your situation before booking you can contact me here.

"I would not have thought it possible to get a decent consultation and advice from someone without seeing them in person, but I booked a zoom with Melanie for me and my elderly dad who was suffering a mouth trauma. We don’t live close enough to visit easily. Mel was a big help. She obviously couldn’t help practically but she had some good suggestions and helped reduce the fear and panic. We were then able to follow her advice and she kept in touch until the problem was sorted. The whole family so appreciate her help."

Do you suffer from TMJ? Melanie can help…

What is TMJ?

If you are suffering with TMJ – Temporomandibular disorder – then you don’t need me to explain to you just how painful and debilitating this condition can be.

The disorder directly affects the jaw joint and the muscles that control jaw movement,
causing pain and reducing your ability to live normally and enjoy life. Many people struggle
to eat and speak and many report issues sleeping.

How Melanie Can Help?​

Although there can be many causes, the good news is this condition is usually temporary and responds well to treatment. My aim is to get you back to your old self as quickly as possible without the need for surgery. I will also work with you to reduce the risk of a repeat of the condition.

In many cases I can help with an online consultation so even if you are if not local to my base in West Yorkshire please don’t hesitate to get in touch – the sooner the better.

How to Book?

You can book a consultation here and contact me by telephone here.

If talking is a challenge, you can email me here.

What is Self-Myofascial Release?

This simple but powerful treatment can help ease tightness and pain from a wide range of
causes, and can be a longterm solution to sports injury.

What is SMFR?

Put very simply, the fascia is the connective tissue found beneath the skin that holds the body together.

SMFR is the release of tension and pain by gentle manipulation of the fascia.

It is a relaxing and powerful therapy that literally relaxes the fascia. During a treatment pressure is applied to areas of injury, known as trigger points. Foam rollers are generally used to massage the area.

How Melanie Can Help?

I offer a one-off treatment or a course to enable you to enjoy long term pain relief and good health. You don’t need a specific diagnosis – anyone can benefit from a session. I work with sports people, private clients, the very active and the not so active. The satisfaction of seeing a good recovery and client walking away pain free, is fantastic!
