concussion recovery

A new path

Concussions are scary, they leave people feeling confused and not sure which way to turn

Speak with someone who understands what you’re going through

Both my daughters were diagnosed with concussions and both paths to recovery were completely different.

My role is not a medical one, I do not give medical advice, instead I provide education and information to empower you to make the right decisions through your recovery process. If needed, I will also refer you to other practitioners to help you along this journey, check back in with you along the way, to keep you moving forward. I will help you understand the importance of:

Living in your “safe” zone, rather than your danger zone.
Pacing and planning your day, helping you give purpose to every day.
Mindfulness and it’s role in your recovery.
Nutrition and it’s role in helping your brain heal.
Natural cognitive support nutritional supplements to help mitigate symptoms and promote healing.
And I offer tips to help you cope after returning to work/school.

Meeting Melissa at Triangle Wellness was a real turning point for my partner and I. It was the first time that we truly felt as though someone else could truly relate to what we’ve been going through.

Melissa was able to support both my partner (the sufferer) and myself (the partner) as well as checking up on us several times after our appointment, it’s nice having someone care especially when we don’t have many friends or family in the country.

The science behind the concussion was explained to us in a way that we understood and the advice given has now put us on a better path that we could have got to by ourselves.

The service that Melissa is providing the community is invaluable. In a destination community where so many people are without the support of their families nearby, she offers that much-needed supportive approach that empowers the individual to be at the helm of their healing journey. Concussions are a very muddled subject, with a great deal of conflicting information. Her research has enabled her to offer up-to-date, thorough, helpful, and positivity-based advice towards an action plan of progress. This enables the individual to utilize proven methods to ensure an effective, encompassing, proactive recovery.

I learned so much from our session, even after seven months of recovery and information from several other specialists – about how the brain works and how it recovers.

I had just had a very discouraging relapse in symptoms 6 months post-concussions and after 4.5 months symptom free. She helped me understand what contributing factors made this possible, how to deal with those and avoid another such strong response, and gave me the hope that I now feel I am doing everything I can, vs a previous ‘am I better yet?’ wait-and-see approach.

If you or a loved one has suffered a concussion, I could not recommend a session with Melissa more!

I would like to thank you, Melissa for helping a good, old friend, Connie, that has been suffering from a concussion for a very long time. She has been very distraught as the pain has not subsided completely and she has too many bad days. Since taking your Mastermind, Connie told me that her life has improved immensely and that she’s feeling much better. She hadn’t been able to go back to her original work as a policewoman and now she’s back on the job!
