Melissa Wecker

Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine

About Melissa

Born in Rwanda and raised in Canada and the United States, Melissa grew up in a health-focused family — a third-generation vegetarian surrounded by doctors and medical professionals. Despite this healthy upbringing, she struggled for more than 25 years with pain, chronic fatigue, brain fog, depression, and anxiety. The turning point came when she discovered NAET, a technique rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and experienced firsthand the profound impact it could have.

That experience set Melissa on a path of deep study. She completed her Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine training at the Canadian Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Calgary, followed by a clinical internship at Mianyang Teaching Hospital in China. Her education continued with BodyTalk, Accunect, NET, Functional Medicine, and Root Cause Protocol. Through these healing modalities, her own pain, depression, and anxiety slowly disappeared — and she became passionate about helping others find the same relief.

In practice, Melissa is dedicated to blending ancient wisdom with modern science to uncover root causes rather than simply treating symptoms. She sees herself as both a partner and a guide in each patient's healing journey, listening deeply to their whole story before crafting a treatment plan. Her offerings include acupuncture, NAET, botanical medicine, and nutritional coaching.

Melissa's life experiences have given her a uniquely global perspective. She has traveled extensively and participated in health education programs in Egypt, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Burma, and Albania. She lived in the United Kingdom for four years, where she earned her MSc in Management from Lancashire University and a BA Hons from Newbold College.

When she is not in the clinic, Melissa finds her zen in tea, early mornings in her greenhouse, hiking, and walking commutes.
