I have been seeing Melissa at WomanCare Fertility and Wellness for about a year now with weekly appointments since trying to conceive and I credit her for my healthy and viable pregnancy, as well as optimal positioning of baby and a smooth delivery. Her knowledge and expertise in acupuncture are unparalleled, but what sets her apart is how she goes beyond just treatments—she offers personalized advice on herbs, supplements, and lifestyle changes, which have made a huge difference for me.Initially, I hesitated to go to her because other practitioners accepted my insurance while she doesnt, but the level of care Melissa provides is worth every penny out of pocket. No one else even came close to delivering the results I’ve experienced with her.Melissa is not only highly skilled but genuinely cares about her patients. She checks in regularly, offers honest insights based on what has worked for her and her clients, and makes the whole process feel transparent and supportive.I wholeheartedly recommend Melissa to any woman looking to improve her health, balance hormones, or who is on a journey toward motherhood. You won’t find anyone more dedicated to your well-being.
I’ve been a patient of Melissa’s for over two years now. She helped me when western medicine couldn’t. Not only did she rid me of chronic pain, but she also supported me during my pregnancy and now postpartum journey. I always feel relaxed, supported, and healed after an appointment. I would highly recommend her!
Yes we are all getting older and no it isn’t a lot of fun when your thumbs and wrists get arthritis. I was wearing wrist and thumb braces and still had a lot of pain. I had no interest in taking drugs to cover symptoms so decided to try acupuncture. One as in just one session with Melissa and I have been totally pain free for over a year now. Signed a dedicated fan of acupuncture and of course Melissa who I can’t recommend highly enough.
I was suffering for about 3 years from horrible hormonal problems and I had not found someone that could help me until i found this amazing clinic. Melissa is very knowledgeable about Chinese herbal medicine. She gave me a herbal treatment for my hormonal problems, and this has changed my life positively. My problems have improved drastically. I feel very good and finally I dont suffer like before. I definitely recommend it 100%. She is amazing!
After being a bit skeptical of Chinese herbal medicine, I heard from a couple friends that they tried it and it helped them get pregnant. Melissa gave me a plan that was easy to follow and was so helpful every step of the way with all my questions! Another thing holding me back previously was the assumption that this is an expensive thing to do and I found it to be very reasonable and affordable to work into my budget. I also found it interesting that there are more women’s health concerns that Melissa can assist with aside from just fertility, I will certainly go back whenever I need to!
Melissa is wonderful, knowledgeable , kind and helpful. She is an expert in her field!Im not always consistent with the visits which is important, but whenever I go I feel 100% better than when I came in. No matter which direction my medical journey takes I am going to try and keep acupuncture in my routine for adjunctive therapy and balancing.
Melissa is a very accurate, kind, knowledgeable, helpful and sensitive health care professional. I have been working with her for approximately 2 years on a twice monthly basis. Some times it is more depending upon my need. She is easy to talk to, accommodating with appointments and extremely empathetic. Getting Accupuncture treatments with her are affordable and extremely important to improve my health. I have chronic issues with my back and skin. I highly recommend her to people who need help with any health care issue.
I came to see Melissa with a autoimmune chronic problem, I needed help so badly because it was so out of control, I took a few visits but we manage to control it with acupuncture and herbs. Melissa helped me also realize the importance of what I put in my body always explaining procedure. I went through a rough time but Melissa gave me hope I would get better, she been such a great impact to me that 6 of my family members including a little one that only takes herbs for the moment comes to see her. Im so happy to have found her and so thankful for the help shes given me and my family. If you are lookin for a good acupuncturist with high expectations of real help, you have to come and see Melissa because shes the real thing, Ive never meet someone so darn good at what they do like her, and the thing is I can afford her because shes super reasonable from her herbs to her acupuncture. her facility is so clean and so welcoming that you always feel relaxed..My family and I will continue to come to her because we see Melissa not only as a professional that she is! but a caring individual that truly cares for our concerns.
Amazing! Melissas expertise addressed my health issue with gentle healing. Her knowledge, skill and care are excellent. This was my first experience with acupuncture and Im a believer! Highly recommend!
If it werent for Acupuncture only two sessions, my shoulder would not have healed as well as it did. It has been over a year and feeling strong. Melissa is so compassionate and a gifted Healer. Highly recommend !!!
Melissa is truly helpful and attentive to her patients needs. Ive been seeing her for 3/4 years now as she has been helping me with my daily migraines. All I know is I feel better when I depart her office than when I arrive. If Accupuncture can help your ailment I would strongly recommend you see Melissa.
Beyond exceptional!! Melissa is a master of her craft and a wonderful human being. She not only helped make my first acupuncture experience fantastic but she also helped me with my pregnancy complications. She goes above and beyond for her clients and I will not be going anywhere else in Florida!
If youre anything like me for years youve been saying I always wanted to try acupuncture...I wonder if it works...I dont think I can afford it. Today is the day ....YES, it works... and Bradenton Community Acupuncture works on a sliding scale (for as little as $25 a visit what do you have to lose). Melissa has changed my life! I know that sounds dramatic, but its true. Ive been living with MS for 34 years. I came to Melissa almost 2 years ago with a breathing problem, but I never imagined the multitude of issues (TMI on the issues) that acupuncture would be helping me with today. My only advise, other than schedule your appointment today, is to give it a little time. It may take one visit or it may take several. It probably took time for the issue you have to develope ...why not give it the same time to fix. My only disappointment is that I waited so long to give it try. If you give Melissa 100 percent effort...she will give you the same in return...shes awesome!
Melissa is wonderful and friendly. I was not sure how effective acupuncture really was until I experienced i f for myself. The atmosphere is relaxing, tranquil, and therapeutic. Very affordable - thats important! 💱🐘🍃
Under Melissas care, not only have we managed to sustain a pregnancy, but the overall my symptoms have been generally mild. I feel that each session targets any specific needs my system throws at me and helps me maintain a balanced and relaxed home for baby to develop. Anyone looking for either that extra nudge to help with fertility or even just feel better throughout a pregnancy should see Melissa.
I have been going to Melissa for years. I am not always consistent but when I go, I come out feeling like a million bucks. I recently did my breast thermography with her and I felt comfortable and relaxed. I did have something come back that was questionable and of concern and we discussed what to do. She recommended going for an ultrasound. . I am into Natural Health and although I eat pretty healthy, I decided I needed to change some things and see if that would help. I told her I would come back in 3 months for another thermography. 3 months turned into 5 and I returned. Getting rid of the sugar and all things white turned my questionable and of concern into see you next year. Melissa is a great healer :-)
About a year ago I started visiting Melissa at Bradenton Family Wellness Center by advice from a friend. I was having problems with spasms in my shins while walking. Previously i had visited a vascular specialist, a sports medicine clinic, and my regular family physician. All of whom seemed to be baffled by this condition. Melissa suggested we try a few acupuncture sessions in this area and others. I was a little apprehensive and skeptical, but i figured what the heck, what do i have to lose ? Well let me tell you, this procedure not only worked, but was more relaxing and restful than a massage. I was amazed. I have been back a few times, but the spasms in my shins have completely disappeared. Thanks again for opening my eyes to this procedure !
High quality care at affordable cost. Melissa is very knowledgeable, caring and friendly. Bradenton Community Acupuncture lives up to its name and makes you feel like you are part of a community or family while delivering the very highest quality of care. Definitely recommend.
Melissa is a wonderful acupuncturist. She is truly caring and listens to your concerns before treatment. Highly recommend her!
I am so glad my wife and I found this place. Melissa is so friendly and knowledgeable, not to mention how she definitely cares about you as a patient. She spends the time getting to know you and why you are there.Highly recommend Melissa and Bradenton Community Acupuncture!
Im such a believer in Acupuncture and had such an amazing experience here that i tell folks about her every chance i get! Get ready Melissa, sending you another one!

Friendly, professional, affordable, and effective - what else can you ask for?
