“Melissa is a gifted practitioner, I’ve been to several acupuncturists over the years and she is hands down, my favorite. She is very knowledgeable at her craft, and has a very calming presence”

“I started seeing Melissa about 10 years ago and she completely turned my health around. She worked on (and succeeded in improving) strengthening my immune system, stress management, hormonal balancing, and back/shoulder pain. The combination of of acupuncture, bodywork, aromatherapy, and infrared light therapy, etc….makes Melissa a super well rounded healer. All this in addition to her empathetic, genuine and gentle nature. Highly recommend Tree of Life!”

“Melissa is wonderful. I was nervous coming in, never having done acupuncture. Her calm and easy going manner helped me to relax. I walked in nervous and left smiling and relaxed”

“I first started working with Melissa when I was trying to get pregnant. Her acupuncture treatments made my cycle textbook perfect, which made successful conception easy! Melissa has an incredibly calming vibe. I always feel completely comfortable and grounded in her presence. Recently, I experienced her skill at reiki and reading energy. I was so impressed at her abilities in the field. Finally, I invited Melissa to be a guest speaker on my podcast because of her wealth of knowledge about Chinese medicine and nutrition is so broad. I highly recommend signing up for an appointment with her.”

The most relaxing acupuncture I’ve ever received. Melissa has the touch. I’m pregnant and haven’t been sleeping well. Last night I fell asleep easily and slept the entire night. Highly recommend!

10 stars! I can't say enough good things about Melissa! She is extremely knowledgeable. Her treatments are intentional and thorough. She's personable and easy to talk to. I look forward to every visit with her. Choosing her as my acupuncturist was the best decision I've made for my baby and I 💛

I've had an amazing experience with Melissa! From the very first session, I felt truly cared for and understood. Their approach is both professional and deeply compassionate, and the treatments have made a noticeable difference in my overall well-being. Whether you're dealing with pain, stress, or just looking to improve your health, I highly recommend them. Truly one of the best healthcare experiences I've had!

I always say Melissa “got me pregnant and kept me pregnant.” I saw her for fertility issues and IVF support. I love working with her! She’s so knowledgeable and has helped me with so many things (including helping my milk come in). I recommend to anyone that is looking for an acupuncturist. Can’t speak highly enough about her!

Melissa does a fantastic job, and Tree of Life acupuncture is a wellness gem here in Bend! I wish I had given acupuncture a try years ago. I went to see Melissa for some persistent shoulder pain and trigger points around my shoulder blade, and after a few visits, I was able to break some plateaus in the gym with zero shoulder pain. I wholeheartedly recommend visiting Tree of Life acupuncture; you will be happy you did!

Melissa is a lovely human and pours her heart into her sessions. She really cares about her clients and gives outstanding care. After just one session I felt a dramatic shift in a persistent tailbone pain I had had for over a year. I’m looking forward to getting back on her table. Thanks Melissa!

Melissa is so amazing and one of the few acupuncturists I'll go to because of how gentle she is. She has helped manage my chronic migraines through my last pregnancy and postpartum time. I look forward to every visit, it has helped calm my nervous system and given me a soft healing space. I love that she blends so many healing techniques like herbs, cupping, gua sha, and guided meditation. The meditations helped bring so much peace during my pregnancy.

If you are looking for a knowledgeable holistic provider in a private and serene space, this is it. Melissa is a wonderful provider who provided comfort when I received acupuncture to help with a very specific condition. She has extensive experience and was able to confidently treat me and hold space for me. Highly recommend!
