EP 226: pelvic floor health, living in reality and actually FEELING stress.
Description
Dr. Melany Bates has walked many paths of healing, and each one has deepened her understanding of the body's innate intelligence. Chiropractic gives her the opportunity to weave together ancient wisdom and modern science — offering guidance, education, and powerful hands-on care to those seeking a more vital, connected life.
Her approach blends:
-
Deep listening and intuitive care
-
Gentle, nervous-system-based chiropractic
-
Coherent bodywork and breath awareness
-
Emotional, physical, and structural integration
She works with the neuromusculoskeletal system in a way that honors the whole person — mental, emotional, physical, and energetic. The awareness that chiropractic brings to humankind (and animals alike) is, to her, nothing short of sacred.
Outside the office, you'll find Dr. Melany immersed in the practices that fuel her own vitality:
Meditation, movement, the art of yoga, hiking in nature, and nourishing her entire being — mind, body, and soul.
