Description
Dr. Melissa switched career gears midway in her twenties as she decided to learn more about the ways to heal her own body from a natural perspective. She sought a Masters in Holistic Nutrition as well as a Doctorate of Naturopathy. Naturopathy (also known as naturopathic medicine or natural medicine) is an alternative medical system that focuses on natural remedies and the body’s vitalistic ability to heal and maintain itself.
Melissa is also a Vodder trained Certified Lymphatic Drainage Therapist and is certified in treating all aspects of lymphedema including upper extremity, trunk and lower extremity lymphedema in men, women and children. With over 1100 clinical hours of training, Melissa was personally trained by the team who created electro lymphatic drainage therapy and maintains a vigorous schedule the involves work with cancer clinical trials, cancer patients in the beginning, middle and end phases of surgery, chemo/radiation and end stage supportive care as well as is referred to by many local, regional and national plastic surgeons for her assistance in promoting adequate lymph drainage, surgery recovery and speedy healing of surgical incisions.
Melissa is also a trained LSP laser therapist and uses a specialized FDA approved blue light laser for addressing scar tissue reduction, cellulite reduction and tightening of skin around the face, neck and chin.
For the past 12 years, Melissa’s focus has been working with individuals addressing digestive disorders, hormone balance, detoxification therapies and primary and secondary lymphedema cases through lymphatic decongestive treatments. Most often, clients come to Melissa after they have sought traditional medical resources and have felt frustrated, overwhelmed or unheard.

Magnesium is one of my absolute favorite supplements under the sun. It helps to promote healthy blood sugar regulation. It's beneficial for anyone who is under stress or cannot sleep. It's been shown in studies to help relieve symptoms of anxiety and sadness. It also helps to maintain our healthy bones, may improve some headaches and help to manage blood pressure levels. And it can be taken in many, many different salt forms. And we're just seeing in recent research that depending on the salt that you take, you can have different benefits throughout the entire body.
Magnesium 7 from Organixx has seven different salts of magnesium so that you can get a full spectrum benefit. You'll get the benefits to the cardiovascular system of magnesium to rate. You'll get the benefits to the digestive system with magnesium citrate. You'll also get magnesium glycinate, aspartate, malate, and orate. All of which can help to reduce stress and anxiety, promote restful restorative sleep, support a healthy heart and strong bones, enhance our nutrient absorption, and help us to produce more energy and contribute to healthy cellular and nerve function.
Head to http://www.lindseyelmore.com/organixx to pick up their best selling full spectrum daily magnesium supplement, complete with seven forms of elemental magnesium and co-factors to maximize bioavailability.
