Initially I began treatments due to chronic reflux. Prescribed medication failed as I was challenged by the side-effects of the drugs. NeuroZest keeps my reflux under control and begins working during the treatment itself! The wonderful spin-off from NeuroZest, is that I also have immense energy which I was depleted of before I began treatments. I currently work 40 hours a week, am studying 20 hours a week, run my household and am Mum to two busy school-aged children. Before NeuroZest, I struggled to work 18 hours a week and certainly could not have considered studying as well. I work in the childcare industry and have found another bonus, is that I no longer get colds or tummy bugs. Before I began treatments, I would spend all winter plagued by sore throats, a runny nose and the occasional tummy bug. I can only put it down to NeuroZest that I can now be coughed on, snotted on and thrown up on and still not catch any bugs! I also suffered from a painful lower back for 5 years after my son was born, at times rendering me unable to work at all. After attending an osteopath for weeks, the pain did lessen. However, I could only work wearing a support-belt. I can honestly say that after my very first NeuroZest treatment, I have never again worn my support-belt!
NeuroZest has changed my life. I have so much more energy, do not suffer back-pain, my immunity appears to be working brilliantly and the major one for me, the reflux is controlled without resorting to pharmaceuticals. I recommend NeuroZest to family and friends whom have also had wonderful results!
Having a NeuroZest treatment with Melissa is wonderfully healing. Melissa always listens and makes her clients feel very comfortable. She easily interacts with people of all ages and temperaments, seemingly knowing exactly how to engage with each of her wide range of clients.
Melissa always works with clients until she is happy that she has done all she can to rectify their ailments in one session. I feel this is Melissa's point of difference when compared with other health-care providers. You know she cares about you and wants you leaving feeling much better than you did when you arrived.
I cannot recommend Melissa enough!! My teenage daughter would happily have a treatment on a daily basis if she could and my son believes Melissa should rename NeuroZest to "Magic Hands Melissa"...

My son Dalton has been diagnosed with Galant reflex, he was struggling to cope with a full day at school, after school activities and just day to day life in general. He was constantly fatigued, emotional and had poor concentration and co-ordination.
We organised a treatment session with Melissa for him in our home. The whole experience was great and being in the comfort of his own home was an added bonus. Dalton started the session tired, rubbing his eyes, with a very dull complexion and total lack of energy. As the treatment started and also the whole way through, Dalton remained calm and seemed to enjoy the non invasive approach in which Melissa treated him. Within 10 minutes his complexion literally started to change and he looked healthy with colour in his cheeks again. We also noticed the tiredness leave his body. His voice changed to a happier higher pitch and even his words were clearer! When he got up to walk, his overall posture had improved remarkably, his body was straight and strong and his balance was perfect.
Prior to treatment Dalton was also hypersensitive. He couldn't even tolerate walking barefoot. The sensation would be too overwhelming for him and he just wouldn't cope. He lived in socks and shoes. Now for the first time, he is able to wear jandals and will even run around barefoot!
As a family, we have all noticed such a positive change in Dalton. He has transformed from a shy anxious boy to a confident happy 5 year old and is literally functioning at his best. We are so grateful to Melissa for helping our boy shine and be the best he can be. We will happily continue with treatments for Dalton.

Doctors, Physio, Chiropractor, Dietician, Detox diets, Massage, Herbal and Homeopathic remedies, Vitamins, Acupuncture, Blood tests, X-rays, Scans, conventional/non-conventional and everything in between that I haven't even listed!
Then there's Melissa from NeuroZest.
I call her my one stop shop. How? I really don't know!
It's completely non-invasive, requires no supplements and somehow it just works?!

Gosh, where to start. Our son was getting in to trouble at school and kept falling behind his peers in most subjects, despite all efforts from multiple agencies. A friend recommended Melissa and we can't believe the transformation. Aaron is now a completely different boy. Happy, confident, no longer getting in to trouble and if not at the academic level expected for his age - above! I can't believe it. And I would not have believed it, without having experienced it. And to be honest, I was extremely sceptical and only "gave it a go" out of pure desperation. Not only has Aarons' personality changed, but his complexion is lovely, he sleeps better and he no longer suffers with food sensitivities!
Seriously, you have nothing to loose.
I do hope a fellow family reads this and has their lives transformed like ours has!
By the way, we all see Melissa now - for all sorts of different things.
Aches, decreased energy - there doesn't seem to be anything NeuroZest is not able to "make better!"
Thanks Melissa - you're awesome!

Well I have no idea what you did Melissa. But after multiple Specialists, Doctors and Physios. Mark was the most pain free and happy he has been in longer than I can remember.

I got up early and went for a half marathon. Then swam 5ks, oh and jumped out of a plane, I was feeling so good I did not need a parachute I hit the ground running...
But seriously, I am feeling good this morning no back, elbow or knee pain.
Melissa I am so grateful to you for taking the time for me, you went above and beyond for me. I am in your debt.

After 7 weeks of the hardest sleepless nights as a first time Mum, a fellow new Mum from coffee group told me about Melissa from NeuroZest. I have to admit, I was definitely skeptical, but at the same time I knew I didn’t want to put my son on meds (but I couldn’t leave him to be in constant pain either!)
I wasn't comfortable having a procedure done on my son without first experiencing it for myself (not that there was anything that needed fixing on me - or so I thought). Boy was I wrong! I had aches, pains, restricted movement that I wasn't even aware I had - until they were fixed! I could think much clearer and felt like I had a bounce in my step! How could this be?
Well, after my treatment, I was confident to trust Melissa with my son - OH MY GOODNESS!
You could see the difference in my son literally as Melissa was treating him. His complexion changed and his body just seemed so relaxed – he was no longer this rigid miserable baby. Infact, I now realised why it was so important to support a babys' neck! Prior to his treatment I literally didn't need to support my son's neck. He was always so rigid his muscles seemed to hold his neck by themselves - not because he had developed the muscle tone, simply because he was in so much pain.
My family and I are so thankful for finding out about Melissa.

Kia ora!
We were very lucky to have found Melissa in January, 2018.
I went to her for a crook neck but had an underlying condition of PCOS (Polycystic Ovaries) which I did not mention but she was able to pick up on.
We call her 'Magic Melissa' as we had tried and met with heartache every time we lost a baby. I had 3 miscarriages and high blood pressure and was unable to fall pregnant & have anymore babies. However the body knows what it wants and needs to function properly and Melissa & NIS were able to make this happen.
Two months after my initial visit I was blessed to have confirmation that we were pregnant and now have a 5 month old baby to add to the tribe.
I know NIS was able to connect missing links and heal my body enough to be able to have our little miracle.
My family and I have all had experiences with various treatments such as Chiropractic care, Physiotherapy, Naturopathy, Chinese Therapy & Acupuncture and Massage, and they have all played their part in our health, however NIS has been able to give us a comprehensive treatment that works for each of us and keeps our whānau healthy and functioning to our potential.diet and various other things such as fish oils etc. but it wasn’t until we tried NIS that he had a complete turn a
- Our 4yr old whangai son was treated for chronic constipation and eczema. We had tried the gluten free, diary free diet and various other things such as fish oils etc. but it wasn't until we tried NIS that we had a complete turn around. We no longer have to watch what he eats as his system is strong and working well. His biological brother had the same symptoms and after visiting Melissa he also had incredible results.
- Our 9yr old daughter had trouble focussing at school and staying on task. It seemed like she had ADD type symptoms but with NeuroZest we have treated her eyes, respiratory issues and other emotional and bone and growth areas. She is a lot more aware of her body and can gage when she is low on energy and needs to have another treatment. Her ability to focus in class has improved and she is starting to make significant progress at school.
We highly recommend Melissa at NeuroZest and the NIS treatment to anyone wanting to improve their health and the health of their whānau.
She is kind and caring and always checks on us a few days after treatment to see how we are feeling.
She’s amazing with the kids and has such a calm presence.

Hi Melissa, thanks for following up with me and thank you for putting so much time and effort into my appointment yesterday. I really appreciated it. Well, so about an hour after I left, I got super tired, but I had to work, so I just got through it quietly and drank lots of water like you said and the tiredness passed.
My knees feel so different, like they are just air, and my body too. It makes me realise that I must have just gotten used to feeling tense and pain in my body. I'm really enjoying what's happening and feel like my age again (in my early 20's not late 60's!). Thank you again, so much.

I'll be honest, I would have to be the biggest sceptic out there. Don't get me wrong - I'm still really confused.
But whatever it is that Melissa does - it works!
Forget the weekly physio, chiropractor, osteopath - if you want to ACTUALLY be fixed - see Melissa.

We have always prided ourselves in being such a healthy and active family. But this year, we all seemed to lack energy. It was easy enough to rationalise it. Our lives were extremely busy and of course the effects of the pandemic has effected everyone. Everyone I knew had some form of, or combination of - coughs, runny noses, hay fever, asthma, difficulty sleeping, lack of energy, brain fog, depression, anxiety etc. It didn't matter what age, vaccinated or not vaccinated.
Time of year I thought, everyone else isn't functioning great either. We exercised, played sports, ate well, took supplements - if we thought it would help boost our energy and immunity.
But then a friend spoke about Melissa, and I thought hey, why not? It's so true how sometimes you don't realise something needs fixing until it's fixed.
Wow, I didn't even think some of the things that were fixed could be fixed!
All three children somehow have their sparkle back in their eyes - I didn't even realise when they lost it! Somehow they are simply happier and chattier! Hubby and I haven't felt this good for I don't know how long. In fact, he's still freaked out about how the hell Melissa does what she does! Thanks Melissa - you're MAGIC!

My 2 daughters have had a few health issues for quite a few years. We had visited the Doctors many times and Whirinaki and never got any results. Life was hard for the girls. My Auntie told me about Melissa from NeuroZest. We made an appointment to see Melissa, and after 1 treatment the results were amazing. My eldest daughter suffered with severe anxiety, depression, autism and due to severe bullying from her peers - wanted to and had attempted to take her life. Since having the one treatment, she is now happy, smiling, cheeky and is excited about the future. She also had very sore teeth for 2yrs and nothing had helped. After one treatment with Melissa, my daughter is amazed that she is able to eat pain free. My younger daughter also had severe anxiety and found it extremely difficult to cope with most situations. After one treatment with Melissa, she has become very stable, more confident, stronger and happier. She also had pain in her knee and terrible issues with sleep. Again, after one treatment, my daughter is now able to play netball without any pain and is able to sleep through the night. Visiting Melissa was the best decision and the best outcome for my girls. Melissa has a very warm and welcoming manner. She explains the procedure to you and makes you feel completely comfortable. Thank you so much Melissa for your hard work and dedication toward helping your clients and making a huge difference in people’s lives. I have no hesitation in recommending Melissa to anyone.

Melissa has helped me with a variety of ailments and now our 12 year old cat too!
Felix our cat was very unwell and stopped eating and drinking, and just did not move at all which caused great concern for his wellbeing. A visit to the vet was inconclusive and the nausea tablets prescribed did little to improve his condition.
A few more days passed without any improvement and so I decided to email Melissa for any advice. She rang me immediately late on this Saturday evening. She was away for the weekend but told me some of her techniques over the phone in order to improve Felix's condition. Felix improved enough for him to start drinking again so I made an appointment with Melissa to see Felix after the weekend.
During treatment Felix's condition changed immediately and he was his former self afterwards. Felix is still alive today because of Melissa and I cannot thank her enough for her kindness. Imagine ringing me immediately on that Saturday night late in the evening. Melissa you are my "witch woman"!

After having my Covid vaccination I suffered severely with heart issues, tremors, weight loss, breathing difficulties, speech difficulties, insomnia, brain fog and vertigo. Unable to work and running out of Specialists to turn to - I found Melissa. Long story short - I highly recommend her! Back at work and living and enjoying life better than I had for years.

I was at my wits end. I had been in and out of Drs and Specialists for the last 4 years - sometimes 3 times a week. I had also tried everything alternate along the way. Some worked for a while and others were less than helpful. I had every test under the sun and more – even operations. Still they could not tell me what was wrong. Why I had pain and why my quality of life decreased rapidly before my eyes. I lost 45kg – nearly half of my body weight, in 4 months, and at times couldn’t even walk.
In and out of hospital, they could not find anything, so each time I was given more meds and sent home to rest. This was really frustrating, as I was not yet 40 and could not live a basic functional life. When asked what a good day was? I would say - being able to go to work and make dinner for my family before collapsing in to bed and hoping that tomorrow I could do it again.
A friend said “you have to try this”
After some time and feeling like nothing was ever going to change, I phoned Melissa at NeuroZest. I found her friendly and informative about what NIS was and how it worked. I booked an appointment and at my first session was able to talk about everything that had been going on for me and was not judged. Melissa went to work and did her thing, there was no painful or invasive treatments.
After my first session, I was told that I could expect to be tired and that I would need to drink lots of water and walk around every so often. The next day, I woke feeling the best I had in a long time. I went out and had a great day. I had already done more than I had been able to do in a week - and still had energy! I noticed my posture had changed and I was able to stand up straight. The best part, was it gave me hope that I could gain some quality back in my life.
My second visit left me feeling like I had been hit by a truck. I needed to rest to give my body time to recover from the corrections - I spent a day lying on the couch and sleeping. Melissa even checked up on me the next day, but by day three, I was all good to go again. What a change.
I continue to see Melissa and am getting better after each visit. I can still get tired after a good days work, but I’m not exhausted and find I recover a lot quicker. I have also been able to reduce the meds I was taking.
I wasn’t expecting anything much but what I got was way more than I could have hoped for.
I know it will take time, but I now have hope of a future and a balanced life. With a tweak here and there I’m back underway again.
Melissa is a wonderfully warm and genuinely caring person who I would recommend.

Melissa is a LEGEND.
I play sports professionally and have access to a full medical team. But I still see Melissa. Her treatments are completely non-invasive but amazingly effective. I can't understand what it is that she does. But I can vouch it works. I heal amazingly quickly, my immunity is great and mentally I'm on fire - like I say - LEGEND!

I truly did not believe I was long for this world before I met Melissa. I suffered for years with a domino of ailments. I had tried everything. Melissa does not just fix one thing, she fixes EVERYTHING! After a session with Melissa I don't have pain or movement problems, I sleep normally, I have my appetite, I have energy, my husband enjoys the fact that I joke and laugh again. After seeing the difference in me. My sister and her husband decided to check Melissa out. They are the fit and healthy type, but somehow Melissa still made a difference to them. From the outside, I couldn't believe how relaxed and younger they looked after seeing Melissa. Yet, I thought they were already amazing beforehand! My husband had a funny turn at work and was sent home, Dr's advised that he take a whole week of work, gave him a script for Codine and paracetamol and stressed he did nothing but rest. A week later not a a lot had improved, he was having dizzy spells and funny vision - how could Melissa do anything with that right? WRONG! What a change, over the next few days. Dizzy spells settled, vision was better than in a long time. Energy level was through the roof - feeling fit as a fiddle and energy to boot!
Well, never underestimate this lady. I have now sent my grand children to Melissa. She has assisted in so many ways. Learning difficulties, low moods, sporting injuries, sleeping issues to name a few! I am so eternally grateful for meeting Melissa she is so incredibly gifted.

I have had several concussions over the years, playing sport and others from being my clumsy self. Last year I suffered a concussion at work and it seemed like it was "the straw that broke the camel’s back." The symptoms were much worse and ranged from headaches, sleeplessness, low mood, fatigue, anxiety, and everything in between.
I was living a life I didn’t recognise in a fatigued body that failed me time and time again. Appointment after appointment ~ Doctors, physio, osteopath ~ you name it I’d tried it. Medications that my body hated were bandaid fixes that never seemed to ‘fix' me. Working full time as a teacher again seemed like a distant memory.
NeuroZest was my last resort as at this point I felt like I’d tried it all, and had absolutely nothing to loose! I went to my first appointment skeptically excited and told myself to keep an open mind. My mum came with me and watched it all unfold! I got the life and sparkle that I’d been missing for so long, back. I was genuinely ‘high on life’ for the week following. I worked longer hours at work, skipped my afternoon naps, ate food, and had conversations with others because I wanted to and not because I felt I had to.
For the first time I felt like I was conquering my head injury instead of it conquering me!!
