Healers and Practitioners
Melanie Snell, Dr. Ac., R. Ac., Reiki Master
Doctor of Acupuncture & Holistic Medicine Practitioner
Melanie is a Doctor of Acupuncture, Registered Acupuncturist, and holistic practitioner whose work explores the relationship between the body, emotions, and lived experience. Her practice is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine and complemented by training in nutrition, Western herbalism, Reiki, craniosacral therapy, sound therapy, and somatic and mind-body approaches.
Her practice centres on somatic acupuncture and the intersection of mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing, supporting clients in understanding and responding to the ways their experiences are held and expressed in the body. Melanie works with individuals navigating stress, overwhelm, emotional challenges, and the physical manifestations that can accompany periods of change, uncertainty, or sustained strain. Her practice also encompasses a range of physical health and internal medicine concerns, with a particular interest in the ways physical and emotional health influence one another.
Through acupuncture and gentle, body-based practices, Melanie creates space for clients to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and develop greater awareness of what their bodies may be communicating. Her approach is individualized, trauma-informed, and grounded in both the traditional principles of Chinese medicine and a contemporary understanding of the mind-body relationship.
