After chiropractic college, she continued to give back to the rowing community through education and injury prevention lectures for university and provincial athletes. To provide the highest standard of care for her smallest patients, Dr. Mel has completed specialized training in Brazelton’s Neonatal Behavioural Assessment Scale (NBAS) at Boston Children’s Hospital , allowing her to assess newborns under 8 weeks of age with extraordinary precision. She also holds a Master’s degree in Pediatric Musculoskeletal Health from AECC University in Bournemouth, UK , and is certified in Medical Acupuncture from McMaster University. A respected educator, Dr. Mel mentors students from multiple colleges and universities through clinical placements, including chiropractic interns from CMCC and D’Youville College. She also worked with Logan University in St. Louis to help build their Evidence-Informed Pediatric Practice curriculum and taught in their Master’s program as adjunct faculty. Through every patient visit, every student she mentors, and every family she serves, Dr. Mel brings heart, knowledge, and joy. Her mission is simple: to help, to heal, and to make a difference—one baby, one mom, one patient and one brightened day at a time.
