Testimonials

One of the most valuable aspects of the program was knowing what common misconceptions are in pain management and why it makes things worse. I highly recommend the whole program. Mel's lived experience was also invaluable.

Mel is so knowledgeable and very abundant in sharing this with anyone who wants to know. I learnt a lot. Thank you.

I've got to say, the Pain Management class has been so beneficial, I've gotten so much out of it like what to do and also what not to do, and there's been so many little things Mel's said that's made me realise this is why things aren't working for me.
Kathleen
Past Participant
Mel's classes are great. We're learning so much and they're so beneficial. So many of us have been told by healthcare professionals that we're not actually in pain or that there's nothing that can be done about it, and a lot of us have been told the wrong thing by physios but now we have answers and knowledge that we didn't before and can manage our pain better.
