Kinesiologist, neuro-trainer, wife, mother of three with a self-sufficiency focus.
Hello and Welcome!
Melissa Gonella | Neuro-Training Kinesiology
Melissa is the director of Melissa Gonella Kinesiology and has helped thousands of people to grow into their potential.
She has worked for over 25 years’ supporting girls and women as they transition through the cycles of puberty, pregnancy, birth and menopause and the full spectrum of everything in-between.
Her own journey from that of a troubled adolescent to now has left her living happily ever after… Well, to be completely honest, not always happily, but certainly meaningfully with many brave healing adventures in between.
She is a compassionate, knowledgeable and insightful practitioner, fueled by her passion to serve and understand the nuances that influences people’s well-being. She considers herself as a ‘forever student’ being eager to build upon her academic foundations as a Neuro-Training Kinesiologist as well as her knowledge of women’s and girl’s health.
Melissa believes that mindfulness, and movement are the keys to success, tenets that she lives out through her interests of being in nature, living an active life outdoors on her rural property and spending quality time with her family.
You will find Melissa at her Clinic in Lower Plenty (which is near Eltham, in Melbourne’s outer north eastern suburbs) Wednesday to Friday. Please reach out and get in touch!
Melissa’s Approach & Values
Melissa has been practising Neuro-Training Kinesiology since 2016. Her approach is grounded in compassion, humility and the belief that we each have a role in our own wellbeing.
Neuro-Training Kinesiology is a solution-focused approach that explores how stress and learned responses can influence the way we think, feel and respond to life. Melissa works with clients to identify underlying stress patterns, build on existing strengths and resources, and explore new ways of responding to life’s challenges.
She believes in self-responsibility without blame. While we don’t choose everything that happens to us, developing a greater understanding of our responses can create opportunities for change.
Melissa brings a practical, individual approach to her work, meeting each client where they are and treating their experiences with compassion and respect.
Her aim is to support people in finding greater clarity, flexibility and choice in how they navigate life. By supporting these changes, her work can contribute to greater health outcomes, often addressing physical symptoms and bringing a stronger sense of overall wellbeing.
