Melissa Knight

Melissa Knight is a trauma-informed mind-body and embodiment practitioner dedicated to helping people of all ages restore connection to their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and build resilience from the inside out. Her approach integrates Reiki, Mind-Body Eating Psychology, and somatic practices informed by trauma research and polyvagal theory. Through this blend, Melissa creates safe, supportive spaces where emotional release, nervous system regulation, and self-empowerment can naturally unfold. What sets Melissa’s work apart is not only the breadth of training and techniques she brings but also the depth of her lived experience. Having carried the impacts of trauma, intergenerational patterns, and body disconnection for decades, she understands how these challenges imprint both the mind and physiology — and how true healing requires more than surface-level change. Her sessions are grounded in a trauma-informed framework, emphasizing safety, compassion, and body awareness. Melissa supports clients in gently re-patterning stress responses, releasing stored emotional energy, and cultivating a deeper sense of embodiment and self-trust. Her work helps individuals move beyond inherited conditioning and limiting beliefs by engaging both body and mind — activating the parasympathetic nervous system, integrating suppressed emotions, and restoring balance and vitality. The result is greater capacity for joy, connection, healthy boundaries, and authentic self-expression.
