In today’s episode, Sarah is sitting down and chatting with Malissa Manilla, talking about all things health, wellness, and exercise science.
Dr. Melissa Manilla's passion for health and wellness began as a child, when she found reading nutrition labels to be a fun task. Her lifelong love for nutrition and wellness began her academic career, as she studied Human Nutrition and Exercise Science at The Ohio State University. During her undergraduate studies, her desire to become a physician led her to the National University of Health Sciences, where she completed her Doctor of Chiropractic degree. While in the midst of her chiropractic coursework, she still felt something was missing and found her way back to her calling of clinical nutrition. She then pursued a Master's of Human Nutrition & Functional Medicine through the University of Western States, of which she graduated with distinction. Throughout her schooling, she also found a love for acupuncture, which led her to complete over 300 hours of acupuncture coursework and certifications. With acupuncture, she can treat both musculoskeletal and internal medicine conditions. Dr. Manilla is also trained in cupping therapy as an adjunct to her care. She has various certifications and has attended numerous seminars to enhance her clinical knowledge. She has attended almost every Apex Energetics Functional Medicine seminar focusing on endocrinology, thyroid conditions, neurological health, and blood work analysis. She has spent many hours at nutrition conferences, acupuncture seminars, and functional medicine forums, giving her a specialty in internal medicine. Her passions include autoimmune diseases, infertility, thyroid ailments, gut conditions, and clinical weight control. Her greatest passion is fertility care. After experiencing two very different and emergent pregnancy losses, she has learned personally the hardship of trying to conceive. She wants to support women in every step of this journey. Dr. Melissa enjoys travel, always having something on the social calendar, movement of any kind, trying new restaurants, and exploring new places with her husband, Andy, and son Kai. She has two fluffy doodles named Macy and Fiona. She has travelled to over 24 countries (five completely solo travels) and is not stopping anytime soon!
