Dr. Melany

Vitality is everything.
A vital mind, body, and soul are the foundation of a meaningful life. In today’s world, we all experience dysfunction, chaos, stress, and those mysterious aches and pains that seem to appear out of nowhere. But we weren’t designed to just survive — we’re here to live fully.

To enjoy the magical connections we share with loved ones — and the rich experiences life has to offer — we must pursue health as a way of being.

Dr. Melany Bates has walked many paths of healing, and each one has deepened her understanding of the body’s innate intelligence. Chiropractic gives her the opportunity to weave together ancient wisdom and modern science — offering guidance, education, and powerful hands-on care to those seeking a more vital, connected life.

Her approach blends:

  • Deep listening and intuitive care

  • Gentle, nervous-system-based chiropractic

  • Coherent bodywork and breath awareness

  • Emotional, physical, and structural integration

She works with the neuromusculoskeletal system in a way that honors the whole person — mental, emotional, physical, and energetic. The awareness that chiropractic brings to humankind (and animals alike) is, to her, nothing short of sacred.

Outside the office, you’ll find Dr. Melany immersed in the practices that fuel her own vitality: meditation, movement, the art of yoga, hiking in nature, and nourishing her entire being — mind, body, and soul.

PATTERNS: You Deserve Attention

Does this sound like your?

“I don’t know how to explain it exactly… I’m just exhausted all the time, even when I sleep. My body feels like it’s always on, like I can’t fully relax. I’m tense without realizing it, and when I try to slow down it doesn’t really stick. I get sick more easily now, or it takes forever to recover, and I keep burning out even when I swear I won’t this time. Nothing is obviously wrong, but something feels off — like I’m disconnected from my body or my energy, or not fully in myself anymore.”

The good news is your body isn’t broken. It already knows how to regulate and recover — it just needs the right kind of support.

If any of this sounds familiar, your system may be asking for something vital.
That’s where we begin.

Au, the elemental symbol for gold, represents resonance, conductivity, and incorruptible value—the inherent signal of life.
Nu, a reference to waveforms and renewal, speaks to the fluid adaptability of biological systems and the nature of the nervous system itself: ever-sensing, ever-integrating, always in motion. Anu carries the oldest memory—known in Sumerian myth as the originating force but also echoed in quantum and energetic fields as the spark from which pattern emerges. AUNU, then, is the living rhythm of what animates us: the return to signal, coherence, and vitality at the most essential level.
