My name is Melanie Herzog and I’m originally from Switzerland. After obtaining my qualification in Business Administration and Commerce, I traveled the globe and lived in Spain and New Zealand before permanently settling in Australia in 2001. It wasn’t until a few years later that I was introduced to Kinesiology. At the time I was in a vulnerable state, feeling heartbroken and alone in a foreign country, battling bouts of depression. Kinesiology turned my life around. I found joy in my personal life and confidence and success in my career in the corporate sector. After having a family on my own and continuing to work, feeling stressed and overwhelmed became the norm, which affected my relationships. The daily struggles manifested into anxiety and insomnia as well as chronic back pain. I was working hard at hiding it and thought I did an excellent job. Nearly 10 years ago my body gave me a clear sign to end the ‘coping mechanism’, as I ended up with pneumonia and was emotionally burnt out. That’s when I re-discovered the magic of Kinesiology and decided to study it. Over the course of my studies, a painful but liberating journey inward began and I realised that the most important relationship in life was the relationship with myself. I slowly reconnected with myself, acknowledged my needs and trusted my inner voice and the signals of my body. Eventually, I made the choice to give up my corporate career and follow my dream to support other people’s wellness journey. I have always been fascinated by how the body works and over the years, I have come to understand that the mind and body are one. Every symptom we experience is our body trying to get our attention. Often, we ignore it until we reach breaking point or we may just opt for a quick fix to alleviate the symptom. Do we really address the core issue? Why is this happening in the first place? What is the symptom trying to tell us? This is where I come in by helping you understand the WHY and getting to the root cause. Is it physical? Is it emotional? Is it a biochemical issue? Is it a nervous system dysregulation?
My passion is to help people reconnect with themselves and empower them to live a fulfilling and joyous life, free from anxiety. I currently offer Holistic Kinesiology, EFT Tapping, Life Coaching, Counselling , Access Bars®, the Emotion Code® and the Body Code®
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. My 2 spirited boys have endless energy, keeping me on my toes. I love being in nature, particularly at the beach. Travelling, discovering and connecting with people from different cultures and backgrounds is something I enjoy immensely.
I also volunteer regularly in the community. Some of my past projects and commitments involved working at the Cancer Council and Salvation Army, Literacy Buddy Project, Secretary & Committee member at the local OOSH.
Please connect with me on social media and feel free to follow me, comment or inbox me.
I look forward to meeting YOU soon.
Big Love,
Melanie xx
