Sala is a little treasure! An intimate and healing space.

I love this place!! And talking with Mel!

Mel facilitates a great yin restorative yoga session where I feel energised and relaxed. Good, gentle practice on a Sunday morning!
Couldn't recommend Sala enough! I've been going to Mel for probably over a year now and she's helped significantly with my muscle tightness, stress levels.
Highly recommend !

Mel is knowledgeable, talented, kind, supportive, and a darn good masseuse. After only two sessions with her, my adductor muscle strain is much improved and I will definitely keep coming to see her ‘cause she’s calm and knows stuff! Thank you, Mel.

I have attended Mel's Yin & Meditation classes and they are so grounding, such a nice atmosphere and Yin is such a beautiful yoga practice. I've also received a Reiki treatment with Mel which was another grounding experience and I'm so grateful for it.
Skilled , balanced, healing, peaceful and welcomed... if you like all those things like i do.. try Mel at Sala Newcastle.. my experience with her has been a worthy repair and rebuild .. thank you Mel.. looking forward to next time.
So happy to have found Sala! Mel is lovely and I've thoroughly enjoyed Yin, meditation, book club and sound healing at the beautiful studio.

Mel is a phenomenal remedial masseuse. I’ve had numerous issues with lower back pains and tight shoulders. She has so much knowledge and has always tailored her treatment to suit my specific needs. Could not recommend highly enough.
Mel is a miracle worker, I’ve been dealing with shoulder pain when exercising for the last 8 years. I’ve seen Physio’s, Chiro’s and other Remedial Massage Therapists who have never been able to help, one visit from Mel and I’ve exercises without pain for the first time in years.

The day following my decompression therapy my body was noticeably more relaxed. My chronic back pain from chronically being hunched over at my office desk was virtually nonexistent.

Mel has been awesome! Had really bad back and hip pains and after a couple of sessions, I’m already feeling sooo much better. Highly recommend Mel for pain relief to any of my local mates.

I'm Mel
Only my sister & mum call me Melissa tho, lol !
I am super passionate about sharing the skills and
Techniques that I have used to move through the challenges of my
life and the negative thinking that came with them, such as
childhood abuse, losing a parent and entering into a new life after
leaving my marriage.
If i can move beyond my own mentally stories, that once left me
feeling stuck, so can you!
I believe in you!
I know what it’s like to be stuck, but then develop the tools to move beyond those limiting stories. And if I can do it, so can you! Within the safe and comfortable space of Sala, I can give you the guidance and support to find a self freed from the struggling selves we develop to cope with negative experiences in our lives.
