Melissa's Functional Nurse Academy has every aspect I wanted to have for my functional medicine practice without me having to do the leg work!
The educational portion of the program is priceless and Melissa does an excellent job explaining how the lab results connect and can indicate specific imbalances.
Her organization with the steps to setting up the business portion is also extremely easy to follow and complete quickly to get up and running!

Meet the FNA Founder
Melissa is registered nurse, board certified functional
medicine practitioner, board certified nurse coach and approved continuing education provider #50-33409.
She has over a decade of nursing experience and is a seasoned nurse educator and public speaker. After struggling with an undiagnosed autoimmune condition and chronic lyme disease for several years she learned how powerful functional medicine modalities can be for reversing disease processes.
Throughout her experience within the conventional medical model as a nurse and a patient herself, she witnessed the brokenness and corruption of the conventional medical model.
This experience motivated her to create a private functional medicine practice that respects patient’s rights, focuses on the root cause of disease and implements lifestyle and nutritional interventions to heal the body.
After establishing a successful practice, Melissa then created Functional Nurse Academy with the mission to foster an alternative healthcare model that focuses on true health and wellness and supports nurses who seek to practice outside of the sick care model and become fulfilled in their nursing practice.
