Chelesa is a gifted healer who is particularly skilled in helping women return to the wisdom of their bodies. I first visited Chelesa as a new mom struggling to regain a sense of balance in my body. She patiently and kindly listened to my story and helped me see how my body was pointing the way to a new and deeper understanding of myself. She is a brave, grounded, strong and gentle practitioner who has a compassionate heart and a wise intuition. I feel very grateful for her support as I have become a stronger and happier person.
Annie G“Dr. Sweet and Dr. Chelesa Mayer are the two most incredible doctors I’ve ever had. The fact that they are now in one clinic is beyond amazing for their patients. Dr. Sweet was the first doctor to help me after five years of chronic pain. She is practical and grounded, a brilliant diagnostician, and just a wonderful person to have in your community. She brings to the table knowledge in so many areas of medicine and physical therapy, from acupuncture to Mayan abdominal massage and back again. It feels like she has always more in her tool belt no matter how perplexing your problem may be because she has studied so many different areas of medicine. After having my son, Dr. Sweet refered me to Dr. Mayer for postpartum hip pain. I have never been able to heal from something so quickly and wholly as I did with Dr. Mayer. I’ve also never been so immediately comfortable with someone and able to trust them completely as I was with Dr. Mayer. After seeing her for one appointment, I already felt fifty percent better in my hip and even more so in my soul. I could not stop talking about the experience because it was so positive and healing. I wish everyone in the world could see Dr. Mayer and Dr. Sweet.”
Laura D“Dr. Jessica Sweet has been my Naturopath for about a year. During the time she has been treating me I have had a positive response to her therapies which include but are not limited to acupuncture and Chinese herb therapy. I have had lasting relief from back pain, symptoms of menopause and fatigue. She is the first doctor I have seen in my 64 years who has listened to my symptoms and has treated me successfully without the use of pharmaceuticals. I recommend her highly. You will not be disappointed!”
Eileen L“Dr. Melissa Kuser has been a true medical partner, supporting me on my health journey for four years (and
counting)! I’ve always been seen by others as appearing healthy – but I knew my digestive system needed care
and balance, and the mainstream medical response to my PCOS was ‘I’ll just worry about this when you
want to get pregnant’;. Dr. Melissa has supported my whole body health with Mayan Abdominal Massage,
acupuncture, herbal remedies, and sparing Western medicine when needed. At almost 36 years old, I can now
say I'm in the best FULL health of my life. I have no doubt that our work in addressing my SIBO, and then in
supporting pelvic health and hormonal balance, readied me to become a mother. I got pregnant on a fast
timeline – quite unexpected by the mainstream medical folks – and have a wonderful one-year old kiddo.”
It’s difficult for me to put into words what an important role Dr. Hopkins has played in my life over the past two years. From my very first visit, I knew I had finally found the doctor I had spent years searching for. I came to Dr. Hopkins during a very difficult time in my life. I was physically struggling with chronic conditions, was battling overwhelming anxiety and depression, and felt hopeless. With kindness, compassion, and an unwavering belief in my ability to heal, Dr. Hopkins has helped me to take control of my health and make empowered decisions about my care. I finally feel like I am on the path to true healing and feel supported every step of the way.
36 year old female“Dr. Melissa Kuser was recommended to me by a trusted friend. I find I look forward to my visits with Dr. Kuser.
She is incredibly smart, perceptive and kind. I appreciate how she spends time with me to find out the source
of what is wrong vs. putting a “band-aid” on the symptoms. Trust me, I have given her much to work on
including anti immune, joint, diet, gut, and accident issues. She communicates with me in person and by email
to ensure I am comfortable and knowledgeable about what is going on with my body. I believe under her care, I
have added years to my life by giving my body the care and nutrition it needs. I have and will continue to
recommended Dr. Kuser to anyone who will listen.”
I saw Chelesa for chronic shoulder pain that limited my ability to do physical work and athletic activities. She used a unique blend of physical therapy, body-work, and intuitive modalities to guide me to a complete resolution of my shoulder issues. I have never had a more positive experience with a health care practitioner.
Matt H“Dr. Sweet is the embodiment of humanity. I’ve never met a person (let alone a doctor) that truly listens to your every single concern, addresses it, and works with you to resolve it…regardless of how minor or major it may be. This is a person who will never dismiss you or make you feel like you are broken. Finding a doctor that was Lyme literate and also willing to provide non traditional treatment was something I thought was the equivalent of finding a unicorn, and I feel truly blessed to have found these things in Dr. Sweet (maybe she’s a unicorn?!). I’ve joked that if she ever moved out of the country that I would be forced to move too….I stand by my words. Thank you for everything that you do!”
Linda DAt peak fitness at age 58, I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis at L-3 and L-4 to go along with my bulging disc problems at L-5 and L-6. I could no longer ski, hike, garden or engage in many of my normal activities. Surgery was not an option. I worked with several highly reputable physical therapists for several years only to find an increase in my neuralgia, muscle cramps, foot numbness, back aches and sleep problems. Inactive, I gained at least 25 pounds. I became depressed. Enter Dr. Mayer. She immediately diagnosed that I had a long term posture problem that exacerbated my symptoms and thwarted more traditional therapies. We literarily started at the bottom, the lowest part of my back, and through a series of postures and movements my sway back began to straighten. With time, my symptoms receded; the vertigo, the pins and needles, the numbness, the back pain, and the depression. I treasure my relationship with Dr. Mayer for the way she inspires me keep up with my health practices. Learning together has brought us closer together. I can not recommend a better partner for creating and maintaining a life with good health!

Becoming a patient of Dr. Chelesa’s has been nothing short of transformational. I first came to Chelesa hoping to get help addressing chronic pain from a more holistic standpoint than traditional physical therapy. What I didn’t know then was that Chelesa would inspire me to start on a path of exploring and unraveling long-held patterns that were at the root of the physical and emotional pain I had been struggling with for years. Chelesa was the first health care praticitioner I’d ever had who I felt truly seen by. With her ability to gently hold space and honor my unique process, she has helped me to develop incredible tools for self-care and to realize my strength, resiliency, and healing potential.
