About Me.
Hi, I’m Melissa Rocker, a Functional Nutrition Practitioner and certified Mineral Nutritional Balancing Practitioner. But before I ever had those titles, I was a woman searching for answers, desperate to feel like myself again. I know what it’s like to feel trapped in a body that isn’t working the way it should.
After my first baby was born, I experienced postpartum depression so heavy it swallowed me whole. I was exhausted beyond words, emotionally drained, and constantly questioning why no one had prepared me for how depleted I would feel. My body felt foreign, my mind was foggy, and I couldn’t shake the weight of it all.
Then came the moment that changed everything—my son had a severe reaction to a routine vaccine. Watching his tiny body struggle, seeing him vomit daily with no clear answers, and feeling completely powerless to help him broke me in ways I never expected. I begged for answers, but no one seemed to have them. The same system I had trusted with his health dismissed my concerns and left me alone to figure it out.
And it didn’t stop there. My husband was battling debilitating migraines, missing work, missing life, and stuck in a cycle of pain that no doctor could explain. We were constantly searching, trying, hoping—but getting nowhere. I was exhausted. Frustrated. Angry.
That’s when I stopped looking for answers in the same places that had failed me and started digging into the science myself. I studied human physiology, mineral balancing, and the deep connection between nutrition, the nervous system, and detoxification. I spent years uncovering what was missing—not just for myself, but for my family.
And that’s when everything changed.
I pulled myself out of postpartum depression. I helped my son’s body heal. I found the missing links behind my husband’s migraines and watched him get his life back. And in the process, I rebuilt my own health from the ground up.
That’s why I created Rooted Wellness. Because I know what it’s like to feel dismissed, ignored, and left without real answers. I know the exhaustion of searching for solutions when nothing seems to work. And I know—without a doubt—that true healing is possible.
Imagine waking up feeling rested and energized instead of drained before the day even begins. Picture yourself moving through your day with clarity, focus, and the ability to show up fully for yourself and your family. Imagine what it would feel like to have steady moods, better digestion, and a body that finally feels like home again.
This is what’s possible when you support your body in the way it truly needs—working with its natural rhythms instead of fighting against symptoms. When you address the root causes instead of masking discomfort, you can have more fun, more energy, and truly live your purpose—without being held back by exhaustion, brain fog, or chronic symptoms.
Your body isn’t broken—it just needs the right support.
If you feel like no one is listening, if you’re tired of the endless cycle of frustration and exhaustion, I want you to know that I see you. I’ve been there. And I can help.
It’s time to reclaim your energy, restore balance, and get back to your roots so you can live the life you were born to live.
