Melanie Rivelli
Craniosacral Fascial Therapist
Melanie Rivelli is a licensed massage therapist with over 25 years of experience in bodywork and healing. She specializes in Craniosacral Fascial Therapy (CFT)—a gentle, hands-on technique that helps release strain and tightness in the body’s fascial and craniosacral systems. CFT supports the natural flow of movement and function throughout the body, helping both children and adults feel more balanced, comfortable, and connected.
CFT is especially powerful for infants who may be experiencing feeding difficulties, oral restrictions like tongue and lip ties, tension from birth, or general fussiness. By gently releasing fascial strain around the head, neck, and body, CFT can improve latch, reduce gassiness or reflux, support better sleep, and help babies settle more easily. It works beautifully in combination with chiropractic care, bodywork, or oral therapy to help babies function at their best.
Melanie was drawn to this work after her own son experienced challenges related to a tongue tie. She has since trained through the Upledger Institute and in the Gillespie Approach of CFT, which blends craniosacral therapy with fascial release to help the body unwind from physical and emotional strain.
Melanie offers CFT sessions for all ages—from newborns to seniors—providing a calm, nurturing space for the body to heal, reset, and thrive.

Dr. Gluzman
pediatrician
Dr. Nelli Gluzman, founder and head physician at Blossom Pediatrics, works to heal your child from the inside out by applying a holistic, gut health approach towards whole body wellness. This approach is one that focuses on the root cause of soft signs and ‘dis-ease’ in children, which can almost always be traced back to gut health and nutrition.
Dr. Gluzman has been a practicing pediatrician in NY for over a decade. She received her medical degree from New York College of Osteopathic Medicine; completed her pediatric residency at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, NJ, and is a board certified fellow of the American Osteopathic Board of Pediatrics.
Her clinical experience includes working in pediatric emergency and intensive care medicine; in-patient, and out-patient pediatric medicine; neonatal intensive care medicine; newborn and delivery room medicine; and conventional, holistic and integrative pediatric private practice. She is also the sole NYC pediatrician to be a certified practitioner of the GAPS (Gut And Psychology Syndrome) Protocol.
In addition to her pediatric practice, Dr. Gluzman serves as a Clinical Preceptor to NY medical facilities where she provides education, guidance and hands-on learning experiences for medical students and resident physicians. She’s also a medical consultant for Google Search, a guest speaker for NBC and Buzzfeed, and founded the Bright Illusion Thinking; where she composed evidence-based medical research content for fellow physicians.
On a more personal note, her daughter (who’s health she personally rescued and transformed) is the absolute shining star of her life!
