Dr. Luke Melsenti
Meet Dr. Luke Melsenti
Dr. Melsenti is not new to Cofrancesco Chiropractic & Healing Arts. His journey began more than twenty years ago when Luke and his family became patients of Dr. Lou’s and experienced the health benefits and healing that Gonstead chiropractic adjustments could provide. Chiropractic care has been a part of their lives ever since.
Dr. Melsenti studied at The University of Bridgeport School of Chiropractic where he graduated with honors. In addition to the standard curriculum demands of the university, Luke spent many hours learning the Gonstead philosophy and methods with Dr. Lou as his teacher and mentor. The history, respect and friendship between these doctors has created a welcoming and caring environment where patients’ concerns are a priority.
Dr. Luke maintains that the Gonstead Method is second to none for precise spinal care, and it is the focal point of his patient treatment. He also emphasizes the importance of soft tissue treatment for optimal results as he integrates a variety of techniques such as Fascial Manipulation, in which he is Level 1 certified, to address fascial restrictions, enhance mobility, and support the body’s natural healing process.
On the personal side, Dr. Melsenti currently resides in Fairfield with his wife, Sheila. They met in Florida where Luke graduated from Full Sail University and was pursuing his love of music in a band that included his twin brother. While in Florida, Luke continued his care with a chiropractor who also ascribes to the Gonstead Method. It was his positive experiences with chiropractic care and his desire to provide a healthy, proactive approach to healthcare that brought Luke back to Connecticut to study and to a partnership with Dr. Cofrancesco.
