In this episode of the podcast Mining Minds sits down with two remarkable women reshaping the health and wellness landscape: Melissa Montalvo and Josie Cervantes of Elko Replenish Med Spa.
Together, they reveal how their professional experiences—from ER trauma to urgent care frustrations—sparked a vision: to create a space that not only heals but empowers. That vision became Elko Replenish Med Spa, a modern facility focused on hormone therapy, IV nutrition, weight management, and overall wellness.
The duo discusses how their clinic is bridging the gap between conventional medicine and preventative care, especially for miners and working professionals in Northern Nevada.
From hormone optimization and detox treatments to addressing male and female health in the mining industry, Melissa and Josie are revolutionizing rural medicine with empathy, education, and science-backed solutions. Join Mining Minds as we welcome Elko Replenish Med Spa to the Face!
