Where it all started
Luke and Melinda formed Accent Wellness in 2020. First they were partners in life and then became partners in business. COVID brought about significant changes for everyone. It became the catalyst for Luke and Melinda to start something that they had been dreaming about for a long time.
Accent Wellness serves the Greater Rochester area. We recognize the limitations of transportation that prevent people from getting the services they really need. Accent Wellness is committed to traveling to you so that services are more easily accessible.
