Who am I?

Hi, I’m Jeri!

Let me start by saying: I get it. TMJD is no joke. I know because I’ve been there—jaw pain, headaches, and the frustration of no one having answers or solutions. That’s what fired me up to help others with this condition.

I’ve been a massage therapist for 15 years, but my path into treating TMJD started about five years ago. That’s when I decided to do a deep dive and take advanced training to understand and treat this complex condition better. Two years ago, I went all in and rebranded my clinic to focus exclusively on the treatment of TMJD. 

My personal experience with this condition took me down a rabbit hole. Along the way, I discovered myofunctional therapy—my mind was blown. I learned that TMJD isn’t just about the jaw; it’s about the airway, function and position of the tongue. Myofunctional therapy addresses the root causes of TMJD, not just the symptoms. This felt like the missing puzzle piece. I knew I couldn’t ignore the power of this approach, so I trained in myofunctional therapy to help not only myself but also my patients. It’s been a total game-changer.

Now, I combine hands-on massage therapy with myofunctional exercises to provide a comprehensive plan to get my clients relief. No quick fixes, no band-aids—just real solutions that work. 

My mission is simple: to help you feel AND function better.
