Jessica is the passionate founder and clinic director of Meridian Medical Massage. A natural leader, healer, and visionary, she built the clinic from the ground up with one mission: to provide compassionate, results-driven medical massage therapy that helps people reconnect with their bodies and reclaim their well-being.
​
With a solid background in business management, deep expertise in therapeutic care, and an unwavering dedication to people, Jessica does more than run the clinic — she nurtures it. She leads the Meridian team with heart, ensuring every patient is met with empathy, every therapist is empowered to thrive, and every detail — from insurance billing to treatment planning — is handled with integrity and excellence.
​
Behind the scenes, Jessica is the engine that keeps things running. She coordinates patient care, advocates for clients with insurance companies and attorneys, supports and trains staff, and upholds the clinic’s gold standard of care. Whether credentialing therapists, resolving billing concerns, or mentoring her team, Jessica is always working to create a space where healing happens — physically, emotionally, and holistically.
​
Outside the clinic, Jessica is a devoted wife, mom to four amazing kids, and lifelong learner. She finds joy in gardening, hiking, reading, and planning meaningful adventures with her family. She lives with intention, leads with love, and is passionate about empowering others — especially women — to recognize their worth and step into their lives.
​
At Meridian Medical Massage, Jessica’s presence is felt in every corner — not just in the treatment room, but in the culture of care and sense of home she’s cultivated for both patients and staff.
