Meet Dr. Jo

Over fifty years ago, I began my journey as a physical therapist in a Level One Trauma Center, where I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of manual therapy. Through hands-on techniques, I’ve successfully treated chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, TMJ, scoliosis, and more.

This website is built around You Healing You—empowering you with Tips and Tools, expert Team Work, and insights for Special Populations and Caregivers & Families. Our Telehealth programs, designed with YOU in mind, provide personalized guidance, while Essential Reading offers the latest research and techniques to help you on your healing path.

I've been fortunate to teach internationally, develop Joseph Bodyworks, and work with experts like Dr. Gabi Zobel and Dr. Peter Pagano to further enhance my approach. My own experience raising a blind, hearing-impaired son has shown me that perseverance and a clear vision lead to exceptional outcomes—no matter the challenge.

You have the power to heal yourself. I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

My Team

My Team of Recommended Professionals

With decades of experience, I’ve carefully selected these professionals who focus on healing without pain, using natural approaches that support the body’s ability to recover. Many of these experts take a less pharmaceutical approach, often including functional medicine, which may not always be covered by insurance but can offer valuable alternative care.

From massage balls and TENS units to supportive tapes, each product is chosen to help relieve pain, improve mobility, and support muscle function. Whether you’re working on myofascial release, enhancing circulation, or aiding joint recovery, these products provide effective, non-invasive solutions to help you heal naturally. Explore these tools to find the right fit for your needs, each designed for maximum comfort and therapeutic benefit.
