Jewls Gardner(maiden)- Jewlya Herndon

I am a certified massage therapist going on 25yrs experience with over 5000 hrs clinical, dedicated to doing my best to provide a healing, relaxing and lasting massage for you. I am currently teaching at the Chico Massage School https://chicomassageschool.com/.

I specialize in treating many forms of muscle-skeletal problems of which some are: sports injury, shoulders, hips, carpal tunnel, plantar fasciatis, low back pain and stiff neck and ligmental release.

I provide Geriatric massage on in office or to care facilities.

I am a graduate of Chico Wellness Center , over 300 hrs of CEU in Clinical massage and over 15000 hrs under Chiropractic structural integrity work, and I am also an alumnus of California State University, Chico. Currently completing my neurological CEU in clinical Massage certification. I have dedicated my energy to learning something new in this field every day. I spent 5 years working under the supervision of an excellent Chiropractor here in Chico , and together we made a great team. This collaboration greatly expanded my understanding of structural kinesiology and the pathways of the nervous system, which has resulted in more efficient and targeted massage techniques. I have studied under a few excellent therapists here in town and i continue to educated myself. I highly recommend massage /before/after chiropractic visit, even a 15 min in office is most beneficial. I would be pleased to refer you to a Dr. if you are in need of chiropractic care or Orthopedic or Acupuncture.

Also providing a monthly class on posture , movement and exercise for a strong healthy back and neck.

***I work for myself as I require a flexible schedule for my family life….I am looking for clients who can appreciate and work within a flexible schedule. I may have to rearrange my life schedule and thus rearrange my work schedule. Therefore I also am very flexible with my clients as well.
