Her educational history and clinical training includes a B.A. in biology with honors from Ithaca College, RN/APRN with honors from Mass General Institute of Health Professions, certificate in healthcare management and leadership from George Washington University and post-masters advanced studies in neurobiology of mental disorders/neuropsychiatry and clinical psychopharmacology from University of New Hampshire.

Treatment Approach
”I believe that in our current healthcare climate the most frustrating and discouraging issue for patients is feeling unheard, unseen, judged, marginalized or placed in a “one-size fits all” treatment box. I am passionate about providing personalized medical services and addressing each one of my patients’ individual values and unique medical needs. My goal is to bring a kind, approachable and responsive style to every visit and interaction. I am particularly interested in working with individuals with co-existing thyroid disorders and depression, low-testosterone and depression, female hormonal imbalance and anxiety/depression, obesity and unhealed trauma, as well as healthcare workers struggling with anxiety, depression, care-giver burnout, PTSD/trauma and substance use disorders.”

Jessica Ekberg – Pelvic Floor Therapist
- Occupational Therapist with over 20 years of experience.
- Worked with clients of all ages, genders, and varying diagnoses.
Jessica Ekberg specializes in trigger point massage. Trigger point massage to release both internal and external muscle tension as appropriate, scar management and soft tissue mobilization, postural movement strategies, bladder training, muscle energy techniques, EMSella, pelvic floor exercises, strength-building exercises, and nutritional consideration.
I have always loved the body and its amazing ability to adapt, heal, and compensate so we can do the things we need to do every day. We often shy away from talking about the bodily functions associated with pelvic health, which has left many people feeling like they are alone and suffering in silence. I know how valuable good health is for quality of life, and my goal is to help you achieve this to allow for a return to optimal functioning as quickly as possible.
Michele Dwyer – Aesthetics Nurse – Affiliated Partner

I have had an interest in skincare most of my life. As a child, my mother was an administrator at an aesthetic institution. As a Register Nurse, I knew how important it was to take care of my skin at a very young age. I am thrilled to bring medical-grade skincare to BioRestoreNH and address the needs of so many while achieving beautiful results.
