Since 1989, Serola Biomechanics, Inc. has been spearheaded by its Founder and Co-CEO, Rick Serola, whose dedication over more than three decades has revolutionized the field of musculoskeletal health. The journey began with a significant observation that sacroiliac joint stabilization led to increased muscle strength and reduced pain across the body. This finding prompted extensive research into biomechanics, challenging traditional manual therapy concepts and leading to the development of innovative theories. The resulting breakthrough products, created to address gaps in the marketplace, have significantly contributed to understanding and treating back injuries. Dr. Serola’s unwavering commitment to education and innovation has driven efforts to enlighten healthcare professionals and the public about the pivotal role of the sacroiliac joint in the musculoskeletal system, with a lifelong focus on pain relief and prevention.
Jennifer Tow, BFA, MA, IBCLC, LMT, CSOM has practiced holistic lactation and guided parents in raising their children holistically for over 30 years. A fascination with the physiology of wellness has led her on a 35-year journey exploring the influences on infant health that come to define long-term well-being. Her interest is in navigating the far-reaching implications of epigenetics and the microbiome, gut-brain health, airway function, and oral functional competency to breastfeeding dyads.
While residing between the USA & France from 2010-12, Jennifer established an international client base and has practiced virtually for over a decade. She specializes in collaborating with her clients in resolving complex breastfeeding challenges, such as dysfunctional feeding (including oral restrictions), metabolic dysfunction leading to dysregulated milk supply, compromised gut health that often results in food intolerances, and working with committed families to bring older babies back to the breast.
With extensive training outside the field of lactation, as well as a Master’s in Holistic Health Coaching, her reputation for guiding parents through these issues stems from her ability to integrate holistic modalities and an expanded skill set into her practice. Jennifer is a licensed massage therapist (trained in CFT and studying ortho-bionomy) and a certified myofunctional therapist (working with all ages, but especially with adults and children 2-5).
She is a writer and lecturer, offering workshops internationally and via webinars on breastfeeding & epigenetics, gut health & healing, tongue-tie & airway development, and holistic breastfeeding practices.
