Licensed Massage Therapist: Pamela Ohrman, LMT

---

Born and raised in St Charles, MO, Pam moved to Kansas City to attend the University of Missouri-Kansas City, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene while playing volleyball on an athletic scholarship. With 27 years of experience working in several dental offices in the Independence/Kansas City area, Pam decided to make a midlife career change. 

In 2010, Pam attended Wellspring School of Allied Health (formerly MTTI) to pursue her certificate in Massage Therapy. During her studies, she developed a keen interest in neuromuscular therapy, myofascial release, medical massage, and deep tissue techniques. As fate would have it, just before completing her studies in Massage Therapy, Dr. Gray invited her to join the team after she had been a patient since 2008. Remarkably, three weeks before her final class, she took the National Boards and passed with flying colors. 

Pam has always been fascinated by the body and its movements, whether it’s from cleaning the house to embarking on 100-mile weekend bicycle rides. She believes the body needs to move purposefully, and she firmly supports the combination of massage therapy and chiropractic care. Knowing she wanted to work in a medical setting and with athletes, Pam collaborates closely with Dr. Gray and Dr. Josh, assisting them in meeting their patients' needs for optimal health. She also plays a role in treating the Kansas City Mavericks Hockey Team. Pam is committed to continuous learning, attending Continuing Education courses to gain hands-on experience and new techniques that help patients achieve their health goals. 

Outside of work, Pam and her husband enjoy cycling long distances and exploring day hikes on the beautiful trails in the Midwest. However, most of their time is dedicated to their two grandchildren, sharing experiences they once had with their daughter. They hope to instill a love for the wonders of nature in their grandchildren, just as they cherish it.
