PAMELA ANNE SCHWARZ, LMT/NMT
I am a Neuromuscular Therapist with a private practice in Jacksonville, FL and have also travelled on the PGA Tour with some professional golfers. Therefore, I have a variety of clientele from the very fit to the very ill. I specialize in the alleviation of chronic pain and the correction of dysfunctional biomechanics. One of the things I do is help people understand how they can improve their health at home so that they can be actively involved their healing process. I spend much time researching on what can help most. Have you recently noticed that you find Omega 3's on all the top "must have" health lists and even added into many common foods? Omega 3's have been shown to be the No. 1 resource our bodies need to aid in improved digestion, overall cardiovascular health, and weight loss. All of this can be achieved without dramatically changing an existing diet.
I was born in Aberdeen, Scotland, raised on the Jersey Shore, and lived up and down the East Coast of the US and even in Hong Kong. I have witnessed and learned from many cultures that there can be non-traditional answers to life’s issues and that you should review all options before making decisions, especially those that pertain to your health.
I lost my father and pop-pop to cancer when I was 13 and 15. I wanted to help other people and their families not suffer. So, I majored Pre-Med/Biochem at UMASS Amherst. It quickly became apparent to me that Western medicine mindset was to treat AFTER someone had become ill rather than finding a way to prevent the disease from happening in the first place. Dissatisfied, I got a job in Boston and went to Harvard at night, studying Linguistics.
Through experience, time, and training I built my neuromuscular therapy practice. I was very happy with my life, career, and practice, just as it was. Little did I know that it could get so much better. That's when I was introduced to this Amazing Omega 3 Miracle Seed, Mila. Because of the differences I have seen in patients, my family, and myself, it furthers my desire to promote natural healing focused on provide what the body needs to heal itself.
From my personal experience, I decided that I had to share this with others. I want to advocate a healthier lifestyle to possibly prevent those debilitating illnesses and diseases, especially in the world where there are so many like me who did not even know where to turn to get that healthier lifestyle. And I am talking about something that will easily fit any routine, because it is as easy as enjoying your meal with a little sprinkle. This still absolutely amazes me!
My husband, Andy, and I have 4 sons; and I refuse to allow any of them to become statistics. I would say the same for any of my patients as well. This fires my passion for healthful living; and Mila is the fuel.
Watch your thoughts, they become your words.
Watch your words, they become your actions.
Watch your actions, they become your habits.
Watch your habits, they become your character.
Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.
"If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change."
Before you continue, let me say that I am humbled by the kind and loving words my patients have shared with me over the years and honored to participate in their healing. Let me also profess that all this glory goes to God. I am merely a servant using my gifts and talents. Blessings. Pamela :o)

"My Healer, My Friend: What can I possibly say? When I first stumbled upon you, I had just willed my way out of a wheelchair in which I had spent two agonizing years. The medical establishment had given up on healing me and had begun focusing on merely managing my pain. A single spark of stubbornness remained in me. I had to give myself one more chance @ getting better before I could no longer attempt it on my own. After a few lonely and difficult months, I made it into a gym. Not just any old gym, but the one you happened to work in. When my fitness instructor suggested I see you, I had no more expectations than one does when they see a massage therapist. So, that initial visit, you corrected a shoulder problem that I had been carrying around with me for almost 20 years! TWENTY YEARS! Can you imagine my astonishment? My excitement! My hope! That same evening I sat and cried, thinking about all those doctors I traveled the country to see. Their famous hospitals, their enormous bills, and ultimately their negative prognosis. Earlier that day I was a woman with a termination date. And as I sat there, I realized I was a woman with hope, and better -- with a plan. The light at the end of the tunnel seemed that it may just fade. I began to feel an extreme sense of relief. I could almost sense a little of the burden being lifted. I truly believe that you are a gift to me. Now that we are familiar with each other, you help with more than just my physical problems. Each time we meet, you always have a smile. You lend an ear and are very sharing of your spirit. It beams from your eyes. Over time, you have come to be more than my healer, you are also a friend. I know that I can never repay all that you give to me. But I hope that in some way you look at me with a healthy sense of accomplishment. It there is one thing that I can give you -- it's the knowledge of just how much you have meant in my quest for living. You will always have a soft spot in my heart. I hope that you continue to take time to replenish your spirit. It seems that the time you spend with family is renewing for you and I'm so glad that you appreciate them as much as you do. Sometimes I worry about you as you are so giving and sharing with your spirit, but you seem to watch out for yourself. Keep it up. :o) I thank God for leading me to you and I thank you for all your efforts in healing me. May God keep you and yours in His watchful grace. If you ever need a friend . . . or I can return any favor . . ." Your Patient, Your Friend, Karyn K.
"Thank you for your healing hands. You are truly a person who cares a great deal for those who are in pain. You are passionate and professional about your work and you have a great love for helping others. You are well appreciated by me. Buy my appreciation goes much, much deeper than a mere thank you. It is such a comfort to know that when I am in pain I can turn to you and actually receive relief. Relief from years and years of pain and suffering, something doctors, chiropractors, and physical therapists were never able to achieve. But you have something special. Something none of those other healers could ever possess. The joy you receive from your work and your passion for helping and healing others far outweighs any monetary value you could ever receive. Your love for others outshines all the stars in the universe. Therefore, on that note, I pray that you take great care of yourself and your own needs so that you may continue always to help heal others. P.S. I got an "A" in chemistry!" Love always, your friend, Linda P.
"Dear Pam: As I always tell you, you are an angel with a very special gift of healing. I have seen several neuromuscular massage therapists and you are the BEST! Not only do you heal my body with your touch, but you bless my spirit with your caring concern and your love. I appreciate you so much! I pray that God will continue to use you in such a miraculous way and bless you richly, as you deserve. You are truly a blessing and a great friend!" Love always, Belinda H.
"Pam: It has been a wonderful pleasure knowing and working with you. I can say without question you are one of our world's great healers. Keep yourself centered through this, and every change that takes place in your life. You have a kind heart and you are very focused and strong. This is the end of on chapter in your life, but the beginning of a new chapter. Remember, God never closes a door without opening another. You have not only helped me in many ways, you have helped every client that I have sent your way. Wherever you go, I will continue to stay in touch and will send my clients to you." Your friend, Terri C., personal trainer and body builder
"Pam: You have helped me so much that simple words don't seem enough! I was so used to being in pain all the time and now it is absolutely wonderful not feeling that anymore. You truly hav worked a miracle for me. THANK YOU!" Kathy D.
"Something special has been granted to you from above. I cannot say or write in words how much your particular craft has helped me. Know this, if myself or anyone I know needs help, I would not hesitate to send them to you. Keep the God-given talent going. Thank you so much." O'Neal, Personal Trainer
"Pamela: I think you are a very powerful and insightful person and you're gifted beyond your education. You have definitely made a difference in me because of that. I really appreciate what you've been teaching me and sharing with me so that I can rely on myself in the future -- especially with my face!!! I give you all the credit for that - Thank you for being you! P.S. My neck is yours -- ha ha :o) P.P.S. On an even more personal note -- Congratulations Aunt Pam -- the reason I "will find peace" over and over again is because I've learned to seek God -- Jesus -- over and over again -- Remember that in all your days -- Sincere thanks." Gloria B.
"Pam: You are such an insightful and passionate person. These traits have inspired me while I've continued through my own studies in medicine. I've met so few people in this world as amiable as you. Maybe "amiable" isn't the word; maybe it's "true". You are true to yourself and to others. Your inspirations and healing have spread through my life in more than just my physical body; you've reminded me of my own purpose and calling. I hope my life will be as impactful on others' as yours has been in mine. Meeting you has truly been an answered prayer. May God bless you, and your family, tenfold what you've blessed me." Much love, Melissa H.
"I have CFS and Fibromyalgia and Pamela's sessions have significantly helped the pain. I've also begun to realize that I need to heal myself, that I alone truly have the power to recover from these diseases that have plagued me for almost a decade. Thanks, Pamela!" Marcie P.
"Dear Pamela Anne: Hi, Sweetie! I just have a few things to say! (Although I think I could write a book!) You came into my life when I really had no hope of getting better. In my past I had a few accidents, and a few shitty doctors. After X-rays and MRI's along with lots of physical therapists, no hope and a lot of money spent with tremendous pain. They all told me nothing was wrong, but I knew better. One day, my biological father was watching over me and Eric grabbed your brochure. That day changed my life forever. Pamela, you know I used to have headaches every day because of my back. Now, I really never get one! That's HUGE! :o) You have taught me so much about my muscles and attachments. And also about my true self. You've taught me pain management and most of all you taught me to have hope again and how to know that I'll be great eventually. I have tons of faith that one day soon I can live pain free and able to do anything I used to! It's been a lot of hard work and dedication on both our parts! Pam, you are a natural healer and I thank you so much for everything you do! You've helped me physically, spiritually, and mentally. Your strength has helped me to learn that I can overcome anything that's thrown at me. You Are a Very Important Person in My Life! You kept me last year from getting Botox injections. and taht was just by my fiance giving me your card. I used to cry all the time because of the pain and the fact that I am only 20, imagine how I would feel if I didn't have you at 20 or 30 years from now?!! Pam you're the greates! I wish I could repay you! I know no matter where I end up moving, I will always come back to visit you and have you forever heal me! I know I can never have someone else work on me because of the trust and love I have for you! If you ever need anything, let me know! I cherish and admire you and thank GOD for the chance to know you and accept your guidance for all things. I can never thank you enough for helping me, being there, and everything. I love you so much Pam and Eric and I consider you family and wish them and you the very best for all of time! You are a great person/NMT! Thank you for your healing!" Your life friend and patient, Alicia B.
"Dear Pam: I was impressed when I met you for the first time. Frankly I liked your professionalism, your knowledge, and noticed the cleanliness of your therapy room. On the other hand, I was apprehensive that you could reduce the pain and lengthen my leg through muscular treatment. I have a short leg due to a bicycle accident about 10 years ago. As a result I had pain 24/7, walked stiff legged, and had my left shoes with 5/8" risers on left. In just 4 sessions you have adjusted my muscles to EQUALIZE both my legs and today I can walk with regular shoes and with at least 50% reduction of my daily pain. I am fully confident the pain will further reduce as we continue treatments. I am also hopeful, as you said, the muscles have memory and will continue to stay as they now are. To me, my family and friends, you are an angel from Heaven and now you are helping my wife. Could anyone ask for more?" Max B., 90 yrs. old.
"After having had 4 sessions with Pamela, I am happy and amazed at the improvement I have experienced with the neurological problems I have had for 15+ years. The tremors in my hands were improved after the first session and are now improved to the point where I can write. My general wellbeing is improved and I plan to go on a maintenance program where all I have gained will not diminish. Pamela is a loving and caring person. She is well educated in her profession and with her God-given talent to help others. Thank you, Pamela, for all you have done for me. God Bless you! P.S. Even though my handwriting is poor, I could not write at all a month ago! Praise the Lord." Millie F., 80 yrs. old.
"Ms. Pam: Just to say "Thank you". Your sessions have been great. As I tell everyone "Pam has magic hands". Hands of healing, caring, and kindness. Thanks for all the help and "listening". May God always have his angels looking over your shoulder." Wm. M. K.
"Dear One: At a time when I was injured and feeling vulnerable, I was led to you for healing. What a beautiful experience I've had and what a gentle healer you are. What I most appreciate about you is your intuitive knowing. What a blessing you are to have known just the right thing to do to ease my suffering. I feel so much better. Thank you for your gentle spirits, your "momma" hugs, and most of all for your friendship." Danielle F.
"Pam: Well, what does one say about you. I guess as life evolves, we meet certain people in our lives that have some effect on someone individually. In the case of myself, you never cease to amaze me. With every experience that I have working with you, the more I learn about myself and you. The help that you have bestowed on me has really transformed me into another person, a person that is more balanced, and that in my profession is a big plus. Thank you for the opportunity of getting to know you and many thanks for the wonderful work that you have done." Stephen A., Professional Golfer
"Pam: A note to let you know that you have provided me the best therapy I have ever received for my hip problems. Thank you for introducing me to nutrition and encouraging me to use it despite my skeptism. Thank you for all your patience and understanding with me." John O.
