Sherri L. Brown LMT, MTI

MT #: 036869, MTI #: 3120
Like many massage therapists, Sherri has worked across several industries. Since age eighteen, she has held and maintained two cosmetology licenses, earned a degree in Fashion Design from UNT, and completed two associate degrees at Tarrant County College in General Business and Health Information, along with her Registered Health Information Technician (RHIT) certification.
Early in her health information career, she saw the impact of massage therapy when her dog, Indy, was injured. After receiving a poor prognosis and being told there was no deep pain response, Indy recovered to about ninety-five percent within nine months. Years later, Sherri became a massage therapist and began working part-time.
Her career spans cosmetology, fashion design, medical record coding, and massage therapy. She later became a massage therapy instructor and taught at Tarrant County College for ten years.
Her experience in coding gave her a strong foundation in anatomy and physiology, pathology, and kinesiology—the study of human movement—which she uses to help students understand how the body responds to massage.

Kaleb Lechowicz, LMT

MT #: 143451
Hello, I’m Kaleb Lechowicz, LMT, and I have been working as a massage therapist since the fall of 2023. After graduating, I began working at a chiropractic clinic working with patients to achieve functional and measurable improvements to their well being. In the Spring of 2025 I began my own practice in Crowley Texas where I continue to work with clients one-on-one, implementing all that I’ve learned through experience and continued education. In the Fall of 2025 I began instructing the Health and Hygiene class at Kneaded Wellness Massage Academy and found a new passion for sharing my knowledge and experience with those just beginning their journey into the field of body work. Around the same time, I began working with my original passion, hospice patients, to provide peace near the end of life and ease the physical hardship that often comes with it. In the future, I hope to continue to develop and improve myself and others through first-hand experience, hard work, and reflection.
