Brandt Gutwein first sparked his interest in physical therapy as a young athlete who was frequently injured and required physical therapy on a routine basis as a patient. The desire grew then to be the one who, as a therapist, can help people heal physically while also equipping them with the tools and confidence to return to life as full as possible. Graduating first as a Physical Therapist Assistant and then continuing his education to achieve his Doctorate of Physical Therapy from the University of Missouri Brandt has developed a wide variety of passions and skills within physical therapy. Ultimately he saw the life changing benefit of manual based therapies at the joints and muscles of the neck for chronic headaches and migraines as his primary passion, and now helps people at Novera Headache Center find lasting relief from their once debilitating condition.

Jono Taves first fostered a love for health and wellness as a collegiate soccer player and an exercise science major at Northwestern College. It was then a move to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota where he received his Doctorate of Physical Therapy and developed a passion for helping people find the source of their aches and pains, allowing a more natural healing process. Within the first few years of his career, he noticed gaps in the healthcare system and started to see potential in an overlooked treatment approach for headaches and migraines. Since then Dr. Taves has dedicated his career to the mission of educating and empowering people with headaches and migraines to break free from a life of fear and dependence and thriving in everything they do. This mission stems from years of seeing chronic headache and migraine sufferers find life changing relief from this debilitating problem by providing a simple approach to an overlooked and misunderstood problem. He now is the owner of Novera: Headache Center, one of the country’s only specialty physical therapy centers devoted to helping headache and migraine patients, and the host of The Headache Doctor Podcast.
