Jeffrey S. Harris
Dr. Jeffrey S. Harris is the Director of the Migraine Headache Relief Center of Pennsylvania (MHRPA), a pioneering headache and migraine treatment clinic serving chronic pain patients throughout the Tristate Area. Dr. Harris diagnoses and treats pain conditions such as chronic daily headaches, debilitating migraines with and without aura, TMJ / TMD disorders, chronic muscle tension of the head and neck, orofacial pain, and tinnitus (ringing in the ears).
As a healthcare provider whose focus is on the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of chronic pain conditions, Dr. Harris has seen hundreds of patients with a wide variety of both common and uncommon pain symptoms. Each patient he diagnoses represents a unique pain condition because no two patients are exactly alike, Dr. Harris’s goal is to unravel the root causes of each patient’s pain manifestation and select non-invasive treatment protocols best suited to them.
For many years Dr. Harris provided dental services out of his Kennett Square, PA dental office without offering treatments for chronic pain. However, a number of years ago he started noticing that many of his own patients were reporting unresolved pain conditions on their health questionnaires. He began an investigation and determined that many of these patients had been seeking treatment from medical doctors and other specialists only to find medications that could only provide temporary relief. He wanted to understand why these people couldn’t get long-term pain resolution. What he found was eye opening.
Most of the chronic pain conditions reported by his patients seemed to indicate that neuromuscular force problems were involved. He already knew that neuromuscular force problems could be rehabilitated without drugs with the right treatment protocols but few providers offered anything close to what would be required for long-term pain resolution. So he trained, sought the experience of experts and learned how to incorporate neuromuscular dentistry techniques into his practice. In 2011 Dr. Harris opened the Migraine Headache Relief Center of Pennsylvania and has helped many patients live their lives free from chronic pain.
Dr. Harris’s methods involve no surgery or medications. Diagnosis involves computer technologies to analyze the bite forces in the mouth, as well as comprehensive Range of Motion examinations of the muscles in the head and neck. Many patients can be completely pain free in less than 3 months.

Linda Bellin
Every woman dreams of having her own shop, and hardworking, energetic Linda Bellin is no exception. From her start working at (and helping select gift items for) her sister’s farm stand (the famous Filasky’s Produce in Middletown); Linda learned both retail and the importance of taking good care of loyal customers. Her travels in Europe inspired a lifelong love of elegant design.
Linda is no stranger to a drill gun and paintbrush. She loves to find, repair and refinish to-die-for antiques, including enormous gilt mirrors, vintage doors and ornate display tables. Linda’s first shop, Tattered Treasures in Chesapeake City, featured beautiful classical antiques and architectural salvage with French or Italian flair, gift items and jewelry.
That shop gave way to the first CHICK’S, a full-fledged women’s designer apparel shop, always one of the most popular businesses in beautiful Chesapeake City. One step inside and you’ll feel the European flair for great design. CHICK’S uses the coolest display pieces you’ll ever see, from the baby grand piano at the center of the store to creative repurposed display pieces worthy of their own Pinterest page!
As Linda says, “Come and ‘CHICK’ us out…and then have everyone else ‘CHECK’ you out!” You can keep CHICK’S as your personal style secret, or share it with your friends.
Linda, whose faith in ‘putting God first’ inspires all of her life and work, lives in Maryland with her husband Jim and daughter Alexandra. Their son Dennis and his wife Danielle care for beloved grandchildren Zachary and Zoe.
