Since her early teenage years, Jennifer has always been intrigued by the human body and mind, seeking to better understand the form and function of our incredibly complex and resilient bodies and to assist in creating positive changes and healing with her clients. She began her quest reading about a wide variety of spirituality and metaphysics, trying to comprehend the energetic nature of humanity as well as everything surrounding her, which lead to a deep appreciation of life and nature. After graduating from Shelton High School in 1992, Jennifer attended SPSCC with a focus on the basic sciences and earned her Associate of Arts which she transferred to Evergreen State College. While at Evergreen, Jennifer studied environmental science with a focus on water quality and graduated from there in 1998.
Due to severe staff cutbacks in local state agencies at that time, like Ecology and Fish and Wildlife, she was having difficulty getting her environmental career going and decided to turn her interests to learning more about helping people. So she signed up for massage school at Ashmead Massage School and graduated with honors in 2001. Since 2001, Jennifer has been a private-practice Licensed Massage Therapist specializing in Lomilomi Hawaiian style massage and healing arts. In 2010, Jennifer became interested in Jin Shin Jyutsu both to compliment massage therapy and to help heal her own health projects (JSJ does not refer to health issues as “problems” because of the negative connotation, instead we call them “projects” because projects can be worked on with positive results). After realizing the tremendous benefits of JSJ, she went on to further study and got certified in the Art and now provides JSJ to attain amazing success rates helping clients with peace of mind, body, and spirit - and Jennifer teaches clients simple JSJ tools to help themselves STAY balanced after a treatment.
