“Jenna is great at tailoring every session to my current needs. She has such a vast knowledge of Chinese medicine, it is easy for her to be flexible and make sure I get exactly what I need. Her work has had a profound affect on me physically and mentally. With Jenna, I've increased my energy, managed my pain, bettered my nutrition and overall health. I could not have passed my board exams without Jenna's tailored plan which helped to manage my stress and make my energy work for me instead of against me. Jenna is very professional, sincere, and passionate about her work. I highly recommend Jenna to everyone.”

“When I thought there was nowhere else to go, Jenna helped manage my chronic pain and got me back on my bike and enjoying outdoor life again. She has magical hands and a great gift.”

“Jenna is conscientious, genuine, and dedicated to her clients. I had the privilege of working with Jenna through an extremely difficult digestive issue—I had lost over twenty percent of my body weight in four months, my Western physicians had little help to offer, and I was feeling lost as to what else to try. Her warm presence alone was enough to reassure me and help me relax. I can tell that Jenna truly cares about her clients: she was thorough in questioning me about my health history, went to the extra effort to research specific ways to help my particular case, and always listened closely to my concerns.”

“I was skeptical in the beginning, but at a point where I was willing to give almost anything a chance. Being a dancer, my body was always hurting me and I just assumed that was something I was going to have to live with. However, quite miraculously Jenna's combination of acupressure and CST changed all that for me while it also addressed my emotional struggles. Now, that I am in the process of healing from a pre stress fracture, I cannot wait to work with her again!”

“As a nature photographer, having my balance out there in the wilderness is critical. When I came down with vertigo I went to my doctor and tried antibiotics and neck exercises without success. I have to admit, when I went to see Jenna I was a bit skeptical of treatment based non-Western philosophies, but my vertigo improved after the first treatment and disappeared all together after just a few sessions. Jenna not only cured my vertigo, but also opened my eyes to the value of the mind-body connection. I can honestly say that after being treated by Jenna I am a healthier person, both physically and emotionally. Her work is amazing and I whole-heartedly recommend her treatments.”
