As someone who has dealt with anxiety for years I have been looking for solutions to get the pain out of my body. Jenna quickly taught me 3 simple solutions that I can practice anytime and anywhere. In fact her help was so tremendous that I felt relief in minutes. I will be bringing her to consult with my corporate clients so they can get the win as well. I highly recommend working with Jenna as her solutions are heartfelt and true. She knows what she is doing!

I have been working with Jenna for the past 3 years. We started with massage and then for the past year or more she's been offering me both massage and pilates sessions. I came to see her with various body issues that were creating more discomfort and limitation that I cared to admit. Since I have been coming to see her weekly my body has felt significantly stronger and more flexible and things continue to progress. One example is that I'm the kind of person who believes in alternative methods of healthcare, so I did stem cell therapy for my hip to treat FAI. However after the procedure and basic physical therapy, I was left feeling unsatisfied with my progress. Anyway, I started doing more massage with Jenna. She and my stemcell doctor were both simultaneously suggested I do regular pilates. I was initially resistant and doubted it would make that great of a difference. Over time it has been quite dramatic. I have been enjoying my body's increased strength, flexibility I have also been learning to listen more deeply to what it needs. Jenna has been great at helping me find adaptations to exercises that didn't feel good for my body. She's also easy to be around energetically, and seems to roll with whatever is going on, so the communication is easy too. I have started to really appreciate how different exercises seem to work different parts of my brain and I enjoy her enthusiasm with regularly introducing me to new exercises. The process can often feel playful as I get a bit of a workout at the same time! As far as massage goes, she is also extremely skilled. I have come to really trust her and just relax. This doesn't come easy for me, because in my experiences many massage therapists I've met with in the past do not seem as intuitive or aware of how the body works as she is. It apparently it is part of her training to always be able to explain where she is in the body and what brought her to investigate that particular area. If you are looking for a massage therapist or pilates teacher in the East Bay, Jenna is someone you should definitely consider reaching out to. read more

I've had four excellent massages with Jenna over the last 3 or 4 years; the first one was so wonderful that I remembered it years later, and am now enjoying weekly sessions. Her work is a blend of intuitive, tuned-in subtle work, and dig-in-deep, powerful deep tissue: it's a rare and amazing healer that can move fluidly between soothing your energetic body, and skillfully working the knots out of your shoulders. Simply put, she's the bomb. read more

Jenna was a decent masseuse however her personal style detracted immensely from what should have been a wonderfully relaxing experience. She was not particularly warm and the room I had the massage in reflected that. It was sparse, cold and really uninviting. I won't be returning - there are other much better massage places out there. read more

I want to segregate this review into two parts, bodywork and Pilates instruction, so a reader can find what he or she needs more readily. I have seen Jenna about 4 times for bodywork. I have worked for many years with a Hendrickson Method bodyworker, so I know what to expect from an orthopedic massage. When I see Jenna, it's usually urgent - because my usual person is not available in less than about a month. Jenna has been able to assess and address issues with a number of techniques all brought together, from more typical manipulation to Hendrickson to cranial-sacral. As she also understands scoliosis, the root cause of many of my imbalances, she has a great instinct about where to go and what to do there. I work as hard as I can in these sessions before passing out when she moves me onto my back for a cranial-sacral fop-off, and I walk out feeling better and able to move better every single time. And it lasts! HIGHLY recommended. I have worked with Jenna for Pilates in private Reformer sessions about ten times at this point. (I usually see another Pilates coach at Corpo Kinetics, but sometimes scheduling means I switch.) It's definitely a good thing to mix it up sometimes; Jenna challenges my spinal twist in an appropriate way that increases my range of motion in a different way from my usual Pilates sessions. She explains carefully and monitors position and muscle engagement very directly (get used to having someone put their hands on you to feel if muscles are firing). I work hard and know I've worked muscles I usually shield; I also stretch things that I normally leave alone. Jenna is a great Pilates instructor. And for an added bonus, you might get a little tight muscle release before you start your training! read more

I have been dealing with a chronic medical issue that impacts my range of motion. Jenna worked with me once a week for 3 months and I am moving much better. My medical coverage said physical therapy wouldn't help... but this sure has! The people around me have noticed/commented that I am moving much better ( and I am in less pain) and I am feeling more hopeful about finding ways to address mobility issues while preventing new ones- read more

I've been meaning to write a review for Jenna but never got around to it. However, it's now or never to give credits where credits are due. I've seen Jenna for about 2 years now. When I came to her I was in so much pain with of my degenerative cervical vertebrae. I can now say that I'm almost pain free and able to move my neck around at ease. She's great! She's working with me to improve my health. Highly recommend Jenna to anyone want to have a better body condition. read more

I've had a very positive experience working with Jenna as a bodyworker. She approaches the tensions in the body in a holistic way - to better understand the cause of the pain instead of only focusing on the symptoms. I've received cranial sacral, energy work, myofascial release, and specific work on my jaw for TMJ. I always leave the sessions rejuvenated and pain free. She is very intuitive and present, knowing just where to put her attention in the right moment. read more

My first session with Jenna was very moving and deeply healing. I had worked with a Cranial practitioner in Japan who was excellent. So this was my first session with an American practitioner and I was definitely pleased with the result. Her work included healing of the Chakra systems which I found to be effective. She also has a very soothing and healing energy and presence, and I talked to her about my problems during the session. I felt my energy blockage removed and flowing and more "alive" and in tune with life after the session. I would definitely recommend her to my friends. read more

Jenna is an intuitive and gifted therapist. She knows exactly where to find the places that are knotted up so that she can apply her deep yet sensitive unwinding techniques. My body trusts her work and I feel rejuvenated after our sessions together. I'll definitely go back to Jenna for future work. read more

Jenna is an amazing massage therapist and I highly recommend her. I believe that she is a true professional brining a lot of intuition into her work. Jenna is one of the best massage therapist I have ever known! read more

Jenna is great. I was completely new to Pilates when I started and was not sure what to expect. Jenna is knowledgeable and thoughtful and tailors my workout to make sure I am challenged but not uncomfortable. In addition to building my flexibility and core strength, she got me through a bad case of plantar fasciitis with special exercises and stretching. She takes a holistic approach to health and fitness and has come up with a plan for any target areas I have needed to work on. If you are a novice, no worries, Jenna is incredibly patient and supportive. I really look forward to our weekly session and highly recommend her. read more

Jenna is a very well trained instructor. I've taken a number or private 'Pilates Reformer' classes with her. She was always very professional, calm, and very detailed and descriptive in instructing me during the lessons. I highly recommend her as a Pilates teacher!! read more

It is so nice to find a bodyworker that really knows what they are doing!! Jenna worked with me on some recurring lower back pain. She was very knowledgable about the body and how it moves and was able to pinpoint issues that might be causing the pain and work with me on strengthening weak areas, poor habits and balancing flexibility. She really listens and is an intuitive, educated healer. I highly recommend! read more

Jenna's an intuitive, talented healer. She has a remarkable ability to feel into what's happening in my body and bring caring focus to the places that hold tension, and invite open release and change. After my session, I felt lighter, freer, and more flexible. It's amazing how subtle energetic changes can make such a big difference. Highly recommended! read more

Jenna is pretty amazing. I have a hip injury and spinal stenosis that have been causing me pain for quite some time. I'd prefer not to have surgery so I have been looking for other ways to deal with it. Physical therapy and Pilates reformer have been helpful but I still have painful moments that stop me in my tracks. I went to Jenna for the first time this weekend and did a private Pilates session with her followed by a massage. WOW. For the first time since I developed the stenosis I was actually pain free. I have had some pain again since then but I am confident that if I continue working with Jenna I will be able to find the path to a pain free life. I highly recommend her. read more

One of the best massages I've had in a long time. I think I fell asleep?!

I have had a recurrent pain in my elbow - commonly known as tennis elbow though I don't play tennis. In after just 1 session with Jenna, my elbow pain decreased significantly - mostly gone. She gave me some gentle exercises, and suggested I come back again since the improvement with 1 session might not last. She was right about that - I returned to her a second time, and it really turned the problem around. Her work is very gentle - it almost feels like nothing is happening, until you go home and realize that the sharp pains are not there anymore. I highly recommend her. read more

Completed relieved my shoulder pain that i had been experiencing for days beforehand! She's got the magic touch. I'm very grateful to have discovered her abilities. She does deep and structural work on your body, while seamlessly making it feel great and flow with relaxation. I was amazed at how good I felt afterwards! read more

Jenna understands the body better than most! She's a skilled Pilates instructor and bodywork therapist. She makes coming back so enjoyable and pushes you to where you thought you couldn't go. Given her background in both bodymovement and massage therapy she's simply got the right background to help those in need of moving through injury and pain to those looking to push their body to the next level. She's wonderful! read more
