Although I had taken yoga classes before I had never experienced the true benefits of yoga. With Jessica's help I learned how to truly meditate, be aware of my body's alignment and position, and push myself further than I thought possible. I gained strength, flexibility, and an understanding of how to listen to my body. Yoga went from being just a workout to being a time where I exerted and also renewed at the same time. Yoga with Jessica literally changed my life!

Jessica was my massage therapist for approximately 15 years. I suffer from chronic pain and Jessica’s compassion, patience, and expertise provided me years of relief. Jessica cares about the person—both body and soul. Her loving self comes across in her touch. I highly recommend anyone who needs therapeutic massage and healing.
