Jen is a healer in the truest sense of the word. Ā I had been receiving acupuncture for a couple years before meeting her. Ā When I decided to switch and receive treatment from her, my results were so much more pronounced. Ā I had relief much faster, also. She is a caring person that has helped me in so many ways.
