Therapeutic massage and energy therapy appointments can be booked for 60 or 90 minutes. If you are new to massage therapy and prefer a 30-minute consult before receiving massage, initial consultation appointments are available. Often times there is not enough time during your session or the treatment session time is focused in the moment on the work you are receiving and additional self-care suggestion are still needed. Jennifer also offers a 30 or 60 minute self-care consultation appointment for returning patients to discuss self-massage, stretching, and other suggestions that may help you reclaim your power and enhance the massage treaments. Most appointments can be made through her patient portal at gojourneytowellness.noterro.com
