Being Well Muscle & Massage Therapy

My husband found this wonderful lady for me on the Internet of all places! I really needed very specific bodywork… namely PUSH. She is marvelous and very in tuned with your body. Even if I don’t say something feels tight, as soon as she comes across is she acknowledges it. She’s a very intelligent and intuitive.

I met Jennifer in 2000 where she donated her time for a fundraising event. I was in the middle of working at the event, about to get a monster migraine, and Jennifer walked up to me and asked if I had a headache. Yes, she’s that good. I told her I was about to start a migraine, and she asked if I would be willing to allow her to try and keep it from taking hold. OH PLEASE! I have to crawl into a dark, quiet, smell-​free place and sleep in order to survive my migraines, and I did not know how I could do that in the middle of a spa oriented fundraising event! She carefully placed me on her seated massage chair and began the most gentle and effective treatment I have ever encountered. No drugs, no dark room — and best of all — no headache!!!
Needless to say, 13 years later, Jennifer is my therapist of choice. She’s dealt with every other ache from daily survival, a motorcycle crash, or just my need to walk out of her little studio feeling like Jello and without a care in the world.
I guarantee that her innate ability to sense from your body’s cues to find the root of your problem will serve you well. I will say it again — she’s that good.

I have been a client of Jennifer’s for more than 7 years.
During all this time, her healing touch has helped me with a myriad of discomfort and pain: from the occasional stiff shoulders from spending too many hours over the computer, lower back pains from the oh so cute high heels that I couldn’t resist, migraines from too much stress at work, to a debilitating injury that I sustained from an accident — and everything in between. Jennifer spends time listening and understanding my ailments, and works with me to restore a pain-​free existence. She’s caring and exceptionally talented. I highly recommend her!

I have had some serious and debilitating episodes of back and next pain over the years. When it happens, I can’t get out of bed, I have to take prescription pain killers (all Kaiser was good for) to get through the day, and it lasts for days. It happens once every year or two and it’s a real nightmare.
I have a scoliosis so I guessed that I had some kind of spinal nerve problems. This thought terrified me of course because I’m only in my 20s and have a long way to go.
A few years ago, between episodes, I was having the regular back pain that sometimes leads into the debilitating pain. Getting a massage as a way to alleviate the pain never crossed my mind. But one day I was just feeling general soreness so I thought I’d try out a massage. I found Jennifer and went in for a consultation and a session. She was super warm and friendly right off the bat. She started by asking all kinds of questions and learning everything relevant about my body. Then we began.
I was laying on my front and she had worked her way to my right hamstring. She says «I found something here and it’s probably what’s causing your back pain.» I though to myself, yea right fat chance. Well she worked that spot out and I left feeling better than I did when I came in but still with the same back pain. That is until I woke up the next morning. The pain was gone! The pain that I had woken up to every morning for years had absolutely vanished. O M G
Jennifer is about so much more than just massage. It’s really about learning more about your body than you ever knew before. I learned that it’s my muscles that cause all my pain. She always gives me new techniques and things I can do at home between sessions to help myself out.
Jennifer has been my massage therapist ever since I met her. I actually never had a massage therapist before I met her. And I have to say she really changed my whole perspective on what massage is all about. I thought it was as simple as you go get a massage, it feels good and it’s relaxing and it’s as simple as that. Boy was I wrong.

I did not know Jennifer well before having a massage with her but she made me feel as if we’d know each other for years. I was at ease and very, very comfortable which is important to me.
I was also impressed by her warm and peaceful studio, I could have stayed all day and napped! I love Jennifer’s technique and have had two massages now. I will be back!

Jennifer Allaire has a wonderful gift with her hands. She is compassionate, professional, and genuine and someone who I know that I can trust to deliver. She combines experience with a fine intuition and sensitivity to provide her clients with a well refined, enjoyable healing experience. She listens well and can adapt the depth at which she works to the needs of her clients, both male and female.
Basically, if you need a massage… go see Jennifer… it’s as simple as that!

So, I am not sure if there are other massage therapists that also work under the umbrella of «Being Well,» but I just had my second massage with Jennifer Allaire, and this woman is amazing. I will be back!
I’ve had 2 60-​minute massages with Jennifer and they were fantastic. She really understands physiology and her approach is truly therapeutic, which sometimes means not comfortable, like when she is really working out the adhesions and kinks. But it’s the kind of massage that gives you lasting results, week after week. It’s not a spa experience, but that’s not to say that the location leaves anything lacking. It’s always clean and warm and comfortable and I love that she uses an adjustable table to maximize what she can do for her clients (the table goes higher or lower and other variations). She’ll work with you, whatever you have going on – she’ll find the position to get at what needs work.
