After pulling something in my lower-back, meets-hip, meets-butt area I went to a generic, local place for a massage. It did nothing. Oh well. Then I went to see Jennifer. Wow. I’m convinced she’s one of Alameda’s best kept secrets. This was not a fluffy, spa massage. She got in there. She moved stuff around. She worked on all the places connected to the places that hurt. She’s been practicing massage for a long time — and I could tell. When I asked her why there was so much difference between my two massages, she told me it’s because she’s obsessed with joints. I felt SOOoooo much better. That massage was amazing. The pain I had felt for days was almost gone and I was given a list of stretching and remedies to try. So impressed.
