What Clients Are Saying
"Almost a year ago, I was experiencing more muscle pain than usual and found Massage Ithaca online. Because managing my muscle pain is important to me, I consistently schedule twice a month with Jennifer and really appreciate her custom massages. Each time I come in, she asks me how my body feels and if there's a specific area that I'd like her to work on. Jennifer has a calming presence and is confident in her skill and knowledge. Her space on Danby Road is peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommend!"

1 month ago"I've had 27 years of massages all over the world and Jennifer's massages are highly skilled have brought me great relief of pain and tension. Her massages are as advertised, and you can tell she's had a decade of experience under her belt. She is very kind and I have no trouble asking for more or less pressure, although I can't recall ever having to tell her because she's very intuitive. She's worked a lot on my neck and TMJ, although I do not live close enough to see her regularly I appreciate when she gives me feedback and recommendations for more work. I absolutely love the ground level space she has in her home, it is well decorated and exceptionally inviting and peaceful, and the parking is great right near the door."

2 months ago"I had a great experience with Jennifer! She quickly found trigger points for my chronic neck and shoulder pain and, in twenty minutes, released some serious tightness that many other massage therapists haven't been able to help with. Looking forward to continuing to work together!"
— Jehan Roberson
4 weeks ago"I came to see Jennifer because I was experiencing pretty severe pain in my jaw while chewing. After one session with her, the tension was dissipated and the pain has been gone ever since (about 2 months ago). I had 5 sessions with her and the relief has been lasting."
— Alyssa Welty
2 months ago"I have been seeing Jennifer for about 7 months for TMD massages and it has done so much to relieve my neck/jaw pain and headaches. Although the process of a TMD massage can be intense, Jennifer always checks in throughout the massage to ensure I am comfortable, and each time I leave her space I feel relaxed and revived. 10/10 would recommend to anyone experiencing TMD problems!"

— Laura Enama
1 month ago"To find someone who may be able to help relieve me of the chronic pain, discomfort and fatigue TMD has caused - I only wish I had made the phone call months earlier. Jen is not only professional, she is kind, compassionate, considerate, respectful, understanding, and truly empathetic to what has been happening to my jaw. Her place of business is quiet and clean; the music beautifully picked, volume set to the correct level. She is quiet and concentrated, when focused and necessary. My only negative is I wish I had started therapy sooner."
— Deb Scott
1 year ago"Jennifer is very friendly and professional and I felt totally at ease throughout the session. She's clearly passionate about her work and takes great care to address any problem areas. Jennifer listened and covered each and every area on my back that I wanted focus on. It was amazing. After my first session, it felt like a weight had been lifted and I went away feeling very relaxed."
— Tony Henderson
1 year ago"Pregnancy massage with Jen was such a wonderful experience. It was so relaxing and comfortable, and she really paid attention to all of my needs. I always left the appointment feeling refreshed, and she would tell me what points of tension she noticed, and what I could try at home to help relieve any discomfort in between appointments. 10/10 recommend."
— Michelle Kober
1 year ago"I had a TMD massage with Jennifer and she is incredibly knowledgeable and talented. The massage was wonderful and she provided many insights about what could be causing the TMD pain. She provided an aftercare guide which has been extremely helpful in the days following my massage."
— Julia Baldassarra
11 months ago"Jennifer is so wonderful! A perfect balance between personable and professional. She will do everything she can to make you feel comfortable and relaxed, and she thinks of every detail. From the heated massage table and warm rice bag, to her choice of music and gentle explanation of how she will care for you, I eagerly wait my appointments with her, and I always leave feeling pain free and relaxed. Highly recommend her TMJ/TMD program."
— Hannah Cannon
1 year ago"A massage with Jen is so healing. You can tell she has a very high level of training and experience. She gave me SO much relief and healed a chronic pain I was having in my neck and shoulder. She's also so nice to be around, with a very calming energy."
— Jason Peckham
1 year ago"Highly recommended! Jennifer is incredible with pain relief, sports massage, prenatal massage and more. I should know since I've seen her for all three! It wasn't until I found Jennifer years ago that I learned that massage can provide *lasting* relief from pain (back pain during pregnancy in my case). She has such a special gift for sensing what people need and making you feel comfortable. I'm also an athlete and rely on Jennifer as a key part of my recovery from hard workouts. She is a wonderful human on top of all of that."
— Liz Hartman
1 year ago"Jennifer is great and truly cares for helping any needs you may have. I've been seeing her biweekly for the end of my pregnancy and wish I started sooner! She makes the whole experience comfortable and relaxing."
— Brooke Phayre
1 year ago"Massage Ithaca was referred to me through my midwife during my first pregnancy. I initially just wanted to experience some relaxation and to lay on my belly again (god bless that pregnancy pillow), which I did! However, at the beginning of my third trimester I started to experience some sciatic nerve pain in my lower back. It was impacting my mobility and I feared that the last three months of my pregnancy would be limited and uncomfortable. Thankfully, Jennifer used her skills and wowed me with just one session. I am so grateful that she was able to assist me with this experience."
— Courtney Lewis
