Basking in sunshine and rainbows over here. Fielding the stressors, combing through the tough stuff. Making space. Hitting the pause button. Breathing. βοΈππΈ
FRIENDLY INFORMATIONAL POST πππ₯₯
As I mentioned, we got rid of our website so here's an installment of what you might like to know.
I signed a lease here in 2004 before I graduated from Deep Muscle Therapy School, knowing that this was going to be a long game. And, p**f. 22 years later, still in this location, better than ever, Jamie and I have a stronghold on the greater Newark De community with a reputation for really great work. πͺ I will soon post our profiles so you can have a closer look at our individual strengths and style.
πWe are open MONDAY through FRIDAY, with a general time frame of 9-3pm. No evenings and no weekends. (We did that for decades.)
πWe will not answer the phone. π
But we love voicemails. Please leave us a message and we will text you back.
π«We are by appointment only. Feel free to see what we've got in the short term, you never know. But expect to schedule within a few weeks from your inquiry. It's worth the wait.
πNew client pricing is $125 for one hour and $180 for 90 minutes. On occasion we have the 2 hour people and that is $225. We take cards, cash and Venmo.
πJamie is mostly only folding in referrals from existing clients. You gotta know someone. Get her number from them. I'm happy to have you if you have not been in before, and my number is 302.379.9537. Text me.
π₯Our studio is warm and vibey. We are the opposite of a corporate environment. Sometimes there's a dog here. We have a parking lot, albeit functioning sometimes like the wild west. But it's ours, and it's free.
πI'm proud of The Zen Den. It's an antidote to life's current challenges. Skilled, intuitive, experienced massage therapy for pain and stress management all while supporting WOMEN OWNED LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS. It's so good, and we've dedicated our entire lives to it.
πThank you for reading. If you think we are a good fit, we're happy to have you in our inclusive safe space. Peace. βοΈ -Jennifer

Ahhh, 2026. Letting go of the things that weigh us down. Great segue to say we've relinquished our professional website. π I will probably post a few things to provide context for the people that get routed here to Facebook. Also the x8334 phone number has been removed so don't call that anymore. You can contact us directly, best by text. Less is more! πͺππͺ

Hello friends!
Holidays are approaching so I wanted to give some clarity this year to gift card sales... π²
Jamie is suspending her gift card availability for the time being, she is fully booked and is managing her schedule very deliberately.
I will be selling gift cards to be received by existing clients only, and through an edited version of referral with the ONE CAVEAT that payment be in CASH only. π€π² That requires a stop into the office for an old fashioned hand shake and a smile. Thank you for your understanding, we continue to hold down the corner of our universe with intuition, skill and years upon years of experience. If you have been here or have sent someone over, we are **genuinely*grateful!** β€οΈ Stay grounded, be present, it usually doesn't matter anyway, you are enough, you're better than you think. Lead with softness, forgiveness, surrender to the flow, eat your vegetables, help someone out, just accept that difficult person, you can't change them. Love love love.
Questions, feedback, scheduling, text me 302.379.9537

Time for a Facebook check in I think. And best to post a few things that have resonated with me over the last few weeks. There has been a lot of tumult in the past few years, and I think it's mostly been in an effort to heal deep, ancestral, repetitive, patterned behaviors. But in the end, we only have our singular selves that can draw the lines, make the changes, advocate for our intuitions. I don't really forsee things getting easier from here, so start now with gentle inner dialogue, setting healthy boundaries, practicing heart rate elevating movement, clean food, moderated vices, and spending more time in your community making eye contact, helping those in need, letting go of the tit for tat model of existing and go hug a tree. That's where everything magical exists and the rest is fodder (inferior and readily available material, which I double checked the meaning and that nails it on the head.) Needless to say we are still here, in our 20th year on West Park Place, holding down our mellow, grounded corner of the earth. Take a deep breath, it's time for moonlight, fires, rest and slowing down as the darkness descends and the temperatures drop. It's nature, baby. πππ₯ π - Jennifer

Feeling this! β¨β¨β¨
Jennifer will be in the studio this morning from **930 to 11am*** and from ***3pm to 4pm*** open for gift card sales. Stop in for an experiential gift that reduces stress and helps to create space in a body to thrive. πππThank you and Merry Christmas β¨β¨β¨
πππJamie will be in the office this evening at 530pm for a short while for anyone wanting to purchase a gift card! Cash and Venmo preferred. Thanks and Merry Christmas! Call or text her if you have any questions 3o2.373.7890 πππ

Omg what day/month/year is it! π We're not the greatest at businessy things - the social media, no online booking. Gift cards are analog and you have to come pick them up. It's all a deliberate effort to stay grounded, to be grounded. What we ARE doing BEAUTIFULLY, is showing up for as many people as we can. Our beloved clients. We are thankful for you. All of the referrals, the drive bys, the curious, those in need, in pain, over stressed. We are by far the most experienced two therapists in town and we are doing our best to bring forth your best. So, consider this a hello, a howdy, a check in. How are you doing? Looking into January for appointments, so plan ahead and jump on the schedule. Lord knows the time flies and it'll be here in no time. Do your best to slow down as we approach the holidays and be kind to yourself. With much love, Jennifer and Jamie π²π²π²
