I was thrilled to learn of a spa around the block from my house in Alexandria's West End. What a welcoming, relaxing, classy, fun, and professional space and spa owner. I first tried a Zero Balancing session, as I'm continually open to experience new things to restore balanced and vital functioning to my body after injuries sustained in a serious car crash many years ago. When Jen told me that this ZB technique helps to remove traumas and insults to the bones, I knew this was the next best step on my healing journey, and my cranial sacral therapist agreed ! Having been a body worker myself for over two decades, I'm particular about who I let work on me. It was evident from my 1st Zero Balancing session that Jen was an experienced and gifted body worker, and I took advantage of one of her discounted series packages for ongoing sessions. When I shared with Jen that I had been living with a reversed circadian rhythm ( up all night, sleeping all day ) for a number of months post a relapse of adrenal fatigue in August 2017, she said she had just the thing for that. We did 3 sessions within a weeks time of a technique called 'Soul Lightening'. Wow ! Not only were my wake/sleep rythmns back to normal, but I also had improved energy levels during my waking hours.

I had three virtual massage sessions with Jen. I didn't have any expectations going into the sessions as this was a very new experience for me. Jen let me know what the sessions would entail and invited me to share any parts of my body that needed support and something that I was working on in my life. From there, she had me get comfortable laying down and led me through an exploration of the body. Jen has a deep knowledge of the body and TCM, which made for a very rich experience. My awareness was led around my body leading me into a meditative relaxation. She worked with the systems of the body to help more my energy and create better body flow. I felt tension leaving my body and found more spaciousness. After the session, Jen had me get up and feel the sensations in my body. I could tell an immediate difference in the tension I was able to release. The emotional work took more time to notice. However, I found myself having profound shifts in my personal life and had significant breakthroughs in healing traumas I had been working with other support. I am so excited to have had the opportunity to work with Jen and would highly recommend her virtual massage services. read more

AMAZING! I did a 3-session package of the Virtual Massage with Jennifer. I can't really describe it, but I'll try. I was a little skeptical at first, but during the very first session I immediately began to get relief from lower back pain as well as neuropathy pain throughout my body. Jennifer tuned-in to my specific ailments with a pre-treatment interview. During the actual session she walked me (talked me?) through a full body massage, inch by inch, from head to toe. But it's even deeper than that. Somehow, she gets into the deeper systems of the body, manipulating energy, releasing tension and enabling the energy to flow. During the first session I had a profound spiritual experience. Not my first, but certainly a joyously unexpected result! After each session my particular "body-ache-of- the-day" was gone, I felt refreshed, calm and centered. Jen has a way of zeroing in on what's going on inside the body, mind, spirit, and getting right to it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

I attended an open house for this spa and had a great time. I really learned a lot and felt so much better after the yoga session. I didn't think I could have done some of the stretches but I was helped through until made it. I was provided some assistance whenever needed. Everyone there was happy. It was such a learning experience for my first yoga session. I recommend this spa to all levels of experience with yoga because all levels were in attendance at that time. We all enjoyed ourselves and I felt so refreshed with energy after it was done. The environment was excellent for a peaceful session. The spa and zen garden were so lovely. The hot tub and sauna add the refreshing touches to a rejuvenating spa session. Try it out ...I know I will be back because I haven't felt this good in years. read more

I didn't know what to expect when receiving a virtual massage, but during the treatment I became very aware that Jen really knows what she's doing and I could feel her energy work through our session and felt a noticeable improvement throughout my mind and body. I came in to the experience feeling very tense and disconnected and came out of it much more aware of my body, much more relaxed, and with many joints releasing throughout my body especially my hips and tailbone, which have been problem areas I have had bother me for months! Jen is a lovely lady and I highly recommend her services. I can tell she really cares about my personal treatment and well-being and wants to help what is uniquely out of line with my body. I would definitely return for another session. read more

I went to Edgy ZEN spa For a zero balancing massage. The customer service was excellent. (5 stars) Jen Is very friendly; she goes above and beyond to make your experience enjoyable. This was my first experience doing this. To me it crosses between trigger points and deep tissue massage. If you are looking for a very intimate and personalized experience, this is for you. A homey like and private environment creates just the welcoming feel. Its beautiful. The sauna is a great place to warm up with varying benefits infrared lights as an option, but not a requirement. Further the spa has other events to bring you more healing. Follow them on social media for open houses. I would recommend this place! 2 thumbs up. read more

After a year of stressful work hours and exhaustion I needed to replenish and release and remove the high level of cortisol my body just wanted to keep like a bad blanket. I tried traditional massage, essential oils, and pills, but they were not enough. I discovered Edgy Zen and WOW! What a wonder! The same day I found myself with more energy, my alignment and stance improved, stomach issues resolving themselves into the following day and finally the feeling of quiet in my own body, mind and spirit. IIt is a few days later and that calmness is continuing, body aches gone and managing stress of work much better. RUN - don't walk for an appointment with Jenn. read more

I really loved having my 3 virtual massages with Jen, she is extremely knowledgeable in anatomy and she was able to help me feel seen, loved, supported, AND RELAXED in our sessions - and for me feeling relaxed is one of my most important values as i'm high energy, and sometimes struggle to relax. I felt so loved on and she was so incredible during our sessions, totally professional, has a fantastic personality and described everything so detailed. I felt relaxed and rejuvenated after our sessions and I look forward to DEFINITELY doing more with her!!! Thank you so much for your brilliance and for sharing your genius healing gifts! Love you Jen! read more

If you've never had the opportunity to do a Zero Balancing with Jen your missing an amazing opportunity. I was feeling out of balance and it was affecting everything I tried to do. One session with Jennifer and I felt like a brand new person. There are not enough words to describe how wonderful I felt, I was back in balance, my thoughts were clear, my energy felt amazing, I had my creativity back. Jennifer has a very unique way of surrounding you with her amazing presence while releasing all the things that are getting in your way and holding you back. I highly recommend scheduling a session with Jennifer and see how amazing you will feel. read more

I have used two services: one passive stretching and three private yoga sessions. The soreness in my arm reduced immediately, and I have increased flexibility now. I knew that I would benefit more from private yoga than from group classes, but I did not expect such a big difference. She can give a discount if you sign up for more sessions at once. I really like that she is communicating with text messages. The place is clean and looks nice. She has a dog, and she puts away the dog when clients are there. Due to busy traffic it can be challenging to do left turn onto or from the driveway. read more

I've had the pleasure of receiving Jennifer's virtual massage infused with acupuncture. When she first offered this, I didn't exactly know how she was going to do this, yet my entire being was a resounding YES. I'm thrilled with my sessions! Jennifer's soothing voice, intuitive skills, massage and acupuncture techniques came through virtually in a way I struggle to describe with words. Jennifer was able to pinpoint a couple of problem areas and I felt everything she was doing and saying. All of this virtually! She's quite remarkable and I highly recommend her services. read more

I absolutely loved my 3 virtual massages! Jennifer overdelivered, she communicated really well what to expect and how the sessions would run. One of the profound realizations I had was that since it was virtual I was 100% in control- this was a really amazing element!!!!!! I had total control while getting an amazing massage facilitated by Jennifer! After the massage I feel so relaxed and so glad to get the body work I needed! I highly recommend you give Jennifer a try to see for yourself what is possible from virtual massage! read more

My session with Jen was extraordinary! I arrived feeling really exhausted and drained and left feeling energized and restored. I was really surprised and how much Zero Balancing shifted me in such a short period of time. It's so efficient and effective! And, Jen is so warm, funny and skilled that I felt comfortable right away. She's very intuitive she knew just how much pressure my body needed to release, relax and rejuvenate! Thanks, Jen. If I lived close to you, I'd definitely be a regular at your spa! read more

Lucky Virginians! I received Zero Balancing from Jennifer while she was in San Miguel de Allende, MX. Jennifer is precise, passionate, and intuitive. Her expertise as an acupuncturist shines through. Jennifer's body work was the first in my 68 years that I did not have to be a director of sorts. I did not have to indicate more of less pressure. She was attuned to what my body needed. Close to the edge at times but never over. I surrendered to her healing touch. Jennifer is a treasure. read more

I got a massage from Jenn and I'm usually pretty picky about my massages and it takes me a few minutes to relax into a massage. I immediately relaxed at the start of the massage. Jenn has a very intuitive touch and knew exactly where all the sore and tense spots were in my body without me saying or pointing. I was very impressed and happy!!! I left the massage feeling relaxed, restored, and clear-headed. I would highly recommend Jenn to my friends. read more

I had the pleasure of receiving a zero balancing session with Jen years ago and to this day I have not forgotten the experience. Jen has a skilled touch and is adept at tuning into the energies of her client's bodies, identifying areas of tension, holding patterns and energy blocks and facilitating their release. She is also an amazing yoga instructor who brings joy and laughter to every class I've taken with her. Thank you Jen for all that you do! read more

I stepped into this oasis numb and drained by life and work. I knew I needed restorative touch and had no idea the gift that was coming. Jennifer is truly a gifted healer. The care and deep wisdom that radiate though her hands are unmatched. My racing mind, troubles and never ending to-do list all melted away as I lay in her table. I felt cradled. I could breathe more fully. I could feel my body again. Massage, sauna and hotub. I'll be back. read more

I was very skeptical at first not knowing what zero balancing was. As a 50 year old man with years of wear and tear on my body from long distance running I thought nothing could help. Boy was I wrong. I noticed an immediate difference in my gate. I also didn't have the familiar aches and pains in my back while sitting at the computer that had become so familiar to me. I highly recommend Jen and her zero balancing session. read more

Edgy Zen Spa is my little oasis. I have had back pain for quite a while and the first time I had a zero balancing session I felt a difference. I had less pain without pain pills. Every time I have a session I feel less and less pain. I have been able to incorporate yoga now!! And the yoga classes are amazing! Acupressure was just as spectacular. Next is the sauna and hot tub for me to try. I love it here!! read more
