Jana is, hands down, one of the best massage therapists I've been to (and I've been to tons). She's very knowledgable of the body and her massages are the perfect combination of being both therapeutic and relaxing, which is exactly what I need.
She also has a lovely space and her prices are very reasonable for what you receive. I wouldn't hesitate - book a massage with Jana now!

I have known some excellent massage therapists, but Jana Leslie is truly the best of the best. She made a major difference in my recovery from frozen shoulder, first on the right and later on the left. When I had a wrenching upper back injury, it is because of her work that I could find relief and was able to sleep. As a physician (and rheumatologist) I was further impressed by her extensive knowledge. In addition Jana has a professional, caring and delightful manner.

I wish there were more stars, to truly express how great this massage was! Look no further, Jana's skills are topnotch. She is truly talented, and a kind compassionate person holding space for what you need. The office is lovely, quiet, immaculate and peaceful...what more could one want. Excellent massage, service and atmosphere. GO!

Jana is amazing! Both my husband and I have gone to her and walked away feeling refreshed and revitalized! So thankful she’s in Walla Walla.
My husband has always been on the fence about getting a massage. After one session, her ability & knowledge far exceeded his expectations.
Will certainly go to her again and will refer her to everyone!

Jana was great! I had been going to the same massage gal in Portland for years, and wasn't sure what I was going to find when I moved to Walla Walla. I was very happy to find Jana. She knows lots of different techniques, and has a beautiful and peaceful studio, and her prices are reasonable. I would highly recommend her.

Jana is amazing! I'm so happy to have found a massage therapist that really knows her stuff. Both my husband and I have gone to see her and we both agree that it was an amazing experience. She found sore spots in places we didn't even know existed! I have a very physical job and it's great to have someone who can keep me going!
