Positive: Professionalism, Quality
Jenn is nothing short of amazing! She knows the body's anatomy well and has a strong intuition for what your body needs. She has helped me with my hips and spine, and has helped many of our other athletes with their needs. We run a strength & conditioning club and she was our in house therapist for years. Thank you Jenn!

This was my first massage in over a year. I, like others, held off any massages due to the pandemic. Although I am fully vaccinated I am still super careful about any kind of in-person interactions, so I asked for a massage recommendation and Jennifer was referred to me by one of my best friends.
I felt so safe throughout the massage and ended up having one of the best massages. I was bummed I only booked 60 minutes but made sure to book a longer one for next time. Jennifer asked great questions to ensure she focused on any problem areas and checked in with me to make sure she was applying the

I am a strength coach who runs Intelligent Fitness, and Jenn is our #1 recommendation for effective deep tissue, specific massage. She is personable, knowledgeable, and always goes the extra mile to assure she completely understands the issue first. Her touch and care is always helpful afterwards, as there are hundreds of joint/pain issues we have worked on together. Through my personal experience as well as our shared clients, she has been the best massage therapist I have ever worked with hands down. Results are always the best way to determine the effectiveness of any kind of training, and

Jennifer is a very knowledgeable and skilled massage therapist. I've been seeing her since August/September of last year, usually for deep tissue massages. What I love about her is that she knows how to tailor the massage to what my body needs and is great at explaining what's going on w/ my muscles/body. She really knows what she's doing and I always feel much better and much more relaxed after the massage. She's professional and also a really cool person and fun to chat with. :)

Jennifer McCluer is one of the best massage therapists I've ever had. She is strong but gentle when she needs to be. Tell her where it hurts, and she'll get in there, and it's very therapeutic! And of course, she can do a lighter-touch massage, if you're looking for relaxation. Also, she's a great person in general, so while I don't want her to book up and be too crazy busy, I want her to be successful. Seriously, see this woman and you won't be sorry!

Jenn is the greatest! I have Parkinson's disease and one of the most annoying symptoms is stiffness all over, especially in my back and wrists. I go to my massage feeling stiff and uncomfortable and come out feeling loose and relaxed. Along with yoga exercises, Jen's massages are adding years of quality to my life.

Jenn is a really great massage therapist. I've had a lot of mediocre massages in my life, and Jenn is one of the few therapists that I've returned to over and over. She is thorough, has great pressure, and really takes the time to understand, treat, and explain your issues. I definitely recommend her!

I've been going to Jennifer for over a year now. I don't write a lot of reviews but she deserves to be noticed. I drive 1k miles a week. I'm an outside sales rep and I have all of Northern California as my territory. Needless to say, I spend a lot of time in my car. Jennifer has helped me work through the pains that have developed through the years of sitting in a car with bad posture. I always get a 90 minute massage and she works out all the various knots that develop from my stressful daily life. In addition, she helped me identify possible causes for the various aches and pains

Jenn has some absolutely gifted hands, excellent intuition and great communication. When I became pregnant, I was sure that I was destined for 9 months of uncomfortable side-lying, weak massages; I couldn't have been more wrong.
Through this crazy transformation my body has undergone, Jenn has provided the most amazing massage experience. Her awesome pillow "system" means that I can lay comfortably on my side for 90 minutes and dread the moment I have to get up (I wish I had this setup for sleeping every night!). Also, she has a gift for honing in on exactly what needs attention

I love Jennifer! And I am super picky about my massage therapists:) She is intuitive, has a firm touch and really knows her anatomy. She is the real deal - a true healer- she can help you get past old injuries - and is always great about recommending exercises/stretches to do at home.I recommend her without hesitation!! Treat yourself now - you will not be sorry

I love this lady! Jenn is truly intuitive, and as an intense recreational athlete, I have looked all over for the right massage therapist. I fully believe that massage is necessary as a self care practice. For someone knowledgable to be able to touch and understand what your body has been going through is an amazing skill, and Jenn definitely has it. I feel that she knows my body really well, and is able to feel what's the same, or what's different when I see her. She has a really lovely touch, and personality wise, she's very down to earth, isn't overly woo woo, but understands

I am a licensed massage therapist with 14 years of experience, and let me tell you, I am extremely picky about my massage therapists. I can say without hesitation that Jenn is an excellent massage therapist. She is talented, skilled, compassionate and professional. She can feel what is going on in your body. She has hands that "listen". You will certainly want to come back for regular sessions. Jenn will help you keep your body feeling its best. I highly recommend Jennifer McCluer.

I hesitate to let this cat out of the bag, but my magnanimous side is winning so I'll share :)
In a nutshell, Jenn is the best. Over the years, I've been a massage client in various capacities - post accident, pregnancy, and just cuz... so I'd like to think I've met enough CMTs to recognize the real deal.
The way my body responds speaks for itself, but aside from the obvious criterion of making a client feel good, Jenn simply knows her stuff -- the science behind the art so to speak.
Thank you for moving your life and your practice to CA from Portland, Jenn... I&apos
