Jessica Otten is Bay Area born but had the good fortune to spend 15 years living in England. She moved back to Berkeley in 2000 not long before starting her massage career studying at McKinnon in 2001. There she has studied multiple modalities both Eastern and Western. She has also studied and assisted extensively with the Upledger Institute findling a personal resonance with the lighter touch modality of Craniosacral Therapy and Somato Emotional Release. She has a vibrant private practice in Berkeley where she welcomes all who seek to find health and healing through intentional touch. She steeps her practice in the knowledge that the body has so much to tell when you can sit and quietly listen. Being able to support the body’s wisdom to help the client come to a place of more ease is the cornerstone of her work. When not in her studio Jessica can be found hiking in our beautiful parks, by the ocean or curled up with a good book, usually accompanied by her two dogs, husband and 16 year old child.
