Jenn Blakely
How can I assist you today? My name is Jennifer Blakely. As a licensed massage therapist for more than 16 years, I am of firm belief that the learning never stops and you can learn something from even the most novice. In life I’ve had a wide range of leadership roles and found servant leadership is the most beneficial to all parties. I have been a member of AMTA for most of my career. I did have a little break and obviously came back for good reasons! I’m excited to now be a volunteer for the community!
I practice in Paris, Texas and I’m passionate about integrated neuromuscular therapies.
On the personal side of life, I have 6 children, 4 grown and 2 I’m still raising. In recent years I have moved to the country to live on a small bit of land and begin what is called modern homesteading. I have absolutely fallen in love with my chickens.
