Jen Fanning
Owner of EdgyZen Spa
“I speak to audiences about the necessity of Bodywork in America.”
Bodywork is for everyone. Not just the wealthy. Not just the few. Bodywork for the masses. This is the surprising and simple key to resolving so many of the social ills that America is facing today.
Biography
Jennifer Fanning is committed to shifting the perspective on bodywork in America to no longer be seen as a luxury, but a necessity for the health of individuals and society. She advocates for regular bodywork, not just once a year to celebrate a milestone or when you have a gift certificate, but as part of a comprehensive wellness plan that incorporates mind, body, and energy healing modalities. With passionate, often hilarious storytelling and courageous truth-telling of her journey from drug addiction and living on the streets to now running a preeminent health and healing spa in the Washington DC area, Jennifer helps audiences recognize the uncompromisable importance of having regular bodywork in their lives.
There is a health and wellness crisis in our Western culture and it devalues the importance of touch and touch therapies. I want to expand longevity in our communities by teaching others the benefits of touch therapies and provide this therapy to those that wish to receive it. My knowledge and background in Chinese medicine, acupressure, energy healing, body movement, dance, and meditation provide me with a unique perspective on the healing properties that touch can bring to communities around the world.
Why Do I Do This?
I believe our body has been on the back burner long enough. We have ignored our needs and placed others before us. The airlines say to put your oxygen mask on first; this is something WE have to be told to do as women.
