But, Jen is always there greeting everyone with a smile, answers the phones in a pleasant and cheery greet and clients relax in either our massage chairs reading or busily talking amongst each other in the front, hot coffee in hand. Whether its running around keeping everyone on track with time and services or magically erasing the days hair and colour from the floors and bowls, Jen is there!
