(she/they)

Jen Wenz Somatics is the private practice of Jen Wenz, MDiv, Certifed Rolfer®, including:

  • Rolfing® Structural Integration: bodywork and movement integration for healing and high performance

  • Ritual Officiation and Ceremony Design: weddings, baby welcomings, and other life transitions

  • Somatic Coaching: embodied healing and transformation for joyful, equitable relationships in action (coming in 2024)

Jen started Jen Wenz Somatics to offer support, accompaniment, and skill to clients as they navigate the changes in their lives and become more fully who they are. 

Rolfing® Structural Integration is a form of somatic therapy in which we use hands-on touch and movement education to deepen self-awareness and free restrictions that limit mobility and cause pain. Rolfing® SI supports clients in gaining greater balance, ease, and trust in their bodies while improving performance and reducing chronic pain from injury, trauma, and repetitive movement patterns. It can also be fun and engaging for those curious to learn more about their bodies and find new possibilities in how their bodies work and move.

Jen's approach to Rolfing® is adaptable, aware, and collaborative; trauma-informed, joyful, and transformational. They love to support clients in accessing the freedom that comes through a deeper felt sense of safety, support and possibility in their bodies. Their intention is for their clients to leave empowered with new options, able to show up in their lives more aware, embodied, on purpose.

Jen is a long-time student of embodiment, fascinated by how the body works and moves. She has been an athlete, dancer, musician, and outdoor adventurer since her youth. She has also been deeply shaped by over a decade of body-based spiritual and healing practices, including Buddhist and Jewish meditation, embodied Jewish ritual practice, Ashtanga and Sanctuary yoga, Somatic Experiencing, and Internal Family Systems. Her recovery from sports injuries and trauma led her, through these many healing practices, to Rolfing®.
