We had the good fortune of connecting with Charlene Jackson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Charlene, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
I pursue the career of massage therapy to help others understand the importance of taking care of your body on the outside as well as the inside. Through massage therapy you can lower blood pressure, helps you sleep better, help with muscle spasms and cramps, help with range of motion, help with stiffness and much more as we age. As we age we experience a lot of different changes through life dealing with aches and pains within the muscles and this makes life a little easier for the body.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I’ve been a massage therapist for 10years and started my business in 2017. I have a nice, clean and relaxing suite. It’s me and Desiree Harrell who’s a great massage therapist that works with me and Kwan Duncan a amazing esthetician that offers facials and waxes. Charlene’s Massage Spa and Wellness offer Swedish massage,Deep Tissue Massage,Prenatal Massage,Scalp Massage,Couple massages, Warm Bamboo Massage,Post op Lymphatic massage,foot therapy massage, body sculpting, facials, waxes and we have a walk-in sauna. We also have gift cards you can purchase at the spa and E-gift cards you can purchase online through our booking site at www.massagebook.com/me/Charlene-jackson.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
The older I get my fun changes lol. I love movies so swamp fox will definitely be the go to. I’m a foodie so love to eat! I would say I love bird nest downtown Florence and I love and Mi Terria San Jose Mexican Restaurant, also mellow mushroom.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to dedicate a shout to my mom Janice who’s my biggest supporter and my family and friends that shows up when I need them. My boyfriend Rahif who helps put everything together in the spa and help out when I need him and always there for me, my therapist Desiree because she is just so awesome and go above and beyond for the business and my cousin Tamara for believing in me from day one. I’ll also like to thank my loyal customers that’s been with me for years letting me taking care of them and referring others.
