Jenny Everett King

The coordinator of Healing Hands Chiropractic’s Body-Mind Wellness program, Jenny Everett King believes strongly in the value of holistic health practices. Her faith in the power of the mind-body connection is the core of her approach to both yoga and childbirth classes. In 2002, Jenny graduated magna cum laude from Saint Anselm College in Manchester, NH, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Studies in the Great Books, a branch of the college’s Philosophy department. She experimented with yoga throughout college, primarily with videos and a very casual practice of her own. However, it was not until taking regular classes that she began to realize yoga’s benefits. A classic “type A” personality, Jenny found that yoga helped her to relax yet increased her energy level. In addition, she soon discovered that a consistent yoga practice, combined with an already active lifestyle, kept her as physically fit as several hours of traditional cardiovascular exercise and weight training each week. The incredible benefits of yoga led her to pursue a career as a yoga teacher. Soon after college, she moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she studied Iyengar yoga intensively under Sara Azarius and several other prominent teachers in the Iyengar system, including Lois Steinberg and Manouso Manos. The Iyengar system of yoga is known for its attention to musculoskeletal alignment and an emphasis on understanding bodily structure and function. Jenny’s classes today are strongly influenced by this training, but also incorporate elements of more flowing yoga styles, including Ashtanga and Kripalu. Jenny is an ExpertRating Certified Yoga Teacher at the Expert level, and continues to study various hatha yoga styles and practices. She is a member of the International Yoga Association, as well as the Manchester Young Professionals Network and the Southern New Hampshire Women’s Business Network. Jenny and her husband have two young children, both born naturally with midwives attending. Jenny has used her twin passions for yoga and holistic family wellness to develop Healing Hands Chiropractic’s childbirth education series, Empowered Birth. Her childbirth educator certification through the Cambridge, MA-based ALACE organization is pending.
