MEET OUR TEAM
Jessica Grim
Massage Therapist
Jessica has been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 2003 and brings 20 years of experience to Forrest. She is passionate about helping people relax, unwind, de-stress, restore and feel better in a way that is healthy for the body and mind. Her favorite treatment is The Forrest, our exclusive signature massage. It has everything! A 90min session allows time to concentrate on areas of the body that need extra attention. She also loves all things pumpkin no matter what time of year – there is no season off limits to enjoy a pumpkin spice coffee or a slice of pumpkin pie!
Davie Swartzentruber
Massage Technician
Davie brings a lot of heart and passion to Forrest with over 4 years of experience. She loves helping people with pain management, and decreasing their physical and emotional stress. Everything in the body is connected. Her favorite treatment is The Forrest! It’s a perfect massage with the best smelling oils, hot stones and warm towels. For fun, Davie makes jewelry out of dried flowers and epoxy resin.
Master Esthetician
Hollie is a Licensed Master Esthetician, having received extensive training at Bellus Academy in California as well as an international esthetics certification in Wales. She is highly sought out to offer her expertise. She loves educating clients so they make the best skin care decisions for them. Her favorite treatment at Forrest is the Brighten facial because the AHAs in the exfoliant revive dull, textured, congested skin. Before becoming an esthetician, she was one of the first female Marines to step foot on Afghan soil when she deployed in 2010.
Nail Technician
Shannon loves to help people that physically cannot help themselves, and really enjoys helping people relax. Her favorite treatment is the Forrest Pedicure for that very reason – the hot stone massage is a relaxing addition to soothe away sore muscles. Her sons are the light of her life and she loves spending time with them. She is a sweet and calming presence for guests and a great addition to the team!
Nail Technician
Morgan has loved doing nails since she was a little girl. She is so passionate about her job, she spends her spare time watching nail videos and practicing nail art for fun. She loves making people feel good and look their best! She also went to Esthetician school in Delaware to learn the science behind your skin and caring for it. She dreams of homesteading and living in a tiny home with her family.
Massage Therapist
Rachel has a healthcare background in rehabilitation therapy where she was introduced to massage therapy. She saw how massage not only helped patients reach their therapeutic goals, but also helped them to relax and improve their overall well-being! She decided to become a Licensed Massage Therapist and makes a wonderful addition to Forrest. She is also a huge animal lover and dreams of one day opening an animal sanctuary.
Massage Technician

Her favorite service is The Forrest because of the hot stones and aromatherapy. She loves spending time with her kids, anything Betty Boop and dragonflies!
Ashley Sharp
Owner
Ashley is the visionary behind Forrest. She has been an essential oils educator and entrepreneur for 11 years. She always dreamed of opening a space for people to rest and restore. Now she enjoys seeing the change in people after a treatment at Forrest. Guests often arrive anxious or even feeling guilty about taking the time for themselves and they leave looking so refreshed and excited about what they experienced. It’s so rewarding. She loves spending time with her husband, Anthony, and 2 kids. One of her favorite memories is when they all went to Scotland a few years ago! They would love to have a second home there someday so they can make special memories there every year.
Owner
Nina has been in the medical field for over 25 years and recently retired from managing a surgical practice. She is passionate about natural ingredients and develops all of the products we use for services here at Forrest. She loves working at the front desk and always makes guests feel special and cared for. She is enjoying retirement with her husband of 38 years, David. Her favorite thing is spending time with her daughters, their husbands and her three grandbabies! She also loves coffee, cooking and baking.
Jenna Beard
Owner
Jenna has been an entrepreneur and photographer for over 12 years and loves bringing her creative passion for photography and marketing to Forrest. She jokes around that she’s had massages all over the world (she really loves them!) and believes strongly in the benefits. Her favorite treatment is The Restore, because deep tissue massage is the best. She is also a wedding photographer with her husband, Michael, and mom to a little girl. For fun, she loves renovating her 1930’s Colonial home and sipping on chai tea lattes.
