Program Developer

LMT/CSCS/MOVEMENT SPECIALIST

Hi, my name is Jenny Mapes, owner of CrossFunction Sports Massage. With over 20 years of experience as a movement specialist, personal trainer, and coach, I have conducted sport clinics throughout the Pacific Northwest and featured in Coaches Choice training videos nationwide. I trained for the 2012 London Olympics in the high jump, which catapulted into this career. Since then I've had the absolute joy and privilege of working on thousands of athletes in massage; from weekend warriors to professionals and Olympians.

My passion for sports and sports prehab led me to the massage therapy profession. I have participated in the USOPTC Medical Rotation in 2020 and 2024 and served on the Team USA Sports Medicine team for the World Athletic Championships, Pan American Games, Olympic Trials, Olympic World Qualifiers, National Championships, and more.

I am a proud Duck, graduating from the University of Oregon, a CSCS, ISSA Master Trainer, and honored to have taken my massage training from incredible instructors at Alexandar School of Natural Therapeutics. My goal is to continuously provide the best sports massage possible, and support you in your massage journey; helping you feel comfortable and confident when an athlete walks into your treatment room.
