Summer was born in Nanning Guangxi China. She was raised in a small country town where she learned the value of a hard day’s work raising food in the fields, on the community farm, for her family and fellow town members.
Later in life she decided to move to the big city of Nanning (6 million people) and build a new career in the cosmetology industry. There she learned to be a very skilled hair stylist and received training and experience in the art of Chinese massage and barefoot massage therapy. After her training was complete, and with some experience under her belt, she under took the great task of becoming the owner of her own hair and massage spa.
She built her business to be very strong for ten years before making the difficult decision to leave her country, family and friends to move to America and start her own family. Together they have three boy and they are all living together in Urbandale Iowa.
After a few years of taking care of her children at home, she realized it was time to get back to her career. She felt very strongly that she would prefer to advance her training and skills in the massage therapy field, rather than furthering herself as a hair stylist. Her decision was based on her desire to help those people in need of relief from their pain, and the content she feels when her client’s needs have been fulfilled. After some deep research on massage therapy schools, it was quite clear that "Body Wisdom Massage Therapy School" was the place where she would receive the best, most intense training for her career.
Summer began her United States massage training in 2010 at Body Wisdom Massage Therapy School. There she received exceptional training in many different modalities of massage therapy: Deep Tissue, Swedish Relaxation Massage,Ashiatsu (Barefoot Back Walk), Jin Shin Do Chinese trigger points, myofacial, positional release, just to name a few. But her passion, and her greatest skill, is her ability to identify problem areas for her clients and relive their pain with her truly skilled hands and her incredible natural abilities in the art of massage therapy.
During her deep tissue training, and along with many, many hours of examining her anatomy teachings, she came to realize her natural ability to find and relieve the symptoms of her client’s problematic areas. This ability has given her the strength and desire to learn all that is possible to learn about sport and injury massage therapy in the hopes that she can be renowned as the best therapist available for her clients in need.

Below is a list of frequently asked question.
If you don't see your question below, feel free to call us at 515-402-7862.
Your massage or bodywork session will take place in a warm, comfortable, quiet room. Soft music may be played to help you relax. You will lie on a table especially designed for your comfort.
Most massage and bodywork techniques are traditionally performed with the client unclothed; however, it is entirely up to you what you want to wear. You should undress to your level of comfort.
You will be properly draped during the entire session.
The practitioner will leave the room while you undress, relax onto the table, and cover yourself with a clean sheet or towel.
You will be properly draped at all times to keep you warm and comfortable. Only the area being worked on will be exposed.
A typical full-body session will include work on your back, arms, legs, feet, hands, head, neck, and shoulders.
A relaxing Swedish massage is often a baseline for clients. In a general Swedish massage, your session may start with broad, flowing strokes that will help calm your nervous system and relax exterior muscle tension.
As your body becomes relaxed, pressure will gradually be increased to relax specific areas and relieve areas of muscular tension.
Often, a light oil or lotion is used to allow your muscles to be massaged without causing excessive friction to the skin. The oil also helps hydrate your skin.
You should communicate immediately if you feel any discomfort so that another approach may be taken.
Massage and bodywork are most effective when your body is not resisting.
There are numerous types of massage and bodywork; various techniques utilize different strokes, including basic rubbing strokes, rocking movement, posture and movement re-education, application of pressure to specific points, and more. We can discuss which methods may be most appropriate for you.
Prior to the massage, feel free to ask the practitioner any questions about the technique or the upcoming session. During the massage, make yourself comfortable.
The practitioner will either gently move you or tell you what is needed throughout the session (such as lifting your arm).
Many people just close their eyes and completely relax, communicating if/when they need more or less pressure, another blanket, or anything else relevant to the session.
If you have any questions regarding the session or about the particular technique you are receiving, feel free to ask.
Most people feel very relaxed. Some experience freedom from long-term aches and pains developed from tension or repetitive activity.
After an initial period of feeling slowed down, people often experience increased energy, heightened awareness, and greater productivity which can last for days.
Since toxins are released from your soft tissues during a massage, it is recommended you drink plenty of water following your massage.
Massage and bodywork can help release chronic muscular tension and pain, improve circulation, increase joint flexibility, reduce mental and physical fatigue and stress,
promote faster healing of injured muscular tissue, improve posture, and reduce blood pressure. Massage and bodywork is also known to promote better sleep, improve concentration, reduce anxiety and create an overall sense of well-being.
Yes. That's why it's imperative that, before you begin your session, the practitioner asks general health questions.
It is very important that you inform the practitioner of any health problems or medications you are taking.
If you are under a doctor's care, it is strongly advised that you receive a written recommendation for massage or bodywork prior to any session.
Depending on the condition, approval from your doctor may be required.
