My name is Paris Smith and I am a licensed massage therapist here in Iowa. Growing up, I was a four sport athlete. In my teen years, I had an elbow injury that ended my athletic career very early. Five elbow surgeries and a chronic pain diagnosis later, I knew something had to be done. Massage therapy was my means to pain relief. After high school, I went to Simpson College where I decided to walk on to the softball team after seven years off of playing. Graduating from Simpson, I knew I wanted to help people decrease their pain and get back to moving just like I did. I went to Carlson College of Massage Therapy where I graduated and passed my licensing exam. Coming back from Massage school, I knew I wanted to start my business where I loved the community. I cannot wait to serve the communities of Ankeny and Indianola! Here at Motion Studio , we believe that massage therapy is an essential part of being healthy. Whether you need help getting back into your daily routine or you are wanting to improve your performance and athleticism, we are here to help you do that!
