Iowa Massage Therapy Schools
Body
Wisdom Massage School
8401 Douglas Ave, Ste 2
Des Moines (Urbandale), IA 50322
The philosophy of the Body Wisdom Massage Therapy School is based on
the guiding principle of "wholeness" and the "inner healer."
We believe that every physical imbalance is the result of lack of wholeness
on one or more levels; body, mind, emotions or spirit and that each
individual has an innate connection to their inner healer that can guide
their healing process.
