About Me

Hello! My name is April Hardy, I am a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) and owner of Sunshine Massage & Wellness, LLC. I grew up a native to central Iowa, and the youngest of three daughters. As a child, my Parents would tell me I had the ability to brighten any room and so I received the nickname “Sunshine”. I have been married for 17 years with two beautiful, wicked-smart daughters. When I’m not working I enjoy reading, practicing yoga, traveling, and spending time with my friends and family. 

Prior to becoming a LMT, I was an Early Childhood Educator. I decided to take the journey of massage & wellness in 2021 as I felt called to use the strong hands God gave me, as well as my bright personality. I believe everyone should take care of their bodies and I will work with you to assist in that process.

I graduated from Body Wisdom Massage Therapy School in 2022 and received my license to massage in Iowa. I have since then been asked to return as a Clinic Instructor at Body Wisdom. I also work for Personal Best Massage, going to assisted living centers in the Des Moines area. I am certified in modalities such as: Therapeutic (Swedish), Warmed Bamboo Massage, Reflexology, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, and Positional Release. 

If you’d like to set up an appointment you can do so online, by email, call or text. I look forward to hearing from you!
