Summer Carr
Massage Therapist
Summer has been a licensed massage therapist since 2015. She sought out a career in massage to learn more about the human body and to help people feel more comfortable. To make herself stand out in the sea of wellness therapists in Asheville, she attended an intensive four-month course in Costa Rica, with teachers from all over the Americas who were there to share their craft. The same year she took the Mblex, getting licensed in the state of North Carolina as a body massage therapist.
Since then Summer has continued to make herself stand out by attending courses close to the source. In 2019 she traveled to Maui to learn from a native on their style of massage, Lomi Lomi. Totally inspired, it has changed her practice.
Summer says: “Every body type deserves a massage!”
