Today we’d like to introduce you to Toni L Smith.
Hi Toni, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
After being a welder for five years and not finding any fulfillment in it. My soul-searching journey started. I ask God a question. I know you created me for something better than this? I heard the words massage therapy. I’m excited about what I heard even though at the time, I had no clue to what massage therapy was.
Fast forward, May 1, 2002, I moved from West Point, Mississippi to Stone Mountain, GA to start my new journey at the Atlanta School of Massage. Completing the course allowed me to see how much I truly enjoyed learning and being passionate about helping people. I felt in my spirit this is what I am created to do!
I LOVE WHAT I DO & I DO WHAT I LOVE.
After graduating from The Atlanta School Of Massage in 2002. I decided to work in a chiropractic setting to learn all that I can about the human body from different situations.
Restoration Body Massage was born in October 2010. I stepped out on my faith and never looked back.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
This has been interesting. Not too bad for the most part. Everyone loves massages!! My challenges were discovering where and who are the people I wanted to work with? Or who would benefit the most from my work? A lot of questions with answers to come later. Through trial and error, I experienced, but I never gave up.
I understood that the trials came only to make me stronger and for me to learn the lesson(s) and keep persevering on my journey.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?

What matters the most to me is meeting people where they are on their journey.
