Jielian & Howard, Owners
A sample product tester at the Shengli Oil Field in the Shandong Province of China, Jielian also owned and op-erated a women's clothing store. Her interest in massage therapy was sparked by the influence of an uncle who practiced chiropractic medicine in the city of Dongying. After coming to the US, she took English Language courses at UNLV, then obtained her Reflexology Certification. She later completed the 550-hour course and received her massage license from the Nevada State Board of Massage Therapy. The Director of the NSBMT personally attended and spoke at her class graduation. Jielian also holds con-current massage licenses issued by the City of Las Vegas and the City of North Las Vegas.
