Well it all began November 2 1999.... I started my own business.... delusionsbodyart DBA.... that was just tattoos and body piercings.... and that lasted about 6-7 years.... and the whole thing hit a big bump in the road.... family changes.... business name changed to delusionsbodymodifications.... I went solo and tried to hire more artists for quite a few years.... that didn't work at all.... shop moved a few locations in the next couple years due to regulations and rules for public situations.... then I decided to go solo completely and do it for myself and Flower (Kelsea) and my family.... ended up finding a property that I bought on contract and had a vision of my own home-based private studio.... had to go thru city and state public health.... and city council.... and the governor gave me a variance.... due to already being permitted and grandfathered in thru public health and no negative marks against me.... I was allowed to start the only permitted private body piercing/tattoo studio In Iowa.... and probably the last, due to regulations and requirements.... I am the lucky owner of Endorphic - Gem in the Rough....

Had to let go of the tattooing side of the business due to physical health issues.... and focused on what really worked for the business.... and myself and Flower (Kelsea) collaborated together and started to make the effort on the new beginning to something special, our....BALANCE.... of life.... and looking forward to new beginnings with helping people find new and natural ways of coping with the everyday struggles life can throw at you....

We find our zen/peace/balance thru gems and jewelry and helping people find the right path to a better and enlightened life.... the balance we provide.... SERENITY
Troy & Flower
