Hear From Our Clients:

  • “Carrie has been a huge blessing to my daughter! Thanks to her magical hands and patience, she has discovered what was causing my daughter’s constant arm pain. I have taken my daughter to 8 doctors, she had one surgery and she was still rating her pain at an 8. With Carrie, I finally felt heard and not dismissed! So, after two long years, we are finally on the right path and I cannot thank Carrie enough!”

    Anne R.

  • “Amazing! Took the time to explain everything and was very thorough with the body scan. Improvements were already made after the initial visit. I am sure she is so busy, being the only person in Ohio to do this kind of work, but she didn't treat us like she was in a hurry. We didn't feel rushed at all. I can't say enough good about Carrie and the work she does.”

    Carlos B.

  • “I was quite impressed with not only the knowledge but also the professionalism of therapy with Carrie. The health benefits were immediate! My quality of life with vastly increased mobility is miraculous. I cannot say enough about the high-quality and caring therapy I received. Absolutely amazing!”

    Gene R.

  • “Carrie is extremely passionate and knowledgeable about the health and well-being of her patients. Highly recommend!"

    Kate W.

  • "5 stars isn't enough! I cannot say enough good about Carrie! I get a massage usually monthly and I can definitely tell when it's time to go. They keep my shoulders in working order and the occasional relaxation massage is always wonderful too! I always walk out feeling better than when I walked in!"

    Sarah D.

  • "I've been going to DTMWC for several years now. Although we have many capable therapists in my own town, I drive over an hour to Defiance because the services I receive there are well worth the time and the expense of my commute. Carrie is an amazing therapist - extremely knowledgeable and always expanding the scope of her practice by offering a wider range of therapeutic approaches. They take great care of me at DTMWC!!"

    Susan K.

  • "My husband and I are so thankful for Defiance Therapeutic Massage & Wellness Center! We have come here for many years and have gotten relief from pain with back, neck, shoulders, and foot issues! We know Carrie can fix it! We truthfully thank the Lord for the help we have gotten here!"

    Carol S.

  • "I've been going here for a year or two now on a regular basis. I've been to a lot of different massage therapists, chiropractors, physical therapist, just about anything to manage my pain. I can tell you, there is nobody better. I've never once got a "massage". Every time I go is a treatment. They use different treatments for different pains. I've learned more stretches and exercises here than from other physcial therapists. If you are looking for relief, this is the place to go."

    Matt C.

  • "Carrie is very professional. I highly recommend!"

    Dennis O.

  • "We are so fortunate to have this awesome place in our area!! I have been seeing Carrie since before she opened this fantastic business, I trust her and any of the other therapist completely. Carrie and her staff are very friendly and very helpful. I go on a monthly basis for therapeutic massage and have never had a bad experience in all of the years I have gone. I recommend Defiance Therapeutic Massage & Wellness Center to everyone I speak to whenever they mention a pain or discomfort they may have."

    Diana S.

  • "I can not say enough good things about this place. The entire staff is friendly, courteous and professional. Carrie & everyone that works there do a phenomenal job!!! The atmosphere there is quiet, relaxing & serene. Every time I leave there, I feel like a new person. I first went there after having 4 shoulder surgeries and Carrie was the only one that got my shoulders moving. Thank you "Carrie Magic Hands"!"

Carrie is amazing at what she does, and always makes me feel listened to and comfortable! Atmosphere is very relaxing!"

    Tracy O.

  • "I can't say enough about this place. All the staff is very helpful, and I haven't had a therapist that doesn't do a great job. I have Fibromyalgia and they have kept me moving through life with less pain. They have also introduced me to Young Living essential oils, which help me at home through bad days in between my neuromuscular massages. They also helped my daughter recover faster when she had a pulled ham string. So, if you have any issue going on - give them a try! You won't be disappointed!"
