"I have been going to see Stephanie Carpenter for a weekly massage for the past year and she has changed my life. It is more appropriate to say that she has given me my life back! For over 6 years my neck and back were in terrible shape as the result of an accident. My neck, shoulders and back were in constant pain and I could not sit, work or function at normal capacity. Thanks to Stephanie’s care, I am now working, going to school full time and I am living the pain free life that I never thought I would have again! My doctor remarked that Stephanie is a gift from God and I could not agree more!"Heather C.

"… I recommend Eric Derrico. I have seen him the most, and he knows what he is doing. He incorporates a lot of body movement and stretching which is good for me because I sit at a computer more often than not. He always asks me if there is anything specific I want or need and he actually listens and follows through. I LOVE the fact that he talks to me when I want to talk and then shuts up when I do. (I like to talk during some parts of my massage, but I have had massage therapists who take my initial talkativeness to mean that I want to listen to them for a full hour!) One time Eric had to cancel my appointment because he had an injury. He emailed me afterward to apologize, which was unnecessary, but very appreciated. Eric is very professional, respectful, and interesting to talk to. Also, I am normally really anxious about taking my clothes off, but this place is so professional that I don't even give it a second thought. The only negative is that because this place is so good, it is hard to get a last minute appointment. Honestly, I don't know why anyone who lives in the Boston area would pay more and get a lower quality massage at a spa. I've done it, and it's not worth it (and I love spas!)."Jeff A.

"Eric's expertise in a variety of modalities enables him to be responsive to my needs every session– whether it be stress reduction, stretching with Thai massage to increase flexibility, or the occasional self-indulgent pampering. I've tried and been disappointed with so many other therapists in the area; Eric is a godsend"Annmarie C.

"I have been seeing Eric for a couple of years now. Not only is Eric an amazing masage thereapist who truly listens to what I have to say but with all of his support and awesome techniques I have made it through numerous marathons and even an Ironman. Without Eric I may not have made it through any of my athletic challenges injury free and still smiling! :) No matter what kind of week I am having I always look forward to my sessions with Eric. Session after session we work through any body issues I am experiencing and I leave feeling renewed and ready to tackle the rest of the week! He will always have a special place in my heart as he always knows how to make me feel better! Thanks Eric for all that you do!"Frankie B.

"David is my hero! He is extremely talented, patient, kind, knowledgeable, and wise beyond his years. I had been to see David a few times over the years, and he always amazed me by successfully treating my various colds, and aches and pains. It wasn't until last year though, that I came to discover even more of David's incredible talents. I woke up one day with very severe edema and went to see multiple doctors, went through many different tests, all of which came back negative. The doctors were stumped and could not tell me what was wrong, or how to treat it. I was scared, anxious, and very frustrated. Finally, I went to see David, and he was able to not only explain to me what was wrong, but also completely cure me through herbal supplements and just several acupuncture treatments! I am so thankful for David and do not know what I would do without him!"Michelle C.

"I have been seeing Stephanie for over three years now. She has helped me through 3 marathons. The one year I did not see Stephanie as often during my training, I ended up running with an injury and had my worst marathon experience to date. As a result, I am 100% convinced seeing Stephanie on a regular basis not only prevents training injuries, but also significantly improves my athletic performance.
Stephanie has an amazing ability to find the exact trigger points causing your pain and discomfort. She has magic hands that just make the pain go away!! Countless times I have walked in to my appointment with some sort of body issue and left feeling relaxed, loose and pain free. It's so great to go for a run after a session with Stephanie and not feel any of the pain or tightness that was plaguing me just the day before. She always seems to undo the damage that I've done!!
After experiencing the relief and renewal from someone who really knows what they are doing, I won't get a massage anywhere else. I've tried and I just feel like I'm throwing my money away. Thanks Stephanie…you're the BEST!!"Renee V.

"I recently discovered the talents of Eric Derrico, and am thrilled that I was able to find someone who really listens to all of your concerns and does superb work that helps relieve pain and stiffness. I have two small children and work a desk job, and have many issues with sore muscles. In only a few sessions, Eric has already changed my upper body flexibility, and helped me get rid of a lot of neck and shoulder tension. This is definitely a more focused type of massage that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a very customized approach to therapy or fitness. I cannot wait until my next appointment!"
