Touch For Life Wellness

Derek never fails to provide consistently amazing massage therapy every visit. He is warm, professional, and compassionate--giving you his undivided attention during your session. The massage space is dreamy and cozy, and with Derek's touch transporting you to another world, it's hard to leave when your session is up! I've bounced around from massage therapist to therapist over the years, trying to find 'the one', and I am fortunate to have stumbled upon Derek's practice and will continue coming back as long as we stay in the AVL area!

Very good experience! I was a little nervous because I had never had a massage before. Derek was very sweet and understanding. He is truly dedicated to his art and wants to help others become their best selves. If you are in need of a massage or a chiropractor I would highly recommend Acton Massage & Wellness. Great service, kind people and a relaxing atmosphere.

Every massage I have had with Derek has been an incredible healing experience. His intuition guides his practice and I leave immediately feeling better. His professionalism gives me comfort to completely relax and receive the work. I have since become a regular monthly client and consider it part of my proactive health treatment.

I look forward to my massage with Derek every month! He is warm and kind, intuitive, and extremely talented. I have been getting professional massages in Asheville on a regular basis for the past fifteen years, and I have to say, Derek is the absolute best!

Had a wonderful experience with Derek right from the start. Incredibly Warm and friendly of a man. I went to him with a lot of pain in my shoulders and neck, he was very knowledgeable about the body and how to use his hands in making that pain go away. My upper body feels so much more open and loose. It’s an amazing skill he has. Great touch. Highly recommend for everyone!

Derek is a really great highly sensitive massage therapist. Actually beyond just massage. He has a way of moving energy and balancing the tensions and imbalances that build up in various places to bring more harmony and balance to the whole body and being. HIGHLY recommend!

I received a Groupon for Acton Massage as a gift. It was one of the best, if not the best massage I've ever had! Derek was great at listening to what I wanted/needed and focusing on those areas and afterwards giving advice to help in between massages.

Derek is an amazing massage therapist! I have fibromyalgia and, he gets those trigger points every time! See you again next month! So relaxing and really gets my positive Energy flowing!

Derek is a first class massage therapist! Not only did I feel great right after his work, I felt improvement in posture and function days later.

Derek Mazerolle does excellent work. Great technique and also intuitive. As a professional doing hands on manual medicine for over 30 years I can say Derek's work is very high level professional grade. Grateful for it. Mark Hoch, MD

I have been seeing Derek for massage therapy for several years now. His personal care balanced with professionalism is unmatched! I recommend him for prenatal massage, too!

Derek is a gem. This is the best massage I've ever had, and I've been getting regular massage for 20 years. AMAZING.

I felt very safe and cared for. Derek was extremely professional and thoughtful. Massage was relaxing and relieved areas of tension. I will definitely be back.

Derek is an amazing massage therapist. He understands how to manipulate the muscles in a way that provides lasting relief! Many, many thanks!

Derek Mazerolle; best massage in Asheville. Fixed my shoulder/neck pain in one session and did some much needed energy work. I walked out a completely different person than when I walked in.

Excellent massage! Derek is professional, friendly and very experienced. Best massage therapist in Asheville!

Derrick was great! I felt much more relaxed after my session. Will definitely book again!

Really great. I’ve been to many different massage therapists since moving to Asheville 15 yrs ago. All good enough. But this was great. Already booked my next appt.

Best massage I’ve ever had. Actually had students ask me why I was so “extra happy” the next day. Highly recommend!

One of the best massage I've ever received. Definitely recommend!! Can't wait to get another one!!! 💘
