About Us

Throughout her career and extensive travels, owner Carolyn Wentz dreamed of owning a business in Colorado where she could positively impact others. In previous professional roles, Carolyn focused on relationships, innovation and growth. Since moving here in 2002 to spend more time skiing, camping and playing outside, she held firmly to that dream until the right opportunity presented itself.

With Littleton Massage & Sports Recovery, Carolyn loves working with a talented team of professionals and partners to make movement and wellness a priority in the community. In her free time, she is an avid yogi, skier, chicken mom and world traveler, and also enjoys hiking and paddle boarding. It’s no wonder she has a clinic to restore and maintain full mobility. Carolyn and her husband Shawn love to visit family when possible and have adventures with their ten nieces and two nephews.

Carolyn’s bucket list includes a trip to Antarctica to see her 7th continent and the Emperor Penguins.
