THE BUSINESS
Pronounced DY-VIM, this is a small business, owned and operated by myself, Steven. I am fortunate to have a group of wellness professionals working along side me to bring more health and wellness options to the Wooster community. I currently have two locations in Wooster.
THE MASSAGE & STRETCH THERAPY OFFICE
First, a single room Massage Therapy office in the heart of downtown Wooster, directly above the Liberty Street Commons building. This office is designed to focus on each individual client and their needs while providing a warm, calming and tranquil space to relax and breathe easy. Being licensed through the Ohio State Medical Board and trained in a variety of techniques and modalities, all Massage Therapists will help customize the right treatment for you. Whether you are looking for a more therapeutic and medical approach or a chance to destress and unwind, we will provide a treatment session personalized to suit your needs.
THE MOVEMENT, YOGA & STRETCH STUDIO
Second is the new Movement, Yoga & Stretch studio located in Wooster's North end, inside THE WAREHOUSE 24-HOUR GYM. This space allows for group classes that include yoga, mindful stretch & movement and a whole lot more, including assisted stretch therapy, as we get rolling, so to speak. Watch for more to come at this location.

a little info
Massage:
I graduated from Cuyahoga Community College- Highland Hills in 2022 in my diploma in Massotherapy. I'm licensed by the State Medical Board of Ohio to perform relaxation massage, deep tissue therapeutic massage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, cupping, hot stone and MET. A Wayne county local, I enjoy going on hikes at Wooster Memorial Park, eating at Broken Rocks Cafe and swinging by Books n' Stock regularly. I look forward to meeting you and intend to cultivate an atmosphere of mental release, physical relaxation and holistic healing here, at Daivim.
Mindfulness Coaching:
I have cultivated a personal practice of mindfulness meditation and yoga since 2020. In the beginning of 2025 I felt led to create more spaces for the community to practice mindfulness meditation— a secular, science-backed practice of focusing one’s attention in a purposeful way in order to grow in emotional intelligence, become more resilient to stress and more equipped to handle chronic pain. I was certified to coach mindfulness in February of 2025 by an accredited Yoga Alliance program, taught by Rajaa Azouqa (YogaRenew). My classes on mindfulness explore the science behind the mind, its adaptive capacities and various guided meditative practices that aim to cultivate a sense of attentive presence, purpose, connection and curiosity in daily life. Mindfulness is a great tool for any beginner or experienced yoga practitioner who seeks to incorporate more meditation into their self-care routine.

a little info
HEY! I'm Courtnie! I've been teaching yoga and fitness classes since 2022. I have always loved group fitness and I truly believe movement is for everyone. PERIOD. Your age, your weight, background, etc. doesn't matter. Find the physical movements that work for your body AND you enjoy to do them. Do them as well as your body allows and as often as you can. I will ALWAYS have room for you at the table if you decide to join. I want to talk to you genuinely! I love answering your questions. I love getting to know you and building relationships. I love learning from each other. I'm loud, I'm fierce and I'm energetic! I have worked my entire life to find something that I'm passionate about and that can translate into work while still building connections and relationships with others. Aandddd... I've found it! So I'm not going to hide that or let it slip away.

a little info
Who am I, you ask? Rev. Brooke Winkler, MSSA, LISW-S, ACHT, RYT-500, ERYT-200
Professionally, I started my journey as a therapist but always sensed there was more of a connection between the psychological and spiritual. So I immersed myself in the study of the mind, body, and spirit, and how to bridge them together. I am a graduate of Case Western Reserve University, The University of Akron, and Fellowships of the Spirit School of Healing and Prophecy. I am working on my doctorate in Mind-Body Medicine with certifications in Integrative Wellness Coaching and Creativity Studies from Saybrook University. I retired from therapy in December 2019, after 20 years. I am also an Advanced Heart-Centered Clinical Hypnotherapist, Reiki Master, Psychic Medium, Registered Yoga Teacher, Certified Laugh-A-Yoga Coach, MARI Practitioner, Artist, and Belly Dancer. I believe that humor gets us through life and bonds us with others. And if you want the real deal…I am me. Creative, fun, kind, caring, stubborn, irreverent, and goofy. I live my life happily and attempt to put my best self forward on a daily basis. I put my heart into the things I do. It’s very common for me to be asked, “What are you up to NOW?!?” I laugh often, dance a lot, don’t get enough sleep, and enjoy talking people into adventures with me. I’m proud of my accomplishments and treasure my independence. Children fascinate me. On the Myers-Briggs, I’m an INFJ. I love flowers! I have the best little puppy in the world, Baxter. I keep telling him that, hoping he’ll learn to behave here soon. I’m the middle child–sigh. And I really think I missed my calling as a 1950s housewife…however, everyone laughs hysterically when I say that. That’s me in a nutshell!
