Experience

Certified massage therapist at ARSAMARE since 2019.
Why do you work in manual therapies? What led you to this work?
That path was born from a deep conviction: the body has the innate ability to heal and can restore its balance when the right specific techniques are applied. Being able to find relief from the physical tensions that build up day to day is the result of applying manual body restoration techniques: it not only relaxes the muscle, but also brings back peace of mind and overall well-being. That is what drives me every day to keep perfecting this art.
What is most important to you during a session?
What matters most is attention and absolute respect for the moment each person is going through. Every body tells a different story, so I adapt each session to the specific needs of the moment. I seek to create a safe, clean and calm space, where the client can find a refuge from outside stress, in a professional environment and applying biosafety protocols.
How do you want the person to feel at the end?
That is my greatest interest: that each person feels a deep physical and mental lightness. It makes me happy when they walk out the door at the end and notice that the pain or heaviness they arrived with has turned into relief, rest and renewed energy to carry on with their work, with their personal and relational daily routine, and feeling in harmony, even to be able to truly rest.
If you had to describe the way you work in one sentence, what would it be?
Manual techniques that restore the body, bringing back balance, because it is an art that, when applied with care and awareness, turns out to be a complement to overall health.
Testimonials
Had a great session with Ivan. After a long day of walking and hiking, my back was pretty tight, and he really helped relieve the pain. He’s very professional, attentive, and takes the time to ask questions before starting so he understands exactly what you need. The whole experience felt organized and official, not rushed at all. He also speaks good English, which made everything easy. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a quality therapeutic massage in Bogotá.
I am absolutely delighted with Ivan. He not only works with utmost professionalism but also brings a compassionate and empathetic approach that makes it easy for me to let go and fully relax. His holistic and individualized approach ensures that I feel completely taken care of. He always takes the necessary time to address my needs, and the treatments are very diverse. Thanks to his help, I was able to effectively release my tensions and blockages. I can highly recommend him!
Excellent experience. Iván is professional and speaks good English. He tailors treatments to personal need. Price seemed fair. He is a fun character and you will leave feeling good. Gracias!
This was hands down the best experience I've ever had! I just had a lymphatic drainage massage and I feel so much better both physically and mentally. I left feeling lighter, less bloated, and completely relaxed. I definitely recommend it, everyone needs to go! 10/10
