van's European Healing Massage



Ivan uses a technique that incorporates long gliding strokes and muscle kneading to soothe sore muscles, stimulate the circulatory system, and promote relaxation of the body and mind.

The special technique used by Ivan combines a number of massage techniques to create a superior massage experience. There are five basic kinds of soft tissue manipulation techniques used: effleurage (long flowing or gliding strokes, usually toward the heart, tracing the outer contours of the body), petrissage (strokes that lift, roll, or knead the tissue), friction (circular strokes), vibration, and tapotement (percussion or tapping).

Using these techniques, Ivan has enhanced their application and impact to create a special massage experience. Central to Ivan's technique is the European recognition of the importance of the Mind/Body Integration.
Your satisfaction is guaranteed. Thanks for your attention. Looking forward to see you.

From the time I first contacted Ivan until I was laying on his table was a matter of hours. I emailed him and had a message back, appt scheduled and on my way to him.

From the moment I entered his home and his private massage setting I was totally at ease. He welcomed me with a firm handshake and I could tell I was going to enjoy having those hands work my sore and aching muscles.

I definitely left feel less stress than when I arrived....He definitely made me feel great

Fantastic, one of the best. These reviews are not just a bunch of nice words, Ivan really delivers a top notch massage. True deep tissue here. Very compassionate. Will definitely be booking more massages with Ivan!

I have been seeing Ivan for approximately three years now and he never fails to please me - his client. He knows exactly what I like as far as pressure is concerned. Our sessions are very comfortable no matter the location - occasionally I ask Ivan to make an outcall and he is always willing. If he finds himself running late, he calls ahead so you know he is on his way. I try to see him monthly now as his technique greatly improves my day to day life.

I would safely say that Ivan and I have developed a strong friendship and he is definitely true to his clients and h... (Read full review

I have never written a review before, but I feel I must write one about Ivan. This was probably the best massages I have ever had. Ivan came well prepared with a very comfortable table, non-greasy massage oil, soothing music and a candle. His work was thorough and detailed and the deep pressure I had requested. He is extremely professional but also quite down to earth. Do yourself a favor and don't miss the opportunity to get on this guy's table.

Although I could write a lengthy recommendation for Ivan, I think I can sum it up briefly by saying he is one of the best massage therapists I have ever met. His skills and talents match and surpass those I have experienced at some of the top spas I have visited like the Mandarin and Canyon Ranch. Not doubt he could be working anywhere he wanted. He was professional, caring, and accommodating. I recommend him without any reservation. My only regret is that I can only see him when I get to Chicago. If he was in my city I would be a regular client.

After a brief phone chat with Ivan, I headed to his location for what has to be considered as a true trip to PARADISE !!! Ivan guided me to his spotless massage space and pointed out the after treatment shower facility etc and left me to prepare for the massage. Once he started I was immediately sent to heaven. His touch = PERFECT. He first worked my neck, shoulders, back, glutes and legs. Then I turned over and he worked my arms, hands, feet, chest. The technique and pressure were perfect.

I don't normally write reveiws but based on my first experience with Ivan, I felt it was necessary. I have had a lot of massages by many different massage therapists and I have to say Ivan is within the top three. He was courteous, professional and just an all around nice guy. His studio was immaculate and very inviting. I think I have just found my permanent therapist. If you're looking to forget about the world and your worries Ivan is a must visit.

I have had many massages in award winning spas and Ivan matched every single one! Very much recommend him and will go back. Very professional, kind, conversational when I wanted him to be, clean and also "easy on the eye". He sat up the table with clean/nice linen/towels and worked special need area with perfect pressure. I will be more than happy to have work on me anytime again...

A massage by Ivan is a trip to heaven...pure bliss..He is personable, professional and very good at what he does.

He inquires often as to the clients comfort level during treatment. He will spend add'l time on any area you request.

The only thing I wished for once the massage was over was that it did not have to end. I will definitely make time with Ivan a regular appt on my calendar.
