Jivan is wonderful. I came in 16 years post traumatic ankle surgery with limited movement and maximum pain in my back, legs and shoulders. After moving here to Escondido, I wanted to become more active and focus on my health, which means being able to move, pain free. I am hiking and getting active again thanks to his techniques over the last few months. I highly recommend his services, especially if you are wanting to become more active again after an injury, no matter how long ago it was.

Jivan is absolutely AMAZING! He was able to assess my leg pain within minutes, manipulate the muscle that was causing my pain, and give me "homework" so I could work on it on my own later. Honestly, I came in to his office walking with a limp and left with an almost normal stride again. I'm so grateful to have found a skilled practitioner who truly understands the biomechanics of the human body.

Excellent and skilled in treating my knee 7 months after a meniscus surgery to improve flexibility and functionality. Comfortable massage table and room.

Loved it. Great massage. Really listens to what your body needs. Very personable. Highly recommend

Jivan is amazing! Very professional, helpful when it comes to weight training form and has a great personality. I had my husband do a session and we both keep going back as needed. I highly recommend Jivan

I’ve been going to Escondido Sports Massage for over a year now, and I truly can’t recommend Jivan enough. As someone training for Ironman races, my body takes a lot of abuse, and regular massage has become an essential part of staying healthy and performing at my best.

Jivan is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about helping his clients feel and move better. He doesn’t just work on sore muscles—he takes the time to identify the root cause of issues and has helped get my body functioning properly again after countless hours of swimming, cycling, and running. Thanks to his work, I’ve been able to recover better, train consistently, and avoid many of the aches and injuries that come with high-volume endurance training.

Every session is tailored to what my body needs that day, and I always leave feeling noticeably better. Whether you’re an endurance athlete, weekend warrior, or just dealing with everyday aches and pains, I can’t recommend Escondido Sports Massage enough. Jivan has been a huge part of keeping me healthy over the past year, and I’m incredibly grateful for everything he’s done.

Jivan is a miracle worker! We have been working with him for years and anytime I have an ache or a pain he is my first call. He’s lovely to communicate and work with and he’s super focused on making sure you are getting the most out of your session. Highly recommmend booking with him.

Can't emphasize enough how grateful I am to have discovered Escondido Sports Massage and Jivan. At 39, I train 6 days a week and have tested a variety of methods to help with recovery as I get older (deep tissue massage, acupuncture, float tank, at-home gadgets, etc). Nothing has been as effective as my sessions with Jivan and I look forward to every visit. Aside from the recovery work, Jivan is a joy to chat with and has a real intuition for when to reciprocate or when I'm more in a meditative mood with silence. I appreciate the feedback I get after each session in terms of what spots are showing improvements or new things to watch out for.

Cannot recommend enough and am sending my mother / mother-in-law there as well.

I've been regularly seeing Javin for about a year and he's by far the best sports massage therapist I've been to. Javin is very skilled and knowledgeable and after every appointment I notice significant improvements. I have hypermobility and he is able to give me modified stretches and excerices that actually work for me since standard ones often don't work. I would highly recommend!

Professionalism, Passion, and Skill.
Top notch body work. Would def recommend to anyone looking for a sports style massage.
