~ Some massage therapists just pet you. It feels nice but no changes happen in the body. Many massage therapists are trained to be a scavenger for knots; once found, the knots are destroyed. More pressure equals more destruction, and often increased pain. This interaction leaves my muscles tensing up to protect from the aggressive invasion it experiences. I hold my breathe to survive the momentary battle between my muscles and the therapist, trying to breathe but often unsuccessfully. If she wins, the knot disintegrates, if I win, she either gets more aggressive or moves on. Luis is different. He holds a dialogue with my muscles and nervous system. He presses, and waits for feedback. He stops just before my muscles tense up and lock him out. He waits, gently and patiently, for my body to let him in, hold the tension, and safely escort it out of my body. He creates an ongoing communicative flow between his hands, my muscles, and my nervous system, constantly listening, and only moving forward once partnership is reinstated. He ends up accomplishing more because he's working with my body instead of against it. ~ Dalen R ~
~ Each time I've been massaged by him it's a little different as he is amazing at honing in on what my body needs and adjusting the massage to address it. Usually, he's better at knowing what I need than even I am! I always feel safe and cared for in his presence and he has a great demeanor. He is great at communicating to me about what he is up to and always makes sure I am comfortable. Highly recommend!!! ~ Nichole B ~
~ Best massage I have ever received! I felt immediate relief and definitely worked out some of my muscular demons. The ambiance is relaxing and Luis caters to what you feel comfy with. Will absolutely return ! ~ Ellie W ~
~ Luis listens to you and your expressed needs. If something does not feel right, just let Luis know and he will adjust his technique. Luis provided a very relaxing environment and massage. ~ Karen P ~
~ Have had a couple sessions of Psych K with Luis. In spite of a doubting mind, I was really impressed with the results we were able to achieve. I felt less fear about life, greater confidence, and it reduced a headache that I've had on and off for years! I highly recommend you give Luis and Psych K a try for any limiting beliefs that are holding you back in life. ~ Renee O ~
~ Truly the best massage I have ever received. Never realized I needed a full body massage and I felt absolutely amazing after leaving! I have many other issues going on with my body and he noticed almost instantly. I was very impressed for Luis to pick up on that. Don't think I'll ever go to another massage therapist, I feel lucky to have found someone so informed and passionate about what they're doing! ~ Morgan S ~
~ I have never had a better massage! I can't even begin to explain how Luis' touch is natural, almost surreal. I would recommend him in a heartbeat! You will not be disappointed ~ April K ~
~ Luis is truly a gifted massage therapist. He instinctively knows where the aches and pains are and adjusts accordingly. He has a very unique style, and healing hands which is awesome to experience. Highly recommended! ~ Frankie C ~
~The Muscle Whisperer (MW)_I will call here_ prevented me from progressing to a cane, walker or some other mobile assistance. I got in a car accident months ago and already have chronic back issues. My body is very stiff, muscles inflamed, and displaced ribs. My shoulder blade maintained a shooting pain, hips on fire, etc...until my first appointment with MW. I felt like a new person after 2 treatments with MW. You will appreciate the extreme care, patience and flexibility offered there. Time was no issue. I was educated about the healing and trouble-shooting techniques; and the doctor completed the treatment actions critical for me to feel GREAT. I am walking straight for the 1rst time in months, possibly years! Thanks MW! ~ Deanna B ~
~ My Husband and I travel alot and being in Denver I had 3 massages while there, two of those at Spas. I never get what I pay for, never! Then I called Luis. He came to to my hotel room and I have to say he is the best male Therapist I have encountered in my travels. As far as price, WOW! Try to find a massage this good for this price. He was very professional and made me feel very comfortable. I am also a licensed massage Therapist. I own two practices and am also an instructor where I teach massage Therapy. I know what a good Massage feels like and Luis is the real deal. I asked him if there was a way that I could give him a review so he gave me this website. If and when I come back to Colorado I will be calling, Thanks Luis:) ~ J A ~
~ Talk about the hidden gem you wish you found years ago! Luis' expertise as a 2nd generation massage therapist takes his work to a level beyond most. When someone begins learning how to help heal the body and free blocked energy as a child, you can imagine when they're all grown up what impact that has on their intuitive abilities. This is Luis. I did the 8- session pack to unlock the body, which you schedule 2-3 days max apart from each other. It's a commitment, and the BEST investment I've ever made for myself. The freedom I feel in my body is something I always knew I could feel, but hadn't found the right help until now. (And I've worked with massage therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists...the list goes on.) I did have two chiropractor sessions during this 8-session stint with Luis which I can only imagine was an ideal supplement. I recommend him to everyone I can! ~ Liana C ~
~ If anyone needs a massage near Denver, PLEASE let this wizard work on your back(or entire body) he does absolutely incredible things and you will not regret one second of your decision. I stayed for a 2 hour session and was absolutely life changing. He helped me through emotional blockages talking, while massaging the tension out at the same time. Absolutely breathtaking experience. I recommend getting the 2 hour session as it allows him more time to follow grasp the clients needs at hand, and work them out at the appropriate pace. Ambience is out of this world, felt like I was in my own home( not to mention the breath taking view of Denver and the mountains out of the window) Using essential oils and incense to stimulate the mood, all around it was a peak life experience for myself. Will be going back next week for another 2 hour session :) Please take any of your worries and needs to this man and he will leave you feeling like a new person, released and free of physical and emotional trauma ~ Bryan M ~
~ What a massage! As a massage therapist myself I certainly have had a number of massages and Luis' skilled touch ranks at the top of my list. His pressure is full & deep, thoughtful and caring. He truly understands the structure & function of the body and how to bring back balance. On top of his skilled & experienced bodywork he is highly personable and a pleasure to converse with. I will be a long time client & highly recommend his services! ~ Thaise L ~
~ highly recommend Muscle Whisperer Massage! Luis was so friendly that he immediately put me at ease. I went in hurting to move everything from my ears through my hips and he worked pure magic. I can move my shoulders in ways I haven't been able to in ages. Thanks Luis! ~ Linda F ~
~ My body was in bad shape- had no idea why everything hurt, I just knew that it did. I went in to see Luis and after talking and looking at me for 5 minutes he got to work. He worked on my problem areas in ways that I had never had before- head to toe. My experience was extremely peaceful and beneficial. After a couple hours I got up off of the table and felt 2 inches taller and incredibly loose. No hip, or back pain. If you are looking for someone to work some issues out of your body, look no further. And if this is your first time, I highly recommend the 2 hour session, you'll be back. ~ Jonathan M ~
~ This man knows exactly what he is doing, he is in tune with all parts of the body and knows how to diagnose and treat the problem. Won't ever go anywhere else!
~ I appreciate that Luis works with me to find the right techniques and pressure to meet my needs while still making the massage a serene and relaxing experience. The benefits of his massages extend into my day-to-day wellness because Luis also helps me to understand what's going on with my muscles and joints and to identify habits potentially causing aches and knots. Working all day at a computer can take a lot of wear and tear on a body; Luis has been great forging through knots in my scapula and forearms. His technique is most definitely unique; combined Swedish with deep tissue and even some Lomilomi. Super duper! ~ JG ~
~ I would say this is the best message I have ever gotten! Unlike others who follow a set routine he listen to what was bothering me and worked on those areas until the muscle relaxed. I see the passion and time Luis puts into his profession. ~ Nick C ~
~ I just had my first massage with Luis and I feel amazing. I went in for some lower back pain today and I left feeling wonderful. He knows his stuff and he was delightful to work with. I highly recommend his services. ~ Vicky H ~
~ Luis was very good. As firm as I needed. Very friendly and easy to meet and be around. He listened to what I wanted and addressed my areas of concern and not where I didn't need work. ~ Greg S ~
~ Excellent table side manner. Uses a variety of techniques to relax the muscles and the mind. ~ Kenneth W ~
~ Great session with Luis. Excellent pressure and really knows how to work out the kinks. Easy going attitude. Highly recommend the 2 hour session. ~ Chris E ~
~ This was my first visit here as I was recommended by another massage therapist. He was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what trigger points I had that needed work. The room was comfortable and unique. His holistic knowledge was helpful as well. ~ Kurt S ~
~ As a nurse I have had a lot of massages to help get all the knots and stress out of my back. After my massage with Luis I walked out feeling like a wet noodle. The massage was one of the best that I've ever had. It took the stress out of my entire body! The price was better than reasonable. can't wait to get back up to Denver to get another one. ~ Shelly W ~
~ Luis is a very skilled and intuitive massage therapist. He is helping my aging body deal with a very unhappy butt muscle. We are making great progress Running is a much better experience now. He gives a great deep tissue massage and is very responsive to how I am feeling. I will be definitely be a longtime client. ~ Sue V ~
~ Truly a wonderful experience and I felt so much relief after! I Highly recommend getting some body work done here! ~ Steve R ~
~ Awesome massage. Felt amazing ~ Denise R ~
~ This past weekend I had such a wonderful experience. Not only was he able to address my trouble spots he provided the such a thorough massage that left me feeling relaxed and like mush! He provided a comfortable safe space for me to process and release some holding patterns that have been stubborn. I highly recommend and will be coming back in the future! Thank you for such wonderful bodywork! ~ Briana T ~
~ Luis was able to work magic on a lower back problem that has been troubling me for a week now. It was totally relaxing but at the same time he gave my muscles a real workout. It was different than any massage I've ever had. In a good way. I will definitely be going back soon. Thanks Luis. ~ Vicky H ~
~ I gave Luis the nickname the "muscle whisperer". He seemed to know exactly what my body needed to be back in shape! Add to that a fun experience with plenty of laughs, Id definitely recommend! ~ Xander P ~
