About
Training in Body Language with a psychoanalytic approach at the Body Language Brazilian School in São Paulo shaped how I read the body—not just the muscles, but what they're holding onto. I completed my studies there in 2023, and before that, I spent three years at the Frequencies of Brilliance institute learning an energy healing technique that most therapists don't carry. That combination is what makes my work different.
I've been practicing massage and energy work for eight years now, and what I've learned is that deep relaxation doesn't happen by accident. It happens when someone truly listens to your body and understands the connection between tension and what's going on in your life. I'm a certified Frequencies of Brilliance practitioner and Body Language Therapist, which means I can blend both massage and energy healing in a single session if that's what you need.
Right now I'm based in West Hollywood and taking mobile appointments throughout the Los Angeles area—I'll come to you in Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Venice, Marina del Rey, Glendale, Studio City, or North Hollywood. I work with a range of techniques: deep tissue, aromatherapy, reflexology, conscious breathwork, and tandem massage. I also offer body scrubs, either paired with a full-body massage or focused on the area you most need attention.
Every session is intuitive. I'm not following a script. If your shoulders are tight because of stress, I'll feel that and we'll work with it. If you want aromatherapy integrated into your massage, or if you'd prefer I focus purely on deep tissue work, that's entirely your call. I'm here 1:30 p.m. to midnight every day, and I work with cash, Venmo, Zelle, and PayPal. LGBTQ+ clients are absolutely welcome. Text or message to book—no calls, please.

Testimonials
After my 60-minute session with Gustavo, I was completely relaxed and slept soundly that night. What struck me most was how he identified exactly why my shoulder was tight—his explanation matched my current life situation perfectly, even though I'm usually skeptical about that kind of intuition. His therapeutic touch really does seem almost magical.
Hemasseur's Take
Clients report profound physical relaxation and restful sleep following sessions with Gustavo. His ability to connect physical tension with emotional or life circumstances sets him apart—he doesn't just work the muscles, he explains the 'why' behind the tightness in a way that resonates deeply and accurately with what clients are actually experiencing.
