Hi, I’m Ivelisse, licensed massage & bodywork therapist and owner of Wise Body Massage & Bodywork. I’m a graduate from the Western North Carolina School of Massage, where I completed my massage therapy studies and also obtained a certificate in neuromuscular therapy (NMT). An interest in experiential anatomy and movement practices led me to pursue a yoga teaching certification from the Sivananda Yoga Center in the Bahamas in 2015.

The focus of my work is always informed by the needs of my client, first and foremost. At the core of what I do is a collaborative effort to invite balance back into the body and to empower my clients with knowledge and self care recommendations.

I incorporate an intuitive blend of neuromuscular therapy, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, yoga informed stretching, and cupping. In my practice I strive to create a space for clients to embody inward focus while maintaining a safe and nurturing environment.

I’ve gotten bodywork for over 3 decades and Ivelisse Rivera has helped me with injuries from an old auto accident that no one else has ever managed to affect - she is knowledgeable and gifted!

Ivelisse is amazing. She has a wonderful touch that always brings great results.

Ivelisse Rivera is a magician with unwinding sticky fascia, and opening joint space. I have seen dozens of massage therapist but Ivelisse is far superior to most in her field. I highly recommend her!

Rolfing was new to me, but the experience has been amazing for my body and movement and mobility.

Structural Body Integration is a must if you are experiencing loss of mobility. Ivelisse is amazing. I felt very comforted and supported during a very vulnerable time.

These treatments have been amazing! And Ivelisse is very skillful. She makes me feel like a friend. She has helped make me more aware of what my body needs to thrive and I look forward to treating myself again in a couple weeks.
