Jacky Massage Therapist

Tourism Service in Brasilito, Guanacaste, Costa Rica.

Jacky Gutiérrez is a massage therapist based in Guanacaste who comes to you in Brasilito, Flamingo, and Potrero. Sessions happen in your rental, hotel room, or house, so you do not need to leave the coast for a spa appointment. The work is calm and professional, with attention on how your body feels—whether the goal is to relax, recover, or take a quiet hour for yourself.

That in-home format fits this shoreline well. Brasilito sits in Cabo Velas, in Santa Cruz canton, with Playa Brasilito at the village and Playa Conchal a short walk along the sand. Flamingo and Potrero continue the same chain of bays to the north, with houses, condos, and small hotels set close to the water. If you are staying just outside those three towns, you can still inquire.

Services you can request

Four session types are listed, and they match how people actually use bodywork on this coast.

Relaxing massage is a gentle, soothing treatment meant to calm mind and body. It suits the end of a long day in the sun, a dusty drive on the coastal road, or a week that has run too full.

Deep tissue massage uses focused pressure on tight muscles and knots. It is aimed at chronic tension and recovery—the tightness that builds from swimming, long walks on compact sand, or hours in a plane or car.

Therapeutic massage is more targeted. The hour concentrates on specific pain or discomfort and is shaped around what your body needs that day rather than a fixed routine.

Massage for travelers is framed for people who arrive stiff from long flights and full days of activity. The point is to reset so the rest of the trip is easier to enjoy.

When you write to book, name which of these you want and which areas feel sore. A relaxing hour and a deep-tissue hour are different; saying so up front keeps the session useful.

Brasilito, Flamingo, and Potrero

Jacky works in Brasilito, Flamingo, and Potrero. Brasilito is the village closest to Playa Brasilito and the walk toward Conchal, with a compact center, beachfront sodas, and a mix of small hotels, cabinas, and houses. Flamingo is the next well-known bay north, with a wider beach and more resorts and condos. Potrero continues that shoreline, quieter, with houses and small lodgings set back from the water.

Because the service is mobile, your address is the treatment room. A spare bedroom, a hotel room with space beside the bed, or a covered terrace can work if the surface is reasonably flat and there is room to move. Stays toward Conchal or along the Flamingo road are close enough to ask about. Share a pin or simple directions, especially if your rental sits on an unpaved spur.

Booking and timing

Reach Jacky on WhatsApp at +506 6266-1903 to check availability or set a time. There is no posted weekly schedule, so the useful step is to send your dates, town, and preferred window.

Guanacaste days run hot, and beach time tends to sit in the morning before the strongest sun. A late-morning or mid-afternoon slot at the lodging uses the heat of the day well: you are already inside, and you can rest afterward. Residents often look for an evening hour after work. Leave a little buffer. The therapist is traveling among Brasilito, Flamingo, and Potrero, and coastal traffic plus dirt access roads can stretch a short hop.

In the first message, say where you are staying, which service you want, how many people, and whether a quiet room is available. Mention injuries, a recent flight, sunburn, or pregnancy. Duration, price, and cancellation details are settled in that same thread before the visit.

Fitting a session into a day on this coast

A Brasilito day already has a natural pause. Mornings are for Playa Brasilito or the walk toward Conchal, when the sand is compact and the water is usually calmer than at busier breaks farther south. Midday heat pushes people back to shade and indoor spaces. That is a strong window for an at-home massage: you are not losing beach hours, and you can drink water and stay put afterward.

Late afternoon is another good fit, especially after time on a boat, a dusty drive, or a long walk. Flamingo and Potrero guests often place the session before sunset on the beach or a dinner in town. Keep the hour after the massage unhurried. Deep tissue and therapeutic work can leave you thirsty and a little slow; a quiet patio is more useful than a tight restaurant time.

If you are moving between towns, book the massage on a stay-put day. The value of an in-home visit is skipping extra driving. A day that already includes a long inland tour is a better match if the session is recovery that evening, not a stop squeezed between transfers.

Nearby meals are easy once you are done. Brasilito’s beachfront sodas and small restaurants sit close to the village center, so you can walk to a simple dinner without getting back in the car. Flamingo and Potrero have their own strips of restaurants along the main road; plan those as a slow evening, not a rush.

How to choose an in-home therapist here

This stretch of coast has resort spas, hotel treatments, and independent therapists who travel. An in-home visit makes sense when you are in a rental, traveling with children who need a parent on site, dealing with jet lag, or simply do not want to leave a quiet house. A resort spa can be simpler if you are already on property and want a locker room and a set desk.

When you compare options, look for a clear service list, a defined coverage area, and a direct way to talk about pressure and problem areas. Jacky’s list—relaxing, deep tissue, therapeutic, and traveler-focused—covers the usual reasons people book here. Ask how the session will be set up in your space, what you should clear from the room, and whether lotion or oil is brought along. If you need work on a specific shoulder, hip, or lower back, say so; therapeutic work is meant for that kind of request.

For travelers, the first couple of days after a long-haul flight are when necks, calves, and lower backs complain most. A traveler-focused or relaxing session then can make the next beach days easier. If you have been in the water a lot, mention shoulders and hips. If you have been in a car on the Flamingo road, mention the low back.

Residents using a mobile therapist should treat it like any other house call: gate code, dogs, parking, and a room that is not blasting cold air onto a bare back. Guanacaste interiors heat up quickly; a fan and closed curtains usually help more than an icy air conditioner.

What to prepare at your lodging

You do not need a studio, but you do need a reasonably private, level space. Clear extra pillows off a bed, or make room on a living-room floor. Have two towels ready unless you are told otherwise. Drink water before and after, and skip a heavy meal in the hour beforehand.

Send the lodging name and a WhatsApp pin. Brasilito, Flamingo, and Potrero are full of similar-looking gates and unnamed spurs; a pin saves time. If a guard sits at the entrance, put the therapist’s name on the list.

Wear something easy to change out of. Afterward, keep plans light. A slow walk on Playa Brasilito, a soda meal in the village, or an evening at the house all sit well after bodywork. Put zip lines, long horseback rides, and early surf on another day, or do those first and the massage last.

The same prep applies if you are in Flamingo or Potrero. The beaches there are broader and the lodging mix leans toward condos and resorts, but the session still happens in your room or villa, not at a storefront.

Message on WhatsApp with where you are, which session you want, and when you are free, then leave enough of the day open to feel the work.
