The Instituto Estetico Manila Phoenix Volley Masters (shortened as IEM Phoenix Volley Masters) were a men's volleyball team in the Philippines owned by Instituto Estetico Manila, a dental and dermatological clinic.
The team was established in 2011 and initially competed in tournaments overseas before taking their talents domestically in 2014 when they joined the Philippine Super Liga (PSL), though they only took part in one conference: the 2014 All-Filipino Conference.
Later that year, the team moved to the Shakey's V-League (SVL) following the establishment of its men's division, and won a championship in the 2014 Reinforced Open Conference. Since then, IEM stayed within the Sports Vision umbrella, competing in Spikers' Turf and the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) men's division until 2019.
History Cosmetic surgeon Reyvic Cerilles established a women's volleyball team in 2001 which took part in the two-woman tournament Club 650. Cerilles named it after Instituto Estetico Manila, his own clinic. The team became inactive in 2005. In 2011, the IEM volleyball team was revived as a men's side which went on to participate in club tournaments abroad such as in Thailand and Malaysia. In 2014, the team was invited to join the Philippine Super Liga. IEM also joined the Spikers' Turf.
