I just had the best deep tissue massage from Ariela! She was amazing. I came in with sciatic pain and in desperate need of pain relief. Ariela was knowledgeable and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire massage. After the massage, she gave me some tips on how to help relieve some of the tightness in my hips. I truly appreciated the time and energy she put into making me feel better. Aesthetically, The Now is IG worthy! It’s tranquil and smells heavenly. I loved the message so much I got the membership. Thank you Ariela 🙏🏽❤️
Robyn is amazing! This was my first prenatal massage, and I immediately decided to go for the membership. She’s incredibly gentle, thoughtful, and clearly very experienced. The whole experience at The NOW Massage was so relaxing. The place smelled amazing, and the vibe was just perfect for unwinding. I highly recommend Robyn and The NOW Massage!
Robyn has the touch of an angel! She was very thorough and precise, excellent pressure and managed to get every area we discussed perfectly! She made sure I was comfortable throughout the massage and was very knowledgeable! Thank you, ill be back next month!
When is The NOW coming to Washington DC? My family and I had the pleasure of getting massages at this location and let me tell you: the Front staff was excellent and the massage therapist were incredible!Treat yourself and embrace the need to take care of yourself fully by getting a massage service at this location.Thank you for taking care of me and my family; keep up the great work and hope to see a location in DC soon!
Jennifer’s Swedish massage was perfect. She even incorporated some specific work to get out some trigger points in my neck. You can tell by the thoroughness of her massagethat she has a lot of experience. I left feeling cared for and very relaxed.Thank You
My service from Robyn was amazing. Not exaggerating when I say this was the best massage Ive ever had. She made sure to personalize my experience to my needs. The pressure she applied to the areas I designated was spot on. I needed something between a deep tissue and a relaxing massage and got just that. I got much needed relief and a little nap in the same session. I will be booking her again.
I really really enjoyed my 1st massage in years. It’s been right at 10 years due to the therapist being so rough. Robyn got the toughest kinks from my shoulder/back with a lot of gentle effort. My visit in Chicago keep getting better. Definitely coming back this summer. That night I slept amazing even had some dreams that I remember every single detail of. Robyn is a true healer. That experience I feel allowed so much stress to exit my body and therefore I was able to dream and receive massage from God. Thank you Robyn. Thank you to everyone on the team. You all make that place great.
I had an great experience with Robyn, the massage therapist, and Efren at the front desk. Robyn made sure I was comfortable with the pressure throughout the session. Her technique is both soothing and effective, leaving me feeling relaxed. Efren was welcoming and efficient, making the check-in and check-out process smooth and pleasant.
Robyn was great! Very relaxing, she put me to sleep several time! She also does really good deep tissue work and I like that she uses essential oils and use a heated table. Highly recommend her for men and women!
Came here for my birthday and tried the 50min massage. I had Robyn who was really kind and amazing. She was super receptive to which areas of my back were bothering me and ended up going above and beyond (especially since it was only 50min). Would absolutely recommend Robyn if you’re looking to book here!
I’ve been getting massages at the NOW for several months and I can’t speak highly enough of the overall experience… but you HAVE to go to Margarita! (I’m sure the rest of the therapists are great too though!) My massage with Margarita is one of the highlights of my month. Her technique is amazing - soothing, melts away my knots, and makes me forget about all the stressors for those 80 minutes. She’s amazing! Go to the NOW and ask for Margarita!
Robyn was kind, helpful, and listened to my body. My shoulders dropped and my intense pain was gone after my massage with Robyn, whom I highly recommend! Also, the people at the front desk were welcoming. The atmosphere was definitely calming.
5 stars could never be enough to give Robyn! My massage was amazing. I didn’t even have to tell her about my lower back problems, it’s as if she felt around and went straight to working out the knots. I got off the table feeling like a new person. I definitely will be back thanks to her! Thank YOU! 🙏 ❤️
WOW!!! Robin is phenomenal!!! I highly recommend booking with her. I was visiting from out of town and had an awful kink in my neck with limited mobility and severe pain in my shoulders from traveling. 80 minute relaxer massage fixed me right up! No more shoulder pain, thank goodness I can take deep breaths again, and turn my neck! Thanks Robin, you’re the BEST!
I typically go to the West Loop location but Robyn has converted me. She made time to listen to my concerns/needs and executed them perfectly. I haven’t felt this relaxed and knot free in a while. Thanks again! See you soon!Update/Edit: I have tried a few other massage therapist at this location and they were all fantastic. Shout out to Cameron, Shaiyla and Toriana. I don’t think there is a bad massage therapist at this location.
The best way to describe my experience is Robyn, Robyn,Robyn. She is incredibly AWESOME!!! She makes you feel very comfortable, hit every focal point and is very professional!! And the atmosphere takes you away from all negativity. You feel like youre on the island somewhere . Ive already paid for a membership because I manifested the experience. This will definitely be my home for massages💜💜💜💜💜
The south loop location is a much better spot! Robyn was very attentive, listened and addressed my problem areas well. Would definitely suggest her if you’re looking to book here!
First time with Robyn & she is amazing! Very attentive to your needs & executes perfectly. Left feeling much better than I did coming in. Will be back again with Robyn for a longer session!
Robyn gave the ultimate massage. My favorite by far at The Now South Loop. She hit my requested target zones and then some. Pressure was just right. I only wish it could have kept going. Heavenly hands and great overall professionalism and service.
I have always had a wonderful experience at The Now Massage, but had to write a review after getting a massage with Robyn yesterday! I will admit that my massage preferences are a bit nuanced - I like deep tissue, but have a bit of an aversion to the way certain masseuses use a lot of elbows and other poky body parts to do deep tissue. Robyn used exactly the right pressure and techniques and was very open to making the experience as personalized as it could be. I left feeling sooooo very relaxed.I also want to give a huge shout out to the management, as well. Effrin at the front desk is so lovely and kind, and Ive also had great experiences working with Mike as well - its clear that they both care deeply about their customers.Lastly, its probably evident from the photos that this place is not your run of the mill massage space. Rather, the Tulum vibes will instantly make you feel like you have stepped into another world where you can leave any stress behind you. I LOVE the ocean sounds that they play during your massage which for me, is far more relaxing than the alternative at other places (silence or other soft music) as it instantly transports to me to my mental happy place on the beach.I cant recommend this place enough and as a longtime South Loop resident, Im so thankful to have them in the neighborhood!
Robyn is amazing! All I told her was that I had some tension in my neck and thats all I wanted her to focus on. And she truly listened to me. Not only did she work on my knots but she found tension I had in my back and worked that out too! She is seriously so good at what she does. I came out feeling so so good after 🥰
Robin was incredible! She definitely listened to what I wanted achieved for a massage and she did a remarkable job. I legit passed out the minute she begun. Her and the staff were welcoming and very nice! I will be recommending Robin and the NOW to others. If you can get the chance to relieve some stress and tension, definitely request Robin
I’ve had a massage at this location twice and both times it was a great experience. Since I had a good experience, I decided to purchase a surprise Father’s Day massage for my boyfriend. I put in the notes of my booking that this massage was for my boyfriend, however, when we got there we were met with hostility. His masseuse, Margarita, acted like she didn’t want to take him back. She said it right in front of us with an attitude, “I thought I was massaging her (me)”. Which made my boyfriend very uncomfortable and he couldn’t enjoy his massage. If you’re going to touch someone and massage them at least you can do is create a welcoming environment. I feel bad because what was supposed to be a surprise gift turned into an awkward situation where he felt uncomfortable the entire time.
I’m training for a weightlifting competition, and I needed a sports massage to help stretch out and massage some tight and sore muscles. I met with Robyn, and she did an amazing job. She listened to my needs and targeted exactly what I asked for. Highly recommend!
Robyn was amazing with my massage . She is very patient and soft spoken. She made sure I was okay during my whole massage. She made me feel very comfortable and her hands does wonders. I highly recommend ROBYN for yall massages.
I had a 50 minute prenatal glow today with Robyn and it was great! I explained to her my trouble areas beforehand, she understood the assignment; gave me just what I needed and was very professional. I already made my next appointment with her !
I had a massage with Jesse and it was one of the best massages I’ve ever had! I was so relaxed and zen after, it took me a minute to function lolHighly recommend him and The Now without even thinking twice!
The now is great, great atmosphere, friendly and wonderful therapists. Couldnt recommend Robyn any better she specializes in headache relief and was truly a joy to work with. Great understanding of pressure points and genuinely listens. Wonderful massage!
This was the worst massage experience I’ve ever had…and I am someone who gets regular massages. I had 25 minute appointment scheduled for 4pm last weekend and I arrived at 4:03pm. When I got there, my misuse was so rude and stressed me out! She was like you’re late and we don’t have much time, and you need to get undressed quickly. I was so stressed and didn’t even feel like I could go use the bathroom. I felt like I was going to a doctor’s appointment, not a massage. It was SO BAD!
I have been coming here for the last ~2 years and they are amazing. Beautiful and relaxing environment and the massage therapists are all great. Robyn is the best!!!
Robyn was SO amazing. Hands down the best massage I’ve ever had. 12/10 recommend her. The whole staff was so nice and the atmosphere was incredibly cozy and relaxing. Best spa experience I’ve ever had
Beautiful massage place and love that they play ambient wave sounds! Great massage by Robyn! So relaxing! Definitely going to be a regular here.
I had an massage at The Now Massage in the South Loop. I was really looking forward to this visit as I am in the healthcare field and its been some very long and hard hours. So I finally decided to treat myself. I booked an 80min massage with the deep tissue and hemp oil add on which came to a total of 185 which is more then I ever paid for an massage, but I figured hey why not. Needless to say I was beyond disappointed with the entire experience my masseuse was Herschel. First off he spent majority of my massage stretching me which is crazy because I didnt come to be stretched and the stretching was a joke. I told him the areas that were really hurting me and he spent minimal time on those places. He did not provided enough oil so the massage was ruff at times not smooth like a massage should be. I felt like it was a total waste of my time. I never received any deep tissue in the areas that I told him I needed the most. Ive had plenty of massages before and I never left feeling worst then when I came. Needless to say instead of feeling relaxed I left tighter and stiffer then when I came in. When my masseuse asked me how was the massage, I let him know that I was still really stiff and I actually feel the same if not worse then when I came in. His response was oh did you have an accident because I see some marks on your shoulder and that might have been the issue, I said no Im just top heavy but there was nothing on my neck or back which were two of the areas that I wanted him to focus on. Then he went on to suggest another add on for next time like I would ever let him put his hands on me again. Since the massage Ive been in so much pain and Ive been taking 600mg ibuprofen almost everyday and I have to use my massage gun just to get some type of relief and an ok nights sleep which is insane to me. I was sent an email to do a review I did but, no one has contacted me horrible customer service. If I couldve given no stars I would have. THIS WAS BY FAR THEE WORST EXPERIENCE AND MOST EXPENSIVE MASSAGE IVE EVER HAD AND I LEFT FEELING HORRIBLE. A PROFESSIONAL SHOULD BE ABLE TO STAND BY THERE WORK!!Update: After posting the above review yesterday the manager(Evelyn) got back to me immediately and I was very grateful for that. The manager(Evelyn) was beyond pleasant, understanding, remorseful and compassionate about the things that took place during my visit. She let me explain what happened and they thoroughly listened and took exceptionally great care of me on the phone. I was refunded for my entire visit which was amazing and I received an complimentary massage with one of their top masseuse. This was hands down some of thee best customer service that I have received in a long time and Im beyond grateful for that. I really appreciate her going above and beyond to turn my experience around, that meant a lot to me. I will be making my appointment for next weekend. Stay tuned Im excited about my appointment pray fully its everything Ive been waiting for. Again Evelyn thank you for your amazing care and customer service it did not go unnoticed!!!!
What an incredible experience! Today was my first time at NOW South Loop and Robyn provided the most relaxing massage I’ve ever had. I signed up for a monthly membership afterwards, so I can keep coming back. Definitely worth checking out!
Just in town for business for a couple days and with a different bed my back was feeling right. Went and saw Robyn, she was awesome, back feels good as new and felt super relaxed. Definitely recommend going to see her
I booked a last minute appointment for my sore back and had the pleasure of working with Margarita; she is an amazing massage therapist. She really paid attention to my tense points and even gave me follow up advice on how to relieve the pain at home. Will definitely be coming back!
Robyn C. is AMAZING!!! She was able to perfectly interpret what level of pressure I needed based on the explanation of my issues. She addressed all the problem areas in such a way that she broke down the knots but distributed the pressure so well that it didnt hurt--at all. Like, at all. It was AWESOME.
My experience was great. By far the best massage i’ve ever had. Robyn voice was calming. 10/10 for sure
Robyn was so kind and easy going for my first massage experience! The service was great so I left feeling amazing and relieved!
Matt & Kensli were super welcoming & warm. My therapist Mark did an awesome job relieving dysfunction & pain during the stretch. I wish I had more time, but wow for the time I did have, twas amazing. I could really tell Mark is passionate about what he does. Perfect amount of communication too. I will be back when I visit again!!💚
Jennifer was great!!! She listened intently to my specific needs, whilst adding additional massage techniques I didnt realize I needed until she did them. I definitely recommend her for a great experience. Thank you Jen🤗
Attrica did a wonderful job with my massage! She focused on key areas I mentioned beforehand, applied the right pressure, and overall did a great job 👏🏽 I will be back!
Margherita was excellent. Put me to sleep the whole time during the massage. Very professional and experienced. Have me excellent tips on self care in between massages.
I’ve had a monthly membership at The Now since 2021 and my 80 minute massage is one of my favorite self-care rituals. I’ve seen several of the massage therapists but Robyn is the best by far! She always takes excellent care of me. She communicates well to ensure I’m comfortable and any problem areas are addressed. I always leave feeling relaxed and ready for a nap! Definitely worth the investment if you’re looking to upgrade your self-care routine.
Robyn was amazing for my deep tissue massage! She worked through any problem areas. Definitely coming to see here again.
Shayla Is amazing!! She is so welcoming at every appointment and always checks in to make sure pressure is good! She is very intuitive and I highly recommend her service to anyone!
Robyn was amazing! She gave me a lovely prenatal massage. Highly recommend!!
The ambiance was great and the employees were kind and attentive. Though, I was not satisfied with the service that I received. I booked a 55 minute prenatal massage and the massage only lasted about 45 minutes tops. I was surprised when I checked my phone to see that we ended earlier than paid for, but I let it go. The massage was relaxing, but not as great as a massage I have gotten elsewhere. The pressure was not there, and my neck and arms were completely avoided during the massage, which I found odd since prenatal should include everything except the belly. For $135, I expected more. It’s not worth it, and there are many places for half the price with the same, if not better and longer service.
Ariela provided the best massage I have ever had. I highly recommend NOW and especially Ariela. I did the 80 minute with gua sha.
I can’t say enough great things about this place! I’ve had a membership for over a year now and it’s a vital part of my self care routine. During pregnancy they were able to offer a specialist on prenatal massages and it was fantastic!I’ll say that it takes a couple of massages to find the perfect massage therapist for you. So far Cameron, Jesse and Tay are my favorite for deep tissue, great amount of pressure, super professional and communicative. They really make you feel like new ✨ highly recommended
Scott is very passionate about his work and is great at doing just that. This massage experience was amazing! You won’t be disappointed :)
Robyn was amazing. I fell asleep during my massage.This was my second visit and Corey was also great the first time
I’ve been coming to the Now for a year or so and always a great experience! Today I had Robyn and it was one of the best massages of my life. I left feeling taller and super relaxed. 10/10 do recommend
Robyn was 10/10!! She was very attentive to my needs and requests. Left feeling really good and relaxed.
I just had my deep tissue massage 💆🏽♀️ w/ Robyn and she was absolutely amazing!! She was very informative, checked in with me regularly, and hit all the pressure points that were needed. Shes fabulous and I will definitely be back!
Please run to this and get yourself any massage you desire on the menu. I had the now 50 minute massage with deep tissue and scalp renewal add on’s. It was magnificent! Atmosphere was welcoming, clean, warm, reception was respectful and polite. I had my massage with Robyn and she was a 10/10!
I enjoyed my massage today with Robyn! She is my new favorite. She was attentive to my needs of the day, the pressure she applied during my deep tissue was SO perfect. I even had a moment where I realized I had fallen asleep a little (I Never fall asleep). I look forward to my next massage with her. Thanks Robyn!*Overall, I usually have a good experience with the staff here. They are all very sweet, hospitable and kind. After some communication issues with the manager earlier this year I thought I wouldnt be returning. I was there today because I had one remaining credit from my previous membership. Robyn changed my mind.
Robyn was absolutely wonderful. I feel so relaxed and rejuvenated. Will definitely be back.
When I tell you guys runnn to Robyn!! She was so personable and asked questions to make sure we were on the same page on how I wanted my massage to be. She also recommended the fresh eye mask which I lovedd and had amazing results!!! I always love coming here, the ambiance is amazing and the customer service is top tier!!
I had a deep tissue massage with Robyn and it was amazing! She really paid attention to the areas I mentioned were pain points and I felt amazing afterwards!
I found NOW South Loop last year when visiting my hometown and family. It will be my go to massage place from now on. The atmosphere is sensual, natural and inviting and the therapists are friendly, attentive and skilled. Their add ons and products are perfect compliments to their service menu. Last, but not least, their location is perfect for the South Loop area. Go see Natalie for The Stretch, you won’t be disappointed!
Very relaxing and professional massage. Cory did a thorough consultation and was thorough but careful of a current injury. I would highly recommend.
Great place! Love the zen vibe and Robin especially did a great job. She was very patient and asked me every step of the way what I preferred.
This is my third visit to Now Massage South Loop. I absolutely love Robyn - she listened to exactly what I was looking for from mymassage.
My experience at the Now Massage South Loop was an amazing experience. The ambiance of the boutique was very calming and put me at ease. My massage therapist was very tentative to my sore points and had no problem making adjustments during the session. The rest of the staff was polite and educated on all their enhancements.I recommend the Now South Loop to all my friends and colleagues.
Had a great massage with Robin. Was extremely helpful and listened to all concerns i had. Great place and definitely recommend Robin!
The atmosphere here is lovely and staff are all so nice. I got a deep tissue with Robyn and she was amazing!
Robyn was absolutely fantastic today. She listened to what I said was sore and uncomfortable and approached each area perfectly. The muscles between my back ribs get sticky and painful. She methodically and slowly attended to each muscle and I’ve never had a therapist take their time like that on my ribs. I haven’t fallen asleep during a massage in maybe 15 years. I was drooling and nodding in and out and I loved it. Highly recommend Robyn. I’ll be seeing her again for sure
I had a 50 minute massage with Robyn with the deep tissue enhancement. I was post Chicago Marathon and had a lot of soreness in my legs. Robyn was great about checking in with me on how things were feeling and adjusted accordingly. The massage was excellent and very restorative and I immediately noticed an improvement in both my soreness level and my mobility. I highly recommend Robyn!
Robyn is the best ever! Her massage was beyond perfection!!! I added the herbal heat therapy. I will be back soon. Love love love!
Just had the most wonderful massage with Robyn at the South Loop location. I have been struggling with TMJ, neck, and shoulder pain and she was a god send. Will absolutely be scheduling with her for my next massage!Update: I had booked (2 )50 minute massages for myself and my partner for our anniversary. The membership I have allows me to bring a guest with my credits. They tried to tell me at the time of the massage that I couldn’t use my credit for my guest and had to pay again out of pocket. After they argued back and forth with me and called a different location they realized they were wrong. However, they cut our massage times short to only 35 minutes for a 50 minute massage!!! I was so disappointed that I called the Now and left my phone number. I was told I’d receive a call back from the Now South Loop location and they never called me. Very disappointing.
I received my first massage at this location by Robyn. I booked a full body massage. The experience was great and relaxing. She asked me what was my focus areas & did just that. I feel great and definitely will be back.
With one session Robyn helped get rid of my upper back pain! Totally recommend her⭐️
Mercedes was amazing and made sure I was okay since this was my first time and left feeling completely relaxed. Did the 50 minutes massage but time just flew by that I wish I had done 80 minutes, now I know for next time.
I loved my whole visit here! Sam, my masseuse, was amazing. He checked in on me and made me feel so comfortable! I also really love the vibes. Definitely makes you forget you are in Chicago! Certainly planning on returning!
Robyn is so very talented and intuitive. I was in dyer need of a massage and was lucky enough to catch an opening with her. Everything said in the other comments are the TRUTH. I left feeling more relaxed than Ive been in a long time and I will be back asap.
My massage with Robyn was great! She was very attentive and considerate and I felt well taken care of during our time. I’m very satisfied with this visit!
The Now is great! They have super flexible schedules and a variety of massage types. A lot of the massage therapists are good at relaxation; I go to Robyn because she is good at trigger points.
I’ve never had a massage before and it was amazing experience. Robin did amazing job and someone who has a lot of stress from their job. She was very helpful and made my birthday very relaxing!
Robin has been my go to massage therapist for some time. I have arthritis and am always in search of someone who does deep tissue without deep pain. She’s very good at working with my sore limbs and joints. I recommend her to anyone who wants an excellent deep tissue massage.
This experience was amazing from the friendly staff greeting when you walk in the door to the relaxing massage. Robyn was my therapist. She was attentive and applied the perfect pressure. It was literally the best massage I have ever had! Definitely recommend!
My first time here and left SO relaxed. Robyn took the time to understand what I needed and had the perfect deep pressure. Everyone says it but 50 minutes is seriously not enough.
My experience at Now South Loop exceeded my expectations. Professional, clean, and overall calming. Staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. Sam is an amazing Massage Therapist. She applied perfect pressure, soothing energy, and very professional. Please schedule your next massage at Now and ask for Sam!
I have a membership at The Now and South Loop is by far the best location with the most skilled massage therapists. Ive had an amazing experience with Robin, and highly recommend booking with her!
Robyn is excellent!! Probably the best masseuse I’ve worked with. Book her!!
Great experience at the NOW, great costumer service, ambience, and staff ensured environment was quiet. Great availability and my masseuse Robyn checked in to make sure problems spots were addressed and gave me probably the best lower back massage I’ve had.
I got the best massage here. I felt like I am in mothers womb. So good. They have air purifier in each room, and my sinuses was relived for the first time.Update from my last review. If you are about to cancel your membership and give them 30 days notice they will still charge you with the last payment. This corporate practice is very unfortunate and makes the whole experience very unpleasant. Just dont sign up for their membership.
Wow - just had a 50-minute deep tissue with Robin and it was AMAZING. Perfect amount of pressure, explained key points without being a distraction and best massage I’ve had in years both in and outside of Chicago. I’ll definitely be back.
I’ve had amazing experiences with every massage at NOW, but really appreciate Christopher V. for helping me through some an injury that was causing me a lot of pain. His recommendations really helped! Membership is the biggest no-brained. Also shoutout to Daniel and Michael who’ve helped me in the past. Front desk staff are always wonderful and make the whole experience relaxing the moment you walk in the door.
Love this place. I’ve been getting monthly massages for a while and have had Tey, Cam and a woman whose name I forget all as therapists and they were all incredible! I’ve legit never heard noise from another room and like that they have wave sounds vs. terrible elevator music like most places. I did end up canceling my membership only because I can’t go every month now, but doing so was so easy. One phone call and a confirmation email and it was done.I will say that I had my last monthly massage today and it was the worst of the massages I’ve had there. The therapist didn’t ask for my pressure preference and was extremely light touched. I also felt like it was the same generic motion on my back over and over with way too much oil. I had to use the bed sheet to wipe down after and my back actually hurt more than it did going in.
Robyn did a great job! Very soothing atmosphere. Highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area.
This place was phenomenal! I get massages done often, especially while on vacation and we saw this place when searching. There was two people at the front desk that were very welcoming and quick to make sure we were acknowledged. My massage therapist was very nice and explained throughly what my session would consist of. I got the 50 minute healer massage and added on the scalp renewal, the scalp renewal is absolutely worth adding on. I will of course be back for another massage in the future.
What a great experience I had.From the moment of booking, the receptionist Carly and the waiting room they set the expectations very high.I then was introduced to Danny my therapist and I must say it was one of the best, if not the best massages I ever had. He focused on the areas I needed the most and kept the perfect pressure throughout the massage. I also loved how respectfully the massage session was. At the end he gave me some tips on how and what to stretch to improve areas where he felt I was most tense.I really appreciate the place the staff and not only will come back but would recommend.
Robyn was amazing!!! I had a deep tissue massage with her & it was one of the best I’ve had & I get monthly massages. My only regret is I didn’t do 80 mins.
I REALLYY wanted to like this place. The therapists are sweet. But everyone else who works their is so terrible. Whatever you do. Do NOT sign up for their membership they market it to you so sweet and easy until you try and cancel.Just read the previous reviews of the membership. Spare yourself the headache. Again the massage therapists are sweet.Everyone else shouldn’t be working in customer service. Just read the reviews and don’t be fooled by the old reviews when they used to be good before they started taking advantage of people. Don’t be fooled for the higher rating with old reviews.
I had Robyn for the first time and she was AMAZING! Only got a 25 minute and that was heavenly so I’m definitely coming back for a longer session. Everything I needed, her hands are magic!
Robyn at The Now did a really nice job with my massage. She put me to sleep!
Robyn was fantastic. Did a good job asking where to focus and gave some much needed attention to my shoulders and calves that were fairly tight. Felt a lot more limber and at ease afterwards.
Margarita provided excellent service and even gave tips afterward to help improve the areas where I held a lot of tension.
This was my first time at this massage boutique. I made my appointment online and check in and check out was easy & quick. The setup is cute. My massage therapist was nice and informative about the process. She made me feel comfortable and did a great job meeting my needs based on our conversation about what I wanted. I gave 4 stars because my massage started a little later than my appointment time but that was not adjusted for.
This is the review I posted 3 weeks ago. They said they would reach out to me and they never did:I was quite disappointed with my massage. While the place and ambiance was wonderful, my massage felt useless. I added on deep tissue and told the masseuse that I would like a 6 on a pressure scale of 1-6 due to pain I was having and it was the lightest massage I have ever received. It was never apparent that there was any deep tissue work done. It also started late and finished early.Edit: the email I used was a different one when booking.
I love all the Now Massage locations but this one is my favorite! The staff is so friendly, the vibe is amazing, and my massage was incredible. I added a gua sha enhancement, which Ive never seen at other massage places. Loved it! I signed up for their membership, which Id def recommend!
A friend recommended this place, and it did not disappoint. I got THE NOW signature massage. It was great for what I needed and my therapist was able to adjust pressure at different points when I requested. The entire experience made me feel like I was in a peaceful, tropical place and made me forget about being in Chicago for a bit!
Margarita gave me the best massage I have ever had! She has such a bright yet calming personality and I can tell she really listens to and cares for you as a client. She even made time at the end of the session to give me advice on stretching my low back. I did the healer with gua sha and deep tissue massage. I had never used gua sha during a massage before and wanted to try it- while i enjoyed it i think i would rather do without it next time! The space itself is really beautiful and healing. I would definitely come back myself soon and recommend this place and Margarita to anyone
I love this place! Robin is a really great therapist and made me feel so comfortable. Can’t wait to come back.
The Now Massage of this location is an absolute oasis of tranquility. The massages are incredibly soothing, relieving all your tension and stress. The therapists are skilled and attentive, ensuring a personalized and rejuvenating experience. The ambiance is peaceful and inviting, making it the perfect place to unwind and escape. Treat yourself to a blissful journey of relaxation at this location.
I was visiting Chicago today and wanted a massage. Scott and the salon delivered on my expectations. Clear communication and thoughtful service from start to finish. I’d visit again during another trip. And I highly recommend!
I had an amazing first experience with Robyn. Would definitely be recommending this place!
Just received a massage from Cam, and it was phenomenal. From beginning to end. His massage style is really versatile, with a massive range of technique. Highly recommend for ALL!
Just got done with my 80 minute massage and I have to say it might be the best one I’ve ever had. Jarvis was my masseuse and he was very professional and really good! He asked about any focus areas as well as any area I wanted to avoid. I felt alot of tension and knots I had and I can feel him identifying everyone of them and working them. The welcome staff was great too and very serviceable. The place is decorated very nicely and it was very very clean. I will most definitely be back.
Just had the most amazing massage from Robyn - the attention to details was amazing, I really appreciated the warm compresses, scented oils and just overall incredible massage!
Robyn is so so good! She really listens to what you want! :)
Don’t normally write reviews but Robyn was amazing. Highly recommend her, I signed up for the membership and will be back!Thank you Robyn!
First visit. Scott made me feel welcome and the massage I needed.Definitely booking a second session.
Got charged almost $500 for 4 massages in one day and they REFUSED to refund me. Their website NEVER gave me a confirmation for the booking and just continued to spin when I clicked the booking button, so I figured the booking never completed. The worst part was that after I finally got a booking confirmation for another one of their locations (Wicker Park), I went to the massage and started getting phone calls WHILE in the other location, asking if I was coming in for a massage. Once I got out of this location I saw that I had 4 charges for over $100 each on transactions. I called them, thinking that it makes logical sense to get a refund for the multiple false bookings, especially since I never got presented with a confirmation page and also got a massage at a different one of their location. The staff and manager, someone named Emma, was SO rude and didn’t even seem to care that they charged me almost half my rent for massages that didn’t even get verified. They kept saying the cancellation policy wouldn’t allow for refunds, but how can I cancel something I didn’t even get a confirmation for?I was trying to have a relaxing Saturday and this just ruined my whole week. I do not recommend supporting this business as they don’t care about their customers and especially don’t care about kindness.
I came here after a 10 mile race with my partner to treat ourselves. We got 80 minute massages and the speaker playing waves was extremely loud. It was so loud I could not relax at all. I asked my massage therapist if she could please turn it down and she said she couldn’t control it. I finally asked again and she said she’d go check for earplugs and left for 10 minutes of the massage. She came back with no earplugs and said they could turn it down a bit but it was still extremely loud. The massages including tip were $400. Not worth the money and I told the front desk and they comped $20 off for the bad service I had.
Robyn is amazing!! I had one of the best massages ever, and I’m counting down the days until I get to come back.
Loved the ambiance, white noise added an extra layer to the relaxation. I was running behind but the masseuse was very kind about it and still gave me a good amount of time. I also added on the scalp massage which was divine. I purchased one of their candles and hemp balm so I can take back the lovely smells I witnessed in the shop. When I come back to Chicago I will definitely be back!
I saw Robyn for a deep tissue massage. 10/10 massage for sure! Will definitely schedule with her again!
This place is incredible! Clean, professional, and the membership is worth every penny.Im sure they have many outstanding therapist, but Natalies the best! Whether its deep tissue or a relaxing soft touch, she does a great job.
Robyn was absolutely wonderful! I loved cupping. She had me so relaxed I nearly went to sleep. Thank you Robyn I will be back!
Robyn was amazing in my Now 50 massage session. I will definitely request her next time I come in.
I went in during the freeze and it’s exactly the relaxing atmosphere I needed. I left and said, “i think that’s the best massage i’ve ever had in my life”
First time at NOW and had an amazing experience. Booked with Courtney and had one of the best massages I’ve ever had. The perfect amount of pressure without me ever saying a word, spent extra time on my areas of tension (again, without me ever saying a word)- she just knows. It’s a great vibe and the pricing is really the cherry on top. Will definitely be back.
I went here for the first time yesterday because I was riding a 3 day tension migraine that was being triggered by a muscle spasm I was having in my neck, traps, shoulder area. I expressed this to Cam, the massage therapist I was lucky to get, and he said he would be sure to focus on.Not only did Cam put me into a euphoric numbing like relaxation, he worked out this spasm and broke my migraine. Cam gave me one of the best massages of my life. I will be returning OFTEN and even signed up for the membership.
I REALLY wanted to love this place especially since I live nearby. While my massage therapist was very nice, the massage itself was disappointing. I didnt like whatever oil was used as it felt too cold and didnt have that easy, gliding feel on the skin. The pressure was so light that it barely qualified as a true massage from my perspective, but maybe my expectations for the service I booked were not aligned? This was probably the worst massage Ive ever received 😕.
LOVE!! The place was so serene and the staff was so pleasant. Melissa my masseuse was perfect and listened to everything I said and the added on scalp treatment was amazing. Will definitely be back!
I was in town for a long, stressful business trip and decided to treat myself to a massage. I found The Now South Loop and I am so glad I did. Relaxation starts the minute you walk through the door. The atmosphere is calming and the decor is a mixture of natural finishes, crystals and candles. Check in was fast and friendly. My massage therapist, Melody, really listened to my needs and made sure to focus her time on those areas that needed it. I left relaxed a d ready to take of the week. My only complaint is that the massage had to end! If you find yourself in downtown Chicago, do yourself a favor and book a massage here. You wont regret it.
Loved how Scott started soft, then went to hit certain muscles hard, and then utilizing the rotating movements. Also, the neck trigger point was the perfect way to end that session. Very calming and what I needed! Thanks!
Have been here twice. Had a better experience on my recent visit! I loved how Melody discussed with me how to best use the time since I was doing a 25-min. She was effective in improving my mobility with the time constraints and very professional.
ROBYN IS AMAZING- book with her! I get a lot of massages and she made me feel so comfortable and did such an amazing job.
Fort time -great experience. Robyn was great, provided a relaxing experience and was skilled in her technique! Would definitely come back!
I highly recommend Robyn! She was the best at this location! She was very attentive and applied just the right amount of pressure. I was so relaxed and felt refreshed after.
The staff at this location are great, and the massages are fantastic! Ive had massages by a few different people, and I loved them all! Amazing atmosphere and really good pricing for our area! You also get a lot of perks when youre a member. 😊 It definitely feels, smells, and sounds like an oasis.
I really enjoyed the overall experience from checking in to the massage. The spa itself had a very nice and calming vibe and the staff was phenomenal. Once i got into the rooms to get my massage, it was a very warm and welcoming vibe I had. The massage was amazing, being able to get a lot of stress out of my muscles. I really enjoyed the spa and would recommend trying it out and inviting others to try it out!
This place is fine for a relaxing massage, though it is quite loud as others have mentioned you can hear everyone else who is getting a massage. The services offered are very limited, so if you wanted a treatment massage this place is not the place. I was a member and after having some mistakes with the front staff telling me I had a different membership than I did and also having to supplement with massages from other places to prevent migraines since the ones from here don’t do anything, I cancelled the membership. Also have had a lot of problems with the front desk: the area is uncomfortable and not at all relaxing, they push treatments even after I tell them I am uninterested because they do nothing for me, and continue to offer things I am allergic to despite me staying every time I am allergic to it. Also once the membership stopped including upgrades it was not worth it for a basic massage. If all you want is to relax this may be the place for you, if you are okay with hearing everyone else relax around you.
Very accommodating crew! I loved that I was able to get a 25 minute massage last second. I called as I was walking to the place, so the walk probably took minutes out of my scheduled massage. I didnt have enough money to pay, but the worker was very understanding. They agreed to have my card on file until further notice, but I was embarrassed nonetheless. I had no knowledge of my lack of funds, but I managed to call back and pay the day of just before leaving town. Also, the massues was professional and very oriented. Overall, I loved the place, the scent and the massage itself. Will definitely be coming back 🙂
My First Experience was great big thanks to Robyn and Mike made me feel so welcomed I’ll definitely be back very soon
Chandler was absolutely amazing! Hands down, she was the best massage therapist I have ever had and Ive had 100+ massages. She tailors the massage so perfectly to what you need and the pressure and hand movements are absolutely perfect! Every time Im in Chicago, I will be booking an appointment with her.
This is my 2nd time with Natalie as my masseuse. I appreciate her listening to my concerns, taking her time to get to know my body and pressure points, and delivering in results. I felt amazing both times. I think I’ve found a new home and permanent massage therapist for my monthly Jay Day. Thank you Natalie
I just had the best massage ever!! Danny was so intuitive and was able to relax and relieve my tight muscles. Ive been getting massages for 30 years and Dannys massage was a game changer . Do yourself a favor and book an 80 minute massage. You will be fighting me for the next open appointment ☺️
Beautiful spa and smells heavenly! Cameron is my FAV massage therapist. Highly recommend checking then out!
Danny hands down is a game changer. His massage technique is so good you can tell he really knows the body and not just rubbing oil on you. He is very knowledgeable and also showers me stretching techniques at the end of the session. Instantly signed up for a membership because of him. You know you have a great masseuse when so much tension is gone that you cry.
Robyn was an absolute amazing and wonderful Masseuse. She did a terrific job. I’ll be back to see her many times in the future.
I loved my experience. I came from a trip for a music festival so my body was so sore and I just needed a massage. I booked the 50 min + deep tissue and my service provider was Tawanna. She was very nice and extremely kind. The massage area is a quiet zone— they play some white noise and wave sounds that help drown out any whispers or noises from other clients, so that helped me relax a lot. Tawanna did a great job and suggested that I see her again to work on my problem areas more, and I ended up leaving as a new member.
Got my first prenatal massage with Robyn! It was so relaxing I took a nap! Ended up signing up for the membership because of how good it was!
Elly and Lauren are the best. They are very welcoming and help us re book without trouble. I love the massage and I will definitely be back !
Lovely little boutique feeling spa! The member rates are a great deal, one of the best (and best priced) massages Ive had in Chicago. The only tiny downside is that noise seems to travel a bit and the ventilation system is a bit noisy when it kicks up. But the massages are a solid 5 stars as are the staff. While this isnt your typical treat yourself, full spa its an excellent massage for the price and totally worth it if you want or need regular massage therapy.
Chris is amazing! He’s led 30, 50, and 80 minute sessions with me and takes note of areas to work on. Very personalized experience every time!
Great service- shoutout to Effrin whose hospitality made for an excellent experience! Will recommend to others.
Robin literally is one of the best masseuses I’ve ever had. I feel absolutely amazing! Before I went I did a bunch of google research and just chose this place and thank goodness. Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!
David has magic hands! Relieved all the tension in my neck and shoulders. Conveniently located by hotels, parks, museums and landmarks. Would definitely go again.
If you need to relax, this is a great spot. It is so peaceful, sleek, clean and the energy in the place is great! The only small issue for me is that with there only being curtains in between each room, sometimes you can hear whats happening in the other space. It can be distracting. My masseuse was so calm and took good direction. Most importantly she was quiet while giving my massage. I have been to this location 3 times and I will be back!
In town for business and booked very last minute. I was booked with Robyn and I could not recommend her more. A god send. I will definitely be going back.
Robin was amazing! Best massage I’ve had to date. Feel so revived and the atmosphere of the facility was perfect.
Not good experience at all i was try to cancel my membership ship with them they being really rude to me and attitude, they never told me that I have to send email and cancel, when I when to there massage they always try to make me a membership it sounds make so easy when you cancel, they told me is when want cancel they said just call give them 30days, but last 30days still charge it, I am agreeing because it makes easy for me sounds, to the horrible. Wanna try to cancel the lady are not allowed me to talk super super rude., never back
Can’t say enough amazing things about the NOW Massage at the West Loop location! The staff is kind and professional, the place is calming and beautiful, the massage therapists are fantastic! Me and my husband had one of the massages there over the holidays. Will be definitely returning for more :) Thank you the NOW Massage!
You must go and ask for Robyn!!! This girl has the hands of an angel!! Im sure they are all very good, but I got lucky and got to do my first-ever massage with Robyn. You wont be disappointed
Robyn was amazing it was a great experience.
Jesse my masseuse was amazing! And Erica at the front desk was so sweet! Definitely a 10/10 experience, would definitely go back.
My masseuse Jarvis was very patient and attentive. He offered valuable feedback and suggestions after our session. The environment is also very calm, relaxing, and inviting.
Therapist Shannon (Teh) is great. Very attentive to the specified areas. Adjusted pressure, released knots and relaxed the tension in all areas worked on during session. 50 mins isn’t nearly enough time with Teh he’s just that’s Awesome!
Made a a stop before work for a quick massage. They have a 25 minute option and man I wish I had more time. Staff is nice and knowledgeable. Really helped my pain. Also has some awesome produxts you can purchase for home too. Crystals, oils and more. I had therapist Kam. He did a great job
Had an absolutely amazing experience! The massage was customized to my preference and the herbal heat therapy was great for my back pain! The staff is professional and friendly while the facility is clean and relaxing. Highly recommend!
Love this place, my Significant other got us two packages just because. I had hands-on experience yesterday and she was great. The ambience was so inviting and calm. Can’t wait to my next appointment.
The best massage I have ever had. No kidding, the deep tissue massage was excellent/incredible; I will be happily returning.
If you want to feel like you’ve been transported from the Red Line to Tulum - this is your place! Beautiful ambiance and decor. I got a deep tissue body massage with a scalp massage with hemp oil. It was SO RELAXING and helped get my knots where I hold my stress out. Highly recommend the NOW!
Worst Service ever! Especially Brett answering the phone. They gave no notice that Greek Independence Day was going on the 26th of March. Roads are close no parking. Fist lady who answer the phone said it would be okay to cancel no charge.Brett is egotistical and rude. Then still charged the $130 for cancellation. When they did nothing to inform their customers Independent Greek Day was going on and there is nowhere to park.Never again will I use their services. Poor Attitude!Poor Business Relationship…. Two thumbs down for Now Massage.!
Robyn was great. She asked good questions and was really attentive to the areas I needed treatment.
I scheduled this a couple message way in advance and the day of the service they had a female message call in sick?!? For a place who 25 massage therapist they don’t have any female therapist for the time that I had a book which is ridiculous. I’m not sure how they staffed or how the booking works but this is something that I had booked way in advance for a surprise Christmas present which they ruin!!!!
**Updated to three stars from one as the manager reached out, granted a credit for the cancellation fee since the policy was not made clear** I was a member and have had a few negative experiences: adding on a treatment and the therapist forgets to use it until the massage is almost over; another time their schedule was backed up so my masssage started late and was cut short; and now Ive cancelled my membership due to their unexplained cancellation policy. Its an overpriced massage envy with more essential oils. You are in a tent and can hear any noise or movement in the tents adjacent to you, despite the ambient sound machines. Save your money and go elsewhere!
Jennifer was very detailed in her massage, excellent focusing on my areas of discomfort and the ambiance and care is top notch!
I love this place and the service that they provide. I’ve never had a bad experience visiting here.
Robyn is fantastic, she gives a great deep tissue massage every time! Highly recommend!
Robin was absolutely amazing! She was extremely thorough, and really payed attention to the areas that were bothering me.
What an incredible experience! I’ve tried all 3 massages and they are all unique and refreshing in their own way. Will be coming back over and over again for this luxurious experience! Truly enjoy every aspect of this place including the add-ons, high quality products, staff, and massage therapists. Highly recommend this spot for your next massage!
Robyn is AMAZING!!! I’m in my third trimester and this is the second time seeing her. She’s FANTASTIC!!!
This place is absolutely amazing! I booked a massage while visiting Chicago and so glad I went with this place. If you are able to request Orion, HIGHLY recommend! She has the hands of a goddess
10/10. Staff was super nice and the massages felt great. Felt like I was on a cloud. Will be going again.Had a nice and relaxing time. It was very much needed. Will be going again for sure. ☺️
Thanks to Margarita my massage therapist my upper and lower back doses not feel tight any more she understands the body and gives the right amount of pressure For your massage thank you
The staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable from the moment I walked in. The space and decor is so nice with California/beach vibes and very relaxing. There are a handful of add ons that the masseuse can incorporate into the session. I particularly loved the deep tissue add on and also tried the gua sha for the first time which I enjoyed. The entire experience was wonderful!
Been a few times, and have enjoyed every time. I appreciate they ask what Im looking for at thay visit - work out muscles or relax - and I love the atmosphere.
Pretty good local massage location in South Loop! The staff are friendly, and the prices are reasonable. I wish they had more offers and promotions to use.
I have visited this NOW location twice and LOVE the service. The prices are affordable. The ambiance is clean and warm. The people are professional and very good at their jobs. If you are looking for a massage with intuitive therapists, this place is a must!
Love this place place, great atmosphere. Everyone is friendly, and Ive gotten some really good massages from Chris. Ill be back!
I’ve been coming in about monthly when I’m here for work and it’s a great way to unwind. Reasonable price, great atmosphere and all the therapists are great so far!
Had a wonderful experience at this spa! Inviting atmosphere, great massage and very professional staff. I would definitely recommend for anyone whos looking to recharge, relax and feel rested after a long day.
If you haven’t already you definitely need to come get a massage here. The massage felt amazing I am so much more relaxed! It was luxurious with bohemian vibes and heated massage chairs and it’s so affordable! They even have special add ons and do a quick consultation with the therapist prior so you can customize the massage to your needs. 100% going back!
Margarita gave an amazing massage! The service here was excellent. Would definitely come again.
Great first massage! Staff was friendly and helpful. I would go check them out!
Robyn was incredible! I left feeling like a new person. I highly recommend the massages here!
Mary was amazing! Loved ambiance, though the rain sounds seemed a bit loud. Will definitely be back for another visit.
Gorgeous place. Ambiance is so relaxing for all five senses. And my massage therapist was fantastic. I can’t wait to go back!
I had an excellent visit at the NOW Massage- very professional and friendly staff that also delivers great service! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get a massage.
Cam is amazing. Hands down best massage I’ve ever had. 80 minutes flew by. Will definitely be going back!
Very pushy to get me to do 2 hour when I only requested 1 hourBrought a guy in to start on my feet when I said no feet, then proceeded to argue with me and talk in her language to the other guy.Very Noisy with a beeping noise constantly.Since she spent all the time on my back she left no time for the front.Very unprofessionalWhen
Excellent service. My therapist Cam has healing hands. I walked away feeling absolutely wonderful. I wanted to pack Cam in my suitcase & take him back home 😀😀😀
