It has been almost 2 years since I've me Lara Lasky. On summer 2020 as soon as i decided to have a…read morehome birth I was in a search for midwife and doula. As always I listened to my intuition. So first doula I found didn't click, but second one was perfect match for me. Lara was nice, very informative from our first conversation. With her help I found a midwife. I was totally new in homebirthing, very excited aboit my first pregnancy though. Lara gave me lots of information. We had signed contract at our first meeting and it was pure pleasure to deal with her. During my pregnancy we've been since each other for reiki session, for reflexology session that she does. She was always enough, non judgmental, soothing and elencouraging,, positive, fun and very much helpful whenever I had guestion or concern. With my husband we attended her birth class where she explained and showed in details what is going to happen. Even though I was tired to listen, my husband remembered it all. And in time when it's happening mind goes to rest and great spirit works in cooperation with woman's body. It's an epic experience I can say. When time came Lara arrived very quickly in the middle of the night. And then she showed her power, knowledge in action!! She was there for me all the time, somehow she also manged to support my husband in the process. She brought ger own stuff. So there was essential oils to relax me, music to calm us all. She did amazing things with my back, supporting me everywhere, keeping me hydrated. We had moments of laughter. After my son was born I was exhausted and surprisingly for me I had to give birth to placenta. Lara saw me and felt me so good. She was holding my hand and I could lean on her like she was my mother without words she showed me that deep compassion and love in her eyes. I'm beyond grateful for Lara being with at birth of my son. She also helped me with afterbirth time. She did and teach us bending. She took care of my son, so I could sleep, prepared food for me and helped with laundry. I was surprised with how much she could do for a short period of time. Another important thing that we were texting when I was struggling with motherhood first months. And again she was there for me, once she even came late evening, when what I needed was a HUG and little talk, while I was at home by myself with my son and not being able to put him to sleep. Lara is truly a Gift for mothers who needs help with birth and afterbirth. Lots of blessing to her and her family!

Working with Lara was the best decision I made for my delivery. As last minute as I was(SUPER LAST…read moreMINUTE), she made it all work with me. I'm so happy she was there, as soon as she was, I felt more at ease and more comfortable. I turned to her for knowledge and solace. It was my first baby and I had no idea what to expect and my anxiety was through the roof. She was extremely patient with me and was there every step of the way. She made sure to look out for my best interests in labor and delivery, my golden hour with my babe and helped me with latching and breastfeeding. After delivery, she came to check on us and always sent a text every now and again to see how we were and if we needed anything. I've recommended her to family and friends whenever anyone has asked for a doula. And I will continue to recommend her and her business to anyone! Thank you to this wonderful practice!

They are a delightful blend of science and MAGIC! Now that I'm mostly healed I've been getting Thai massage. I just lay there and get worked on and stretched, and 90 minutes fly by. I actually prefer Thai to table massage now and cant believe how great I feel afterwards. Getting regular massages from Dyan has been the best decision Ive made for my health and happiness.

I always leave with my knots and tension released and incredibly relaxed. I saw her regularly during my pregnancy and it was so beneficial!! After 90 minutes with her, I felt like a new person! On top of her 'magic hands', Dyan is unbelievably kind and considerate. On countless occasions she has given me advice on preventive and maintenance methods (stretches, tools etc) to help with my back/neck. She even gave my husband massage tips to help with my labor. My husband and I have both been seeing Dyan for a couple of years in her Bucktown location, but we recently moved to the suburbs and her Palatine location is now closer. And I love it even more!! It's like a sanctuary from all the craziness of the day to day. Beautiful and very zen. It's so relaxing!! I cannot express how fantastic Dyan is and if you're looking for a truly amazing massage, look no further!!

I had a planned epidural and wondered whether a doula would be worth the cost but it completely was and I would do it all over again. She got my birth moving by turning me back and forth and using the peanut ball, she explained to me everything that was happening (at my request), and made me feel in control which was all that I could hope for as my first birth felt very out of control. I would recommend a doula for every birth and definitely recommend Chaka!
