My girlfriend and I scheduled a couples massage with you this past Saturday. Neither of us had ever been to Massage Evolved. She is use to getting massages regularly and this was my second massage ever. We had such a lovely experience. The masseuses were so good, attentive and clearly masters of their craft. The ambience of your facility is so soothing. Every aspect of the experience was perfect and we will definitely be back! read more

Due to Covid, I havent been able to get a massage for 18 months so a massage was long over due. On a recent trip to Chicago, I found Massage Evolved and I was able to book a same day appointment online with Susana. Massage Evolved is located in a secure office building. I pressed the intercom button but someone was coming out so I walked in and took the elevator to the 2nd floor. The glass entrance door was locked so I called and they let me in. Since Ive been exercising for 18 months without a massage, I was quite tight. Susana worked through all the areas that I specified. As some of the other reviews mentioned, she is quite strong but I communicated the level of pressure and she was great at maintaining that level. After the massage, I felt great and I wasnt sore the following day. read more

Everyone was very friendly & accommodating. I would absolutely recommend Justin! He was very personable & informative. He even recommended certain breathing exercises to help relieve tension & stress. read more

Massage therapist didn't listen to me, didn't work on the problems that I had come to her with, continued to put pressure and pain on previous injuries to a point where parts of my arm have gone numb, range of motion is worse than when I came in, and am in pretty bad pain from it, also I am now in much worse pain overall from my head and my back that we're not there when I came in. I want my money back read more

Stephany was very attentive to areas which required and did an amazing job as always! Highly recommended for anyone looking to have a great first experience at massage evolved. read more

I came out of this in more pain than when I came in and out $200, so I'm writing this in hopes that I can save someone else this experience! My therapist was Kim, and though I filled out the form as required, she told me she wouldn't be using firm pressure as requested and would only do so for the shoulders area. I thought this was strange but that maybe it'd be okay and she knew something I didn't. It started out with what I can only describe as light pressure, so I asked for more pressure, and she did a little more for a few minutes and then reverted back to what she was doing before. Meanwhile, the pillow setup was really rough on my lower back. I didn't trust that my therapist would be responsive to feedback, but after a bit I did ask her to switch it up since it was painful. By that point there thankfully wasn't much time left. I felt like this was a huge ripoff and actually a net negative for my pain, and I'm genuinely puzzled by all the five-star reviews. I get frequent massages and this is in the bottom 10-20% for sure. I would unfortunately not recommend to anyone. read more

Very professional and calming space. The staff was very kind and on time. The experience was very relaxing and the couples massage experience was perfect! The hot stones added a nice touch to the experience read more

Saw Haley for a swedish massage with medium firmness, and she was wonderful!! She rivaled my 4-year regular massage therapist in another city. She found the tight spots and expertly flexed her methods and firmness to work out the knots. Haley gave an excellent massage, leaving me relaxed and my muscles worked out. Will definitely return! Site notes: easy to find on the second floor (helpful signage too!), cute decor, appropriately low lighting in the rooms (no blindness when you're blissed out), and they offered a free Fiji water read more

We got the couples massage, and it was a great experience. The ambiance was so relaxing and sensual in the spa. The massage felt amazing, and the masseuses were very kind, professional, and clearly skilled in their profession. I would recommend this spa to anyone in Chicago, and I would visit again. read more

Massage Evolved - Waiting area - Massage Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Yelp to rescue again! It's been a seasonal ritual for the last few years to increase my massages, hot showers, and savory food around the Winter time. I can honestly say ever since I started getting massages in the Winter on a regular basis I don't get sick near as often as I used to. Of course I'm also exercising more and eating much healthier. I'm sure that plays a role too. Anyway, Juliet is amazing!! I had an hour long deep tissue/ triggerpoint massage and it was awesome! I've had massages elsewhere, and trust me, they were great in the moment. I'm adding Massage Evolve at the top of my "self-care" list. Btw, Massage Evolved is in a small space but it's elegantly furnished. Massage Evolved feels like a real oasis in a city that doesn't often lend itself to "peacefulness". read more

Massage Evolved - Sign in the restroom. I loved it! - Massage Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Such a peaceful and clean environment, kind and knowledgeable staff, muscles felt very relaxed from my massage with aromatherapy with Ariel.

The suite and space is set up beautifully, very welcoming. It's clean, smells nice and I was given a complimentary mimosa upon arrival. Rhema made me feel instantly comfortable, she's talented and checked in throughout the appointment. As a first time customer and only in town for a short time, I was able to secure a same-day appointment for a very fair price, especially for the experience I got in return. read more

My husband and I had the couple's massage yesterday. The spa is beautiful and felt very tranquil and clean. My husband loved his massage but my massage with Susana was way too painful. At first this was probably my fault for putting a request for "firm" pressure on the intake form. I usually like firm pressure, so I was surprised when it quickly became too intense for me. This initial misunderstanding would have been fine, but unfortunately the therapist didn't adjust the pressure even after I was complaining about pain and tensing up through most of the massage. She also spent a lot of time poking into my underarm area and anterior shoulder that was sensitive and ticklish. The therapist kept telling me to relax, and insisted she needed to work aggressively on these areas despite my complaints. After finally moving away from these painful areas the other 50% of the massage was good, so I figured she finally took my requests to heart, but then she went in super deep again into my forearms to the point I yelped and almost jumped off the table, and again she didn't reduce the pressure and continued even deeper. Very disappointing. I was frankly shocked at this experience and didnt really know what to say to the therapist when it was over when she asked how I was, so I just said "looser" which was true, but she quickly walked away before I could leave this level of feedback to her in person. Thankfully there was no injury as a result of this, although I left more stressed out than when I walked in and today my neck is quite sore. However, since the spa is very nice and my husband had a great massage, I would probably try again, but definitely with a different therapist. read more

The masseuse was very thorough, and explained everything. The atmosphere was calming. The front desk staff was courteous. It was overall a great experience. read more

I love this place, the massage therapist Brittany was incredible. She is truly talented. She got 10 years worth of knots in my back and shoulders out in about 1 hour. I felt like a different person from when I walked in. This place is a hidden gem! read more

The girl who did my facial was extremely nice and friendly, she talked about what she was doing with the lotions and potions and made sure I was comfortable with everything. I explained to her that my eyebrows were a sensitive area and she made sure not to put anything on or near them. 10/10! read more

I'm not one to leave reviews - especially negative. But I've never in my life had a massage therapist disregard my feedback about the pressure. I went in for a Swedish massage, not deep tissue, because I just wanted a relaxing experience. I mentioned that upfront. But multiple times during the massage when I said that the pressure was painful and that it hurt, the therapist said it was because I was tense there. I tensed up and didn't breath because the pressure was way too much. This happened on my back where the therapist dug her elbows into my shoulder blades (unfortunately, now I have a pinched nerve), on the tender spots of my arms and calves, and my neck. Of the many massages I've had in my lifetime, I've never been choked until this massage. She pressed so hard on my larynx that I couldn't breath and then told me it hurt because there was so much tension. I walked out feeling bruised and sore when all I wanted was a relaxation massage. Though I have had pretty decent massages at this spa in the past, I'll try somewhere else from now on in the hopes of getting someone with good techniques who listens to client preferences. read more

Super disappointed to book a massage and reiki appointment online, pay for it, and the day of, find that they did not have my appointment on their books at all. All I received was, "sorry, we can book you for another day". Not acceptable. Worst first impression. They certainly lost my business, but honestly, I don't think they care. read more

I have been to Massage Evolved from time to time for last 4 years and I have always have had a positive experience. I intentionally go there for their Ashiatsu, it is one of the best places I have been to for such service. On 1/7/21, I had an appointment with Abbey K and she did a great job. She asked me questions and focused on areas we discussed. Very professional and great COVID 19 preventive practices. Massage Evolved has a great staff and always deliver a positive experience. Keep being great! read more

I'm SO happy with my experience at Massage Evolved with Ruby. This was my first time having shiatsu and now I don't know how I'll ever be able to enjoy a "regular" massage again. Ruby is one of the most talented massage therapists I've ever encountered and it seemed like she actually CARES. Every time I'm in Chicago I'm 100% going to be making more than one appointment. The space is beautiful, tastefully decorated and the whole staff was suuuuuuper nice. Absolutely 100% recommend. read more

I had a 60 minute Ashiatsu Deep Tissue Massage with Lauren today. She was extremely friendly, professional, and did incredible work, especially on every area I had requested. Very happy, and hope to come back when I am in Chicago again. Would highly recommend if looking for a good quality massage. read more

Loved the experience! My boyfriend and I went for our anniversary/birthday. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, making sure we were comfortable. While answering a series of questions on a form we were offered mimosas which were a nice touch. My boyfriend and I were then guided to our room which was nicely decorated. The room had a great ambiance, very tranquil and quite beautiful. Our therapists (Justin and Susanna) worked on all of our troubled spots and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the entire massage. I would say our only con was that the walls were pretty thin and the waiting room/lobby outside our room was kind of loud. It wasn't the biggest dela to us but if you are looking for a quote tranquil atmosphere that may be interrupted if you go during a busy time. But overall I would definitely go back to this location in a heartbeat. read more

Massage Evolved - Couples massage room - Massage Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Massage evolved is a hidden gem. I get Ashiatsu massage every month and my therapist Steph is incredible. The place is very clean, with good energy and friendly staff. I highly recommend Massage evolved. read more

Booked a couples massage and my work schedule has been pretty hectic to where I had to reschedule my appointment. I work 24 hour shifts and I have mandatory overtime. I called to try to reschedule my appointment and they took half of my payment for the couples massage and also told me that I would have to pay another fee for myself. So although they rescheduled, I would pretty much would be paying all over again to make the appointment a couples massage. I can't patronize that type of business. You can have your fee. read more

Did a 90 minute at ME. The masseuse was excellent with respect to level of pressure and identifying problem areas; really enjoyed the massage. Nice front desk staff as well. read more

Rhema was very nice, and skillful, the space was beautiful, and I felt the results. I was very impressed with her knowledge of triggerpoints and muscles and their locations and connecting points. You could tell she had studied and wasn't just winging it. read more

We got the couples massage for my boyfriend's birthday. They basically rubbed out years of grad school from our bodies. It was exquisite, peaceful, and the ambiance was pure relaxation. read more

This is my FAVORITE massage place in the entire city - I've been to at least a dozen (Trump Spa, Fit Foot, Massage Envy, Soothe - in home with app, Revive Massage, BodyTrippin, Holistic Health, etc.) and I've been happy with them all. But... THIS place stands out. Here's why: - The online booking tool is convenient. You can even book same day if the availability is there. - They offer a lot of different types of massages depending on your needs. Ashiatsu for tight glutes, deep tissue for trigger point pains, Swedish for relaxation - you choose. - The space is calming, quiet and professional. The sheets are soft (I've been to places with cheap scratchy sheets and it ruins the entire experience), the beds are warmed, and the place smells amazing. - Gabriella Gabriella is INCREDIBLE. A couple of times she even sent me follow-up emails with stretches for specific areas where I was having trouble (after asking if I'd want that) and to check in on how I'm doing. I have never had a masseuse do that before, and I love it! And, her massages are like magic. In one instance, my back was killing me; I went to see her and woke up the next day feeling 100%. I can't recommend her or this place enough, and I'm a pretty tough critic. 5+ stars. read more

Highly recommend a deep tissue massage with cupping. Make sure to drink plenty of water and eat light for a few days. I felt amazing.

They never have the same therapists, and have trouble booking & keeping appointments. They don't give the full time allotted (typically ending a full 15-20 minutes before the scheduled time), and the CBD massage does *not* use CBD products as advertised: again, the product changes every time. There is no consistency! Do not trust the online system to state who you will get as a therapist, either! As a client, you have zero control of this experience, which is not a good place to be when you're paying this much. For a run of the mill massage this place is way too expensive for what you get: stick to Massage Envy. read more

My wife and I went today for our one year anniversary. First time here and you have some life long clientele. Susana did a great job on me as well as Jill with my wife. They hit all my probable areas and worked them out. I highly recommend this place read more

I'm sooooooooo relaxed after an amazing session at Massage Evolved! I booked a couples massage for my husband's bday-- but forgot to account for Mother's Day traffic. called to let them know we would be about 10 min late and they were so accommodating and didn't rush us at all. They even gave us mimosas! Our massage therapists were Rema and Susanna-- and we will be booking with them again. Hands down the best massage I've had in years!! If you're on the fence about booking-- just do it. You deserve it! read more

It was the first time coming to this massage place. We were kindly greeted by the receptionist. She offered water and mimosas. The waiting area was nice and peaceful which was relaxing. Once we were brought into the room we received a 60 minute massage which was very nice and relaxing. Once the massage was over there was a bathroom within the room which was a full bat from which was very nice and convenient. The couples massage cost $220 for 60 minutes. I would overall recommend this place. Very nice if you're visiting Chicago read more

Fantastic massage, very relaxing atmosphere. Staff and masseuses were kind and professional, listened to all requests. Can't wait to visit again! read more

I've been searching for a good Sports massage therapist and was almost giving up hope when I made one final attempt to find that person. I scheduled my Sports massage with Maria, I am so glad I did. She was able to really work out all of the knots and Stretch me. She also gave me great advice to do at home, I will absolutely be coming back to see her. read more

I would take away the one star but I must put something to post! NEVER give this business your money! They literally steal money and discriminate. I had a 4:30 appointment. I showed up at 4:05 and tried to get buzzed in from the outside for over 20 minutes. I kept buzzing the spa and calling to no answers. Keep in mind to book online you must pre pay. Had I not have already paid I would have left. So after 20 minutes trying to get in without success someone else left the building so I was able to get upstairs. As I get there they have a glass door to the studio that is also locked? I'm wondering if there was an emergency and they had to close early? As I look through the windows I see lit candles and shoes at the door( they make you remove them and wear their slippers upon entry.) So I figure I will sit outside the door and wait. Maybe they took a break and will come let me in at 4:30. Nope. At this point yes I have reached irritated after spending over 30 minutes trying to get in to get a relaxing massage. So far not relaxed at all! After 4:30 comes I start a solid long steady knock. At 4:33 an employee comes out and said excuse me, giving me attitude while talking through the door. I said I've been knocking and trying to get in for over half an hour ( yes I was early as they tell you to please arrive 15 minutes early in the email confirmation) that would mean someone should been expecting me 18 minutes ago and she's giving me attitude for knocking? Hmm ... she said I don't think I want to let you in ( I guess because I was knocking) I said this is ridiculous may I speak to a manager. You have my money and I'm locked out talking g to you through a door? She responded there wasn't a manager there. Well obviously! She said I can refund you. I said no actually I'd still like to get my massage are you the masseuse if so yes you can refund me. She stated she wasn't the masseuse and that she wasn't letting me in. So she proceeds to call someone I'm assuming a manager and complain about me. I say fine just refund me. She won't answer me and then 2 clients came out of the back to pay and she said " sorry we cant let you out that way because this crazy white lady is out there, you will have to go out the back". Umm why am I crazy and what does my race have to do with it? So to wrap this up. I have yet to be refunded. The employee retreated to the back and never let me in. I found the owners name on the website. Ruby Greenberg it also lists her phone number. I left a voicemail and no one has reached out or reimbursed me. Whoever is in charge is clearly very unprofessional. I do manage people for a living and I would have called this client immediately after being treated like garbage, not let in, called names and still hasn't been refunded! I have never see something so unprofessional in my life! There is nothing they can do to make this ok and I hope everyone that reads this review will never step foot in such a poorly run business! read more

Difficultyi find but great space and awesome ambiance. Got a last minute deal for the fiancé. Loved it!

Love this place! I always have the best massages from Ruby. She really listens to what you want her to focus on. Highly recommend and the new office is SO cute! read more
