They offer a variety of massages: deep tissue, reflexology, Thai, chair massage by the minute, etc. and have reasonable prices for them. I decided to treat myself to a two hour massage and was able to get a next-day appointment on their website. The massage studio itself is fairly bare bones: you won't find fluffy robes and sparkling water here. When you arrive they have you take off your shoes and give you house slippers. The staff is always very friendly and welcoming. The individual rooms are more like stalls in that the barriers between them don't go all the way to the ceiling, so that means you can hear things from other customers, but it's usually not that big of a deal as people tend to be quiet. They offer relaxing music but don't pay for the service so occasionally you have to hear an ad, but you'll be so blissed out from the massage you won't notice it. The massage therapists really know what they're doing. They'll start by kneeling on you (not as creepy as it sounds) and they will really dig into your knots. They're receptive to feedback if the pressure gets too intense or if there are areas you need avoided. You might not feel the effects of the massage right away, but after a good hot shower and a sleep you'll feel far more limber and in less pain. They also offer couples massages for any duo. When you check out they give you a Thai hard candy and a water bottle.

I've had previous experience with Thai massages and knew what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised that he loved it and wants to go back! These people know what they're doing. I have consistent upper/middle back tension/knots and I felt great walking out of there. The stretching they do can be intimidating for some but, I know how important it is for the human body to stay limber (especially as we age) and I love it. Highly recommend this place, especially if you have back pain &/or knots that need to be worked out. Don't be shy about communicating your needs & wants. They are very nice and accommodating. Our masseuse's were Lisa (for my husband) & Yelli (for myself). We will absolutely ask for them again. Kudos to Thai Siri Bodywork!!!

Not sure what happened, but I should have cut it short when I first realized it was not quite a…read moreThai massage or a professional massage for that matter. Imagine going to a place expecting a Thai style massage. The couple's massage room is a smidge bigger than a regular room leaving barely enough room to store belongings or for two therapists to work. (See photo). There was no room on the left side for a person to stand and it was too tight for the tables to be placed side by side. To add fire to fury, we were told to undress (despite usual loose fitting attire style), there was no place or space to store belongings. It was so cramped. We placed them under our tables on the floor. Katie comes in first and before starting, she asks my partner about pressure preference, Joy, the shorter lady who kneel over my back as soon as she walked in, says I'll ask you later and never does. She never really pulled or used any technique requiring pressure, so I went without any material benefit aside from being there with my loved one. And I seriously think she kneeled over me because she didn't have enough room to stand without bumping the other table. Add to that, 1. Feet are NEVER used 2. There was very little pulling 3. No music - dead silence. I could hear ppl leaving and entering the front door and the doorbell. 4. We purchased 90 minutes and were cheated out of 20 -25 minutes of service. It was 65 minutes at best from start to finish. But we had to pay in advance. 5 minutes consisted of them wiping us with a warm wash cloth. Usually there's no lotion or oil with Thai massages. Oh well. Too late now. After we were told to get dressed, we were greeted with a 5 oz styrofoam cup of water with three cubes of ice. A gargle amount of water. Oh boy! That did it for me. (Wish I had taken a picture). It's pretty safe to say I'll never ever return. Ever. The only reason I'm giving a second star is because my partner had a better experience and a wee bit more massage time. Joy left to get warm towels while Katie massaged. Even after the towels arrived, Katie kept going. If I had it to do over again, I would have made her stop and waited up front for my partner to finish. Whatever you do, don't book a couple's massage or use "Joy". Money wasted. (Would recommend a single massage with Katie - just keep track of your time).

Several months flew by sans a massage and my back was feeling achy and tight again. When I could…read morebarely stretch my arms over my head without feeling sore, I knew I needed to check in for a massage. In the past, I've tried several approaches (Swedish, Shiatsu, Hot Stone, Chinese Tui Na, and Zhi Ya). These methods used to do the trick for me. Initially, I felt relaxed after an hour session however it didn't completely remove all my knots. When all else failed, I knew I had to take on a more aggressive approach. I heard about Thai massage before but I was hesitant to try it due to my negative preconceived notions. The thought of having someone walk all over your back didn't appeal to me; let alone the amount of pressure applied which could possibly crush me to bits. Because of this, I proceeded with caution. When I made my appointment, I told them it was my first time and wanted them to go gentle on me. During my visit, I was paired with Amanda. Amanda was totally patient and in tune with my requests. Looking back, the overall experience wasn't what I had expected. In fact, it exceeded my expectations. My massage started off on a massage table versus a mat. It began with some gradual stretching and kneading which eventually lead to deep muscle compression with the use of my masseuse's fingertips, forearms, palms, and elbows. Amanda checked in with me constantly and asked if the pressure she applied was too weak or strong. I greatly appreciated her attentiveness. The deep muscle compressions she applied cleared out all my stubborn knots in my shoulders and upper back. With a few strokes from her forearms and elbows, I could hear my muscle knots snap, crackle, and pop! Thai massage can be a very involved process where the masseuse will use their entire body (as an aid) to contort yours in order to provide a deeper form of stretch. It may feel strange at first but you just need to trust your masseuse and all will be well. Halfway through my session, Amanda got on the table as I was lying flat. She then proceeded to kneel over my hamstrings and pull my arms back to open up my ribcage and shoulders. Que in more snap, crackles, and pops! If this is your first time doing a Thai massage, you may immediately feel a sense of relaxation and release followed by tiredness within an hour after your session. It's probably best to not schedule anything else for the rest of the day because after my massage, all I wanted to do was go home and sleep. I was sore for a good 48 hours in the area where I was worked on. If the same occurrence happens to you, don't be alarmed. It's normal. It's typical and mostly due to the pent up lactic acid being released from the knots. It will go away. Just stay adequately hydrated with H20 before and after your session to alleviate post soreness. By day 3 I was feeling great. I was reinvigorated and my range of motion increased drastically. I even felt like my posture was corrected during the process! After a Thai massage session, I can never go back to any other method. The pricing was a big draw too. Princess Spa fares better in value compared to higher end spas. They have 2 locations. I went to the one in Lakeview and I believe they have a second one in River West. I plan on definitely coming back. Highly recommend!
