Urban Wellness Chicago

I was looking for my first ever massage in the Wicker Park area within walking distance from my apartment. After coming across the reviews here and reading the bios of the massage therapists on their website, I decided to email them about their availability. Within an hour or two, Terri (the owner and a massage therapist) got back to me with some times for the date I was looking for. Quick and easy scheduling, and Terri even offers a $ 10 discount for your first time coming in.
Walking up the stairs and in their door, I was a little unsure about the place (it is not a storefront, and is on the second floor above City Soles and Flash Taco). It’s an older apartment building from the looks of it, and the «lobby» is more of a living room. However, the massage rooms are normal, peaceful massage rooms. Terri was fantastic and was very accommodating to a first time massage client. I’m struggling to find a time I was more relaxed than right now. My legs were very sore from a leg workout the day before, but they feel as good as new after the massage.
Terri is highly recommended and I will certainly go back next time I need a massage.

Excellent massage therapy.
Highly trained and well educated staff. Terri is phenomenal. Her myofascial work is outstanding. She is very upbeat and friendly.
The space is large, bright, and comfortable. The colors are very relaxing but energizing. The décor is tasteful. Tranquil. Peaceful. Perfect.
The location is convenient to the Blue Line and the rumble from the trains passing slowly by is actually quite relaxing.
Parking is easy to find within a block and it’s usually free.
Make an appointment in advance or hope to luck out with a last-​minute cancelation.
You won’t be envious of anyone else’s massage, heavenly or other, after visiting Urban Wellness.

Terri is one of the best. Every time my back goes out, I give her a call and she snaps me back to health quicker than I could on my own. She knows what she’s doing and she’s damn good at it!

They have given me absolutely no reason to try someone new, even though I have been meaning to. I go at least once a month. :)

I’m thankful Terri was open the day before a half-​marathon to Rock Tape my ankle tendons. All the other rehabilitation offices were closed! She accommodated me for a last minute appointment. She had different styles available. She was incredibly friendly. My ankles felt well supported during the race and didn’t swell at all post-​race. I can’t wait to hear about her Rock Tape workshops so I can learn how to apply them myself.
