There were definitely some pros and cons to Joy Foot Spa. I was up the fence on whether giving…read morethem 3 or 4 stars because im really stuck at 3.5. Pros: - Peter was my masseuse and he was great. I purchased a Groupon for a 60 minute foot massage and I was upsold by the lady at the front desk to pay an extra $10 to upgrade to 30 min foot massage and 30 minute upper body massage. It was a good decision because all parts of me needed some TLC. Peter made sure that I was okay with the pressure he was using. It was very relaxing and a much needed massage. Peter was great and he deserves 4 stars. Cons: - The masaage parlor is set up where there are about 10 massage beds in the back. I guess if you purchased a "combo massage" that's when you get a private room as you need to undress. I was not aware. I was fine with the "public" massage as they kept the room dim and quiet with spa music playing in the background. - What I did not like was the lady at the front was too loud when she kept letting new customers in the back to get their massages. She was not using her inside voice and had the heaviest of footsteps. She really disrupted the serenity of the parlor and woke me up a couple times from my light sleep during my massage. I wish they had a better system of keeping quiet or a better way to let people in the back room. Would I come back again? Maybe. I may try a couple other parlors first and see how those go.

Love this spot. Seriously…read more Joy Foot Spa is one of those places where you walk in and instantly feel more relaxed. It's clean, calm, and just has a really good vibe. Every time I go, the experience is consistently great. Mark, the owner, is awesome. You can tell he genuinely cares about the business and the people who come in. It doesn't feel corporate or transactional. It feels personal, and that makes a big difference. And Jenny is the best. She's my go to every time. Strong hands, super intuitive, and she somehow always finds the exact spots that need work. I walk in tight and stressed, and leave feeling completely reset. If you're looking for a solid, reliable place with people who actually care, Joy Foot Spa is it. Definitely ask for Jenny. I'll absolutely be back.

Royal Massage is a good option that I found recently for massage. They offer a good variety of…read moreservices and the masseuses there actually utilize some decent technique, unlike many other Chinese massage places I've been to in other states. It's situated in a small strip mall, adjacent to a Vet Clinic. Inside, the rooms are comfortable and dimly lit. Soothing background music is played as well. When I usually go here, I get a combo, 30min back massage w/ no oil and then 60min foot massage, or vice versa, depending on the day and how I'm feeling. I've only been here a handful of times, so I don't have a masseuse that I ask for regularly, but the two that I've had, they seem to be competent. I never leave here feeling worse than when I went in...lol I realize Vernon Hills is a bougie area, so the prices here are adequate I guess. Although one complaint is that their pricing, at least from what I've seen, is never really consistent. My first time there, the lady who massaged me came up with a price for the foot and back combo, that wasn't even on the service menu...and then the next two times I went, the same service, with another lady, was about $20 more expensive. That's my only complaint about Royal Massage thus far. Overall, a good spot to come and relax.

Instead of offering to check the room or ask the staff if anyone had found it, the owner quickly told me they were not responsible for personal belongings left behind.

Based on my experience, I would be very cautious about bringing any valuables into this business.
