I also checked out another gym that had a sauna but limited hours and the price was higher. Peace, Love and Sweat is the perfect answer to my problem! I visited on a quiet Sunday morning and was very impressed with the clean aesthetic and attentive staff. Even though my reservation got lost in cyberspace the young lady at the front desk was able to free me in right away, explained the available options and benefits, she even helped me set up my Bluetooth so I could listen to my sound bath tunes. The vibes from beginning to end were immaculate! Highly recommend. Especially for those of us who are transplants to Illinois. If you're seeking a warm, rejuvenating safe space you should definitely check out Peace, Love and Sweat!!!

The first time I saw this place, I was intrigued. I didn't have time to pop in, so I did the next best thing and visited the website. I looked over the home section to get the details and then entered the "events" page to find this: "Peace, Love and Sweat was created with a vision. We wanted a space where we could host, educate, and celebrate!" Funny you should say that...I know a certain someone planning a surprise 40th birthday. The owner was amazingly accommodating (poor Ann had to deal with me, my brother-in-law, and my mom)! The staff was very attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout the entire process (THANK YOU)! Party Details: 1.) 25-30 guests 2.) The front desk doubles as the food and beverage area. The owner allowed us to bring in catered food and our own sweet treats. 3.) Plenty of seating options: golden stools, velvety green couch, modern wicker chairs, glass and marble occasional tables, beautiful plants, etc. 4.) The space was cozy, nicely lit (chandeliers anyone?), and extraordinary clean! 5.) Amy, the owner's sis, was available on location during the party. She was available yet incognito so we could enjoy the party. Side note: She showed me a little place in their back room with where the kids could play. My daughter was the only kiddo, but she really loved that option! Clearly, I could go on! I did not go into much detail about the services they offer; as I figured it was more appropriate to do that on my own time and not party time. Nevertheless, I do know the health benefits are wonderful and there's a massage therapist in staff! Plus, if you're in the beauty/health industry, stop by because there could be an opportunity for you here too! Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing your beautiful location with us!

Let me start by saying two people mentioned float tanks/pods to me. One had already had the…read moreexperience and the other was planning to have the experience. All the while I am dealing with inflammation, and chronic pain, headaches, migraines and fatigue. Desperate for relief that would last more than an hour or so, I spoke with my practitioner about the idea. She confirmed she was aware of them but had not done any research or experienced it herself. She encouraged me to try it because my symptoms have been ongoing for so long she didn't think it could hurt. So I booked my appointment as soon as I could. I was excited at first but them panic set in...I would be closed in, I would be floating in the dark. I read the reviews and testimonials. I had to use self talk not to talk myself out of it. I showed up for my appointment and went to my float station and received the instructions from the provider. She told me everything I saw in the videos and some more. I got nervous all over again but I did it. I showered and the lights alternated from one area of the room to the other. I shampooed my hair and took several deep breaths as the lights dimmed. I took in two noodles and a head floaty. I didn't believe I would actually float in what looked like two inches of water when I stepped into the pool. The room was steamy and the water was warm and the evolving sounds of serenity and nature surrounded me. A hint of eucalyptus accentuated the room. As I laid into the water, I went through a series of thoughts and feelings. Initially, anxiety, then being in the womb again, it felt familiar, spiritually closer to my creator, I relaxed into a gentle prayer of peace, gratitude and thankfulness. I often released and forgot about those noodles as well as the knee pain, the back pain and the anxiety. I teetered in and out of grounding exercises that really impressed upon me that if I give in I would truly float. I'd open my eyes briefly to remind myself of where I was and I relaxed into the float. This is quite an experience but I don't want to give everything away so, I will say...I've had to stop three times while trying to write this because the zone is so deep and fresh. I am still in the waiting room and I am glad that I am taking the time to wait as my spouse now takes this journey with me, separately. I encourage you to take the break afterward. Sit in a chair, have a cup of tea and let the moment continue. I am pleasantly aware of my surroundings and am considering that the hour drive home may be sooner than I am ready for. So I'm taking my time so I can get home safely. #itsagoodsensation

This is my go-to massage place in town, and normally Tammy is my masseuse, but today I had a…read morewonderful experience with someone new! I'm a first time mom with a newborn, and my husband told me to get out of the house and do something for myself. I wanted a quick massage, and the only open time slot was 30min with Courtney, who I'd never seen before. I decided that even if it was a "bad" massage, it would still be worth it because I was so desperate. Well, the massage was FAR from bad--it was MAGICAL. From the beginning Courtney was super attentive to my needs and gave me a recommendation on what we should do with our short time. When she found out I was breastfeeding she even went and found a special pillow for me to be able to lay on my stomach. After the massage, she recommended a YouTube channel for postpartum exercises I can do to keep my neck/back loose. 10/10 amazing experience and now I know I can count on two massage therapists to be amazing! Aches Away never disappoints!

She takes lots of time to listen to what areas are bothering you so she knows where to concentrate on during your visit. She also takes the time to explain what she is working on and how all of your muscles work and tie in together. Especially how one muscle can affect other areas. I was in a car accident 1 1/2 years ago with severe whiplash. I couldn't move my neck without pain and had severe headaches because of it. She worked very diligently to get all of my neck function back to normal and off pain medication. She is truly amazing and you won't be disappointed!
