I'm had a great massage on my birthday! Love the aesthetic and ocean sounds. I was shorted 4 mins. Lol but that didn't stop me from signing up for a membership! Can't wait to return. read more

I wouldn't recommend this location or plan to repeat service here. My experience: I scheduled a 25 minute massage (with $20 deep tissue and $30 cupping up-charge). I ended up getting 15 minutes of the massage (without the cupping) since I was 5 minutes late to the appointment. The total cost for the massage ended up being $85 (or $5 per minute) and I had to ask for the cupping to be removed from the bill since I didn't receive the service. In my opinion, this cost or practice is not a good value for the service provided to me. Additionally, it wasn't a great massage but 15 minutes is a short time to make that happen-- in my opinion it was the equivalent of a mall massage in quality and quantity. Update: despite their response, no one ever reached out to me read more

I've visited many of the NOW locations in Chicago, and Alondra P. was the best masseuse I've had at any of the NOW locations, and probably the best masseuse I've come across anywhere! I came out of my 80 minute signature massage with hot stones feeling better than I have in months, due to various injuries and ailments. She listened to the areas that needed working on and repeated them back to me. Her technique was top notch! I left with relaxed shoulders and back, as well as major relief from a plantars facitis flare in my feet. I already booked another massage with her in two weeks! Thank you so much for your dedication to your craft and your attention to detail in every aspect of my massage! You are appreciated! read more

Came here for a birthday massage and it was awesome. Then entrance is bright and sunny with white walls and tan decor.Then you go into the back, where it's dimly lit, with peaceful sounds, and big tall white drapes bound by rope. Such a delightful contrast for your senses. That one hour massage was just what the doctor ordered and a very memorable birthday !! read more

Emmanuel was a great massage therapist to have. His enhancement recommendations, massage techniques, and attentiveness to my needs helped make this session everything I needed. I will definitely be booking again with him at the West Loop location! read more

Alondra was amazing- my neck and back have been hurting so much and she was wonderful. I don't normally do deep tissue but I'm so glad I did- she's so strong but it was never painful. She's got a really good sense of where the knots are and how much pressure to apply. Rebooked with her already! Thanks Alondra! read more

Jayda was a great masseuse. I appreciated her pressure, communication, and she was the first person to ever actually stretch my body thoroughly when booking "The Stretch" massage. However, I am not sure I would return. For starters, the facility uses a separate tipping mechanism that charges you a fee. It's absurd to pass the fee on to the consumer and it was not disclosed which was super annoying. I might have seen cash envelopes on the side but that was not verbally confirmed or shared as an option by the front desk. Secondly, in LA the same facility had a chart you'd fill out where you can circle what you wanted to focus on and more importantly what you did not want touched. This was a great communicative tool because once you step into the facility, the masseuse is whispering because they're trying to maintain quiet (as they should) but it makes it harder to hear them and they're taking you out of the moment to confirm if they can touch your glutes, scalp, face etc. As other reviews have mentioned, there is a burlap sack that separates the "rooms" which isn't the worst but it's odd. There's also no separate changing room so if your neighbor is clumsy and inconsiderate you might hear them during your session. If you're in a pinch, it's worth a try. I won't say I'd never be back but I am searching for more spa-like services. read more

5/5 love this place. My husband and I are members and look forward to our monthly massages. So glad there are multiple convenient locations! Printiss was awesome. I definitely recommend! read more

Alondra is the absolute best. Just the best. Has ruined all other massages for me:) Her touch and attention to detail is like no other. A real professional. read more

Front desk staff kind but clearly reading what to say from a script verbatim. Reminds me of massage envy. Not consistent experience. read more

I don't even have the words to express my gratitude for Jacob and the NOW West Loop! He's the best massage therapist I've seen in Chicago and I've seen A LOT lol his attention to detail is unmatched and I always leave floating out of there feeling incredible. My job entails typing all day so my posture isn't the best, which leads to neck and back pain, and seeing him consistently twice a month has almost erased it completely. Thank you, Jacob! If you're looking for a new masseuse, this is your sign. read more

The massage was great everything else was absolutely horrible! there was dog feces trampled through in front of the door just as you walk in! I brought it to their attention, it was still there when I left. candle had a bad scent, and the walkway to the massage room had a white door with caked up dirt. not a very clean or stress free environment to encounter right before your massage. read more

I had a massage with Jeff who definitely exceeded my expectations. He listened to my needs and concerns and was also intuitive enough to know what I needed. I was canceling my membership but decided not to as I've been looking for the right fit since moving here from the west coast. read more

I work 13 hour shifts 6 days a week. i am on my feet all day! I was feeling super tense and was in need of a full body deep tissue massage. THE NOW in West Loop had an 80 hour appointment available and i booked with Lea ASAP. She understood how much pressure was required without causing me pain. I felt like i could move again after! Definitely recommend booking with her!! read more

Loved my 80 minute experience with Tina. Massage was relaxing. Selected deep tissue as my add on and am glad I did. Will definitely be back!

I'll put a TLDR at the bottom. I got ( THE STRECH) and THE SCALP TREATMENT. This came up to $175 without tax or tip. I've had massages done before by professionals, so I'm aware how these massages are done. The staff is welcoming but they're not very clear when explaining what you'll be doing. I was here yesterday with a friend and I really wish there was more to the massage for what I paid. I do have to admit we arrived 5 minutes late and I understand that shortens your appointment, which was more than okay with me, but I also got a scalp treatment. What they don't tell you is that scalp treatment is included in the 50 minutes you reserved, which doesn't seem fair. I'm pretty disappointed with my service as well because although the staff and massage therapists are nice, and the place itself is very clean, there was different treatment done to me and my friend even when we got the SAME massage. She told me her massager did really good by going deep and cracking her back and shoulders, but mine didn't do so. My friend and I were disappointed by the scalp massage because it was only adding and massaging oils to your scalp, which was $20. In that case I would've rather done it myself at home. TLDR: In my opinion, the service wasn't worth the pay or time. If you want to come here for the aesthetic then yes, but for professional service, probably not. read more

I really wanted a relaxation type massage. I selected light/medium pressure. When we started on shoulders and the masseuse asked if the pressure was ok, it was. However, on bigger muscles such as legs, arms they really went much deeper and it became much more of a therapeutic deep tissue type pressure which- while I'm sure is good for me overall- has left me sore, and really hurt during the process. I should have probably said something, but I figured I'd go with it to get the benefit of deeper tissue massage. I already couldn't really relax as the sound level which couldn't be adjusted was WAY too loud. The oil used left me really sticky. I showered as soon as I got home, and when I went to bed, I can still feel it on my legs. I, personally, cannot stand that. I also agree with another reviewer who mentioned the odd burlap type room separation vs. real walls being not relaxing. I think if you are looking for deep tissue, you'd like this place, but for me - this was not the relaxing experience I really wanted. I also feel like the add-on's I added were not really worth it- $200 for 80 mins and I feel frustrated vs relaxed. read more

I've been getting massages for over 10 years, have been a member of another massage company for over 6 years - going consistently consistently. One Friday morning there were zero openings for a massage that night and I'm last minute based on my work schedule for when I can book massages. So I looked elsewhere and saw the now. And the first massage I got there- in the south loop- not kidding I asked to sign up for the 80 mins a month on the spot without them even asking because of how great the experience was. So I went back for the second time today but to the west loop location just based on schedule, and I left saying the same thing again- that it was the best massage of my life. I am so relaxed and already booking my next session. Couldn't say a bad word about any of the now locations I've been to. read more

AMAZING! Love coming here and seeing Araceli and Audrey! Front staff is also so sweet. Very clean and welcoming environment!

I always ask for Alaya , she's amazing especially with the cupping and gua sha enhancements.

Great massage!! Very relaxing and mind felt free and glowing. Jeff gave the best massage with deep pressure and all muscles got a good workout leaving me feeling better than before. read more

Audrey did an amazing job! Top tier massage and one of the best massages I've ever gotten. Will definitely be coming back here again!

Kate at West Loop NOW was very helpful in recommending what would help me best upon my current complaints. After the massage was done, it was clear she was spot on. Provided relief I was hoping for today. read more

The staff is very friendly. The place is calming and feels serene. I had a lot of muscle soreness that needed to be addressed. Jeff is great for deep tissue. I highly recommend him. read more

I've been coming here and trying different therapists for a couple months now. I just had an appointment with Jacob and WOW. This was the best massage I've had in a long time and I get massages regularly. Jacob was great about taking my feedback and applying it during the massage. I actually feel like this was a therapeutic experience. I have already booked another session with him. read more

I've had massages with both Erin and Samantha and you can't go wrong with booking with either one. The vibe and ambiance is amazing so calming, the music and atmosphere is welcoming and a complete chill vibe. After my massage I always feel better and have a mental and physical reset which I'm grateful for. I need to prioritize coming here more often, I try to visit once every month but now I'm making it a must weekly. I just feel so much better. This location is my favorite and has the best staff and is so clean. Everyone including the front desk is so welcoming and professional. So excited for my massage next week. With the holidays around the corner, I need to prioritize my health and focus on myself a little bit and take a minute from the crazyness to breathe and spend some time in The Now! Highly recommend this location particularly, it's by far my favorite! read more

I cycled through 3-4 therapists at this location until I found the right one. Ragene is amazing, and her technique is very intuitive.

Fraudulent business practices and bank fraud! They charged my card $160 AFTER cancelling my scheduled appointment on their end. When I called to "reschedule" it they said they were fully booked and that I'd have to get a refund through my bank. LOL. Do not give these people your card information, they legit admitted to fraud on the phone so clearly they aren't getting legitimate massage appointments and rely on charging people who provide their card info. read more

Very relaxing massage with Curtis. Great pressure and added cupping which I recommend. Will be back! Thanks!

Massage section looked kind of odd at first but once you got into you area it felt really nice, clean, and calm. The waves playing over the speakers were annoying at first but felt soothing during the massage. Went in for some real bad neck pain. Got The Now with the Herbal heat wrap which really helped with my pain. My massage therapist Alaya was really good. She asked where I wanted to focus and she did a good job targeting the pain and providing relief. read more

I've had several massages before but never like what Jacob provided! For him to have been a novice, he is very in tune with what one does for a living and what parts of the body are a necessity to ease and massage. A sense of calmness and relaxation washed over me after my experience. Worth the price and experience, from Kevin to Jacob, I will return. Service & Enhancement: The NOW 80 Massage, Herbal Heat Therapy (add-on) read more

first time coming and Kate was great! Had the 50 minute massage, The Now, and added deep tissue. They had a bogo so added the herbal heat therapy. Totally recommend Kate for a great massage, she asked questions about where I wanted the target areas to be for the deep tissue. read more

Writing my first review because it was that bad. Honestly the worst massage and customer service experience to date of any massage studio. My massage started late and was terrible. Before going back, she asked my focus areas and pressure level. I said focus on neck and shoulders only and firm. She spent less than 5 minutes if the 80 minute massage on my neck. The pressure was light, verging on uncomfortable and ticklish on the legs and feet. I told her repeatedly to use more pressure and nothing changed. There was also a man across from me speaking loudly enough that I could hear his entire conversation with his therapist. Not relaxing... We were charged for our two massages on the card we booked with. Great, no problem. We then were each charged an additional 20+% by their Tippy system. Mind you, we were tipping separately and the desk person charged each of us $66 for tip (which the system said was 20%- it's not 20% of the service charge). I realized we spent over $110 in tips upon leaving and called them. I was called back by Juan who claimed to be the Director of Operations for the company. He left a voicemail and has failed to return my three voicemails in return. The last call he sent to voicemail on the 3rd ring. Do NOT go here unless you want to waste your money and get horrendous service and customer support. I truly regret it. read more

I'm still thinking about this lovely experience weeks later. The ambiance whisks you away from your previous life. The masseuse knew exactly what she was doing. She kept me relaxed while working out a few knots in my back. No pain. Relief. Full body massage, toes to scalp. read more

A hidden gem! Super relaxing atmosphere. Staff was very welcoming and friendly. Loved the ocean waves sound they play. Will def return!

I loveeeee the ambience, aesthetic & atmosphere. The customer service is great. Will be returning.

Upon arrival I was greeted with a warm welcome from the front desk attendant. He verified my name and service, offered water and I had my massage shortly after with Tina. I requested deep tissue and her pressure was just right. I left feeling incredibly relaxed! Overall, great ambiance, friendly staff and excellent service. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Wayne was an excellent masseuse! I will return again. Also, I liked that I was able to get a same/day appointment.

Too pricey for what you get. I not given what I wanted or asked for. I had no hand work done to my shoulders, arms, chest or feet during the requested full body massage. The male masseuse seemed uncomfortable to touch another male and he showed up late to the appointment and finished up early with me. ABSOLUTELY NEVER COMING BACK HERE. healthy su spa is a great alternative. read more

Had a session with Tina a few weeks back, really enjoyed my massage and lymphatic draining addition. The entire service was amazing, and the vibe of the spa is so relaxing. Can't wait to go back! read more
