I felt so relaxed I didn't want to leave! Massage was great for my aching parts and helping the muscles to relax and recover. Best place in the Chicago area to enjoy a massage. read more

Carol was outstanding! Her quality of work, communication and job knowledge made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire session. Vive is fortunate to have her on their staff! read more

Where do I begin? I was looking for a new massage place to go to. I didn't particularly like the last one I went to. I found Vive on Yelp. I looked at the prices and they were a little higher than other places I found. When I looked at the reviews, I could see why. Vive appeared to know what they were doing. I made my appointment online. Easy peasy. I get a phone call the next day. Oh no, are they going to reschedule me? No indeed. They were asking me about the medications I was on, my medical history and what I was looking for in a massage. I was impressed. Never have any of my massage companies asked me all this information. My massage was today and I went in. Nice looking office and waiting area. They have a parking lot. Place was clean, personable ladies at the desk. They took me to a separate waiting area that was dim and relaxing. I filled out a form with all my information. Orion came out and brought me in. I would say she sat with me a good 10 minutes, discussing my history and asking questions. Then she asked again about what pressure I wanted. She was very vocal about telling me if the pressure is too hard to be sure to let her know. What I experienced was wonderful. She had a nice firm touch and seemed to take a lot of time doing what she needed to do. By the time I was done, I was really relaxed. Since this was my first time with Vive I only purchased one session. I intend to purchase a package and return often. It was nice to get a senior discount. read more

Love Vive. Friendly check-in and great massage (my massage therapist is Samantha). Highly recommend Vive. Clean, with a great ambiance. I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

Chris is an amazing therapist here. Techniques are on point and relaxing at the same time. I got very lucky to land on him by chance. I'm a regular now. Whole staff is kind, courteous, and friendly. Thank you read more

I had the most amazing massage with Aquarius! She is so sweet and listens to exactly what you need. Her style is the perfect blend of relaxing and therapeutic. My blood pressure actually went down. I know this because I've been a massage therapist for 23 years. I actually got off the table and felt like I was on some sort of relaxant. My lower back feels so much better and I can actually sleep tonight!!!! I cannot recommend her enough. read more

Receptionist steered me towards the correct therapist! Orion is incredible! Very intuitive and skillful at finding those areas that need attention! Vive! goes the extra mile in customer care, experience and staff. Thanks again! read more

I went here for a massage on a difficult anniversary, and Shirley did an amazing job. It really helped me relax and feel better on a challenging day. read more

Updating my review with another 5 stars as it's been several years since I reviewed Vive. Every single massage therapist that I've seen here has been amazing. I can tell that after each session careful notes have been added to my file because they bring up past "issue" areas and ask how those are doing. I love the communication and collaboration - you can really tell that each session is catered to what you need. The booking process has improved greatly in the last few months. Super easy online & email reminders are nice if you're booking weeks in advance. I think my favorite time to come is during the week in the early morning, parking is the easiest this way. Overall, I've been coming to Vive for years & will continue to drive to Park Ridge specifically because I trust that I'll leave relaxed and much less tense. I recommend buying a bulk of packages - you'll thank yourself when you want to book a massage again. read more

Aimee is thorough and really listens to what I need. She has intuitive skills and addresses issues that she senses while she's working. She's incredible! read more

Love this place! Aimee is fantastic and the sauna always feels good afterwards! Friendly staff, very clean, good parking and easy to schedule! read more

Outstanding therapeutic massage by Chris S! Highly recommend! He checks all the boxes of what a top tier massage should be. Professional, kind, considerate and very knowledgeable. He really listens to your concerns, and I felt so much better and relaxed afterward. Cannot say enough! Just GO :) read more

This is the perfect place to rejuvenate, heal and relax. I am a regular customer and I am always fully restored and refreshed when I walk out, I highly recommend Vive Therapeutic Massage, you won't be disappointed. read more

I had another absolutely amazing massage with Rose today. I am so grateful to her for her care. Here are a few things that make her and her massages so special: - Rose is a gentle, kind, quiet person. No unnecessary chit chat. No commentary during the massage. This is so important to me and I really appreciate her style. - Use of HEAT. I run cold and it causes me to tense up. She started the massage with this warm water bottle thing on my back. Then when I turned over, she put something warm under my neck and shoulders while she worked on other areas. And she made the bed nice and toasty for me as well. - So much focus on my areas of concern. She didn't ignore anything but I often leave other massages feeling like I didn't get what I needed where it hurts. Not with Rose. - Balancing. Sometimes my shoulders and neck get tight when the other side is being worked on. No one else ever addresses this, but several times I felt Rose gently rub or press the side opposite where she was working to reassure those muscles and get things calmed down. - She ended the massage over my problem areas so that the last thing I felt is relief there. I honestly needed a few minutes to put myself back together when she was done. I was so relaxed and felt so cared for. I cannot wait for my next Rose massage. read more

My husband and I are so lucky to have Chris as our massage therapist. Chris is the utmost professional who begins the session by asking what's going on, taking notes and working on those areas in addition to making certain to get all the other necessary parts of your body. Chris will gently but strongly work on all your problems until he gets rid of them, always checking in to make certain the pressure isn't too much or not enough. We can't say enough good things about Christopher, he's truly gifted. Chris works with such diligence and expertise that every time I leave I feel like a new person. He respects everyone and cares for his patients with grace and kindness. Chris is an extremely gifted massage therapist. If we aren't able to go for a week we can really feel the difference in our aging joints. The front desk staff is organized, fun and helpful in organizing appointments for the future, explaining the packages offered and saving the client some money. The facilities are very clean. Every person we've met at Vive is very nice. Thank you Vive! read more

I have been coming here for years and everything about the place is first rate. Cesar is my usual massage therapist and he is professional, supportive and does a fantastic job every time I go. The other great thing about Vive is if you pay for an hour , you get an hour of massage. That is not the case everywhere! read more

Vive never disappoints. I wasn't able to get in to see Cesar, so tried a new therapist that just joined Vive. Sharon did an amazing job and is a great addition to the Vive team. read more

Scheduling: You can make an appointment online or by calling in. When you call in (which I did), they asked quite a few questions to help find the right therapist for me. Parking is a little tricky here; it's crowded and hard to make out the proper lanes in the dark. This is especially difficult if it is your first time. When I walked in, I was greeted with a hot wrap for my neck and shoulders and a drink. If it is your first visit, they ask you come 15 minutes early to fill out some paperwork so they can tailor your experience. I've filled out a few of these in the past but it's never been used until now. I booked 60 minutes with Gabi and she was fantastic! She took the time to listen and understand my concerns then focused on my problem areas and adjusted the pressure accordingly. I'm beyond grateful and will be back! read more

Vive! Therapeutic Massage - Massage Near Me - Park Ridge, Illinois

I've been to many, many massage places and seen many massage therapists and this legitimately the best place I've ever been to. Every detail of the business is great! I've seen several of their massage therapists and each have been outstanding massages. They each have asked good questions and paid close attention to detail to ensure I was having a good experience/massage. They also take notes on the sessions and will ask you follow up questions the next time you see them. I've never seen another place take notes. It's impressive. I also really appreciate that they have bios about the massage therapists on their website as well as the pressure the MT uses. This is also uncommon and a detail I really like. Their front desk is very professional but friendly. They do online scheduling. They also have a well designed parking lot for space they have. read more

Wonderful massage and service. Was my first time here. Highly recommend especially after the holiday whirlwind!!

High quality massage by Gaby! She listens to what's going on beforehand and addresses those needs appropriately. 5 stars is not enough for her! read more

Disappointed to have experienced being treated rudely for calling twice after changing my mind to book an appointment. Decided not to book anything at all. Been here once for a once nice massage, oh well. read more

Outstanding in helping to correct problems with muscles that won't relax in my neck and back !

I have been in search of a legit massage studio for years after relocating to the area and couldn't find the right touch. My Physical Therapist recommended Vive! and I haven't looked elsewhere since. I've only seen Cesar and he is wonderful! Attentive to my concerns, perfect pressure and kind. The waiting room is cozy and the front staff are very helpful. I'm so glad I found this wonderful place and have been retuning for the past few months! read more

SJ did my massage, she was so knowable of what I needed. The next day I was able to be back to normal. She showed me how to stretch my back at home. Thank you read more

Kathleen did exactly what I needed for my back pain and legs pain. She helped me with some exercises as well. Her pressure was just right for me and she made me feel very comfortable. read more

Had a massage there this week with Janice. I was looking to get deep work on my right shoulder due to an injury. Janice was absolutely a miracle worker. She (at my request) mostly skipped the rest of my body to focus entirely on my problematic shoulder, just working on it as long as it took to loosen the shoulder and get it feeling better. It felt fantastic, and my shoulder still feels 1000% better two days later. In addition, the other staff there at their well-kept location were friendly and helpful. The space itself is very nice, and parking is abundant. I couldn't ask for more. read more

Therapist is very patient and thorough in explaining. Outstanding. Five stars.............

What an amazing organization! My father has alzheimers and the medication can cause cramps. We've been coming to Vive for 3 years and the results have been amazing. Alvin has gone out of his way to make a personal connection with my dad. Although dad will forget Alvin continues to treat him with the utmost dignity and respect. If there was an option for more than 5 starts you would receive it. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! read more

My birthday gift from my husband was a 60 minute massage at the location of my choosing. After doing some research, I landed on Vive!, largely based on the number of positive reviews. My husband decided to get a massage, too, so we booked tandem appointments for a Saturday afternoon. I saw Lisa for my massage and cannot overstate how wonderful she was. On my paperwork, I disclosed an injury from an accident. She sat down with me and talked about it and made a recommendation for how she wanted to spend the hour. I agreed with her assessment and I'm so glad I did. She spent the entire hour focused on my back, shoulders, neck, and head. After ten months of nearly constant pain and misery, I left today feeling like a new woman. Range of motion was restored in my neck; the nagging pain that's lingered in my shoulder was gone. My husband saw Chris and raved about his experience (his first massage ever!). He's been sore from some strength training and exercise, and said that he feels much better after his massage. I have a strong feeling we'll both be back! read more

Sue was exceptional. Her intuitive skill touched on every trouble spot. She also gave me a plan to ease my pain. I've made my next 2 appts. I'm grateful to have found such a talented therapist. read more
