I was introduced to Marcus of Wellkinected during my first hair apt by Judith at Judith B's salon. He happened to be giving chair massages to clients and who could resist a relaxing massage while your color is processing? You don't have to pull my leg...this is what I call pampering. My chair massage was unlike any other I've had. Very focused on loosening tight areas in my neck, shoulders, arms and back. It was the longest 20 min I'd ever experienced and I enjoyed every second of it. I felt so relaxed after and that doesn't come easy for me. I booked my first 1 hour massage after I learned promotions were being offered for the month of October only. $31. That's an incredible value for the quality you are receiving and I knew it would be great considering how much I enjoyed sitting in his chair. Everyone in the salon raved about him and they weren't kidding. He first asks you if you are experiencing any soreness or issues. He evaluates your posture & pose and explains what he sees and why. He offers his knowledge and answered all of my questions. My experience with him was nothing like a 'typical' massage. But, I also requested a sport massage. While I was in no discomfort/soreness prior to booking, I wanted my muscles & joints to be in optimal condition. I wanted Marcus to diagnose me and do what he does best. Get those knots and problem areas I didn't even know I had worked on. And he did just that...stretching, lengthening, loosening. To say I was impressed is an understatement. I happen to think he's a massage guru and I can tell he loves what he does. Extremely focused and thorough. In a nutshell, I loved my experience. I can already feel the results of my time with him. I extended my service a half hour so he could focus specifically on issues he found. He's professional, kind and a wealth of knowledge. If you are experiencing any form of discomfort/soreness, I suggest seeing him first.. He might be better than visiting an MD. He offers a few different types of massages, so if you just want to feel relaxed with minimal pressure he can do that too. Located in Suite 202B on second floor in same building as Judith B's. I'm hooked. read more

My sister lost her son (my nephew) to suicide and in her grief really needed some respite. She asked me to post for her because Marcus was SO amazing. He came in on his day off to take care of her. She said she needed a super deep massage and he was strong enough to get out all her knots. And that the facility was also nice. Clean and he was super professional In her words Marcus was "magical." That he was just voted - well deserved - best sports massage therapist in Du Page County. read more

Just has another amazing session with Marcus. The space when you walk in initially is clean and inviting. His room is an extension of that. Marcus' nickname is "Fix-It-Marcus" and he does exactly that. I see Marcus every 3 weeks for job related soreness. If I didn't see him I'd probably be 5 feet tall from hunching over constantly. :-) He literally straightens out my neck, shoulders and back. Not only is he an LMT but also a personal trainer and I really feel that because her knows the human body so well it adds to how he treats you. Love that I've discovered an expert in the field of massage. read more

After nearly five months of headaches, 20 wasted adjustments at a local chiropractic clinic, and way too much Advil, I decided to try massage therapy. From the outset, I trusted Marcus. He asked great questions, listened, and attacked the problem. He explained everything in great detail, how everything was connected and what lead to my problem. Clearly, he knew what he was talking about. I've made great progress and am thrilled to say I'm feeling 100% better. This guy is the goods, and I highly recommend him! read more

Received a massage from Marcus and results are amazing. I have a tremor in my left hand & when he gets done I barely notice it. I feel great. He is very knowledgeable & precise. I highly recommend him. He also has a special for 90 minute massage that is a steal. read more

I had my first massage with Marcus today and I can't wait to schedule another. Before we started he took the time to review my in-take form and understood my problem areas. He then explained what he would be doing to help those areas. Extremely professional and made sure I was never in pain. He even found spots to work on that I didn't even realize I needed. He spends the time with you to ensure he's working on the correct spots. Will definitely be going back and referrals him to people I know!!! The prices are the best around!! read more

I had been searching for a massage therapist that could target the pain I have from chronic knee pain. Marcus did not and has not disappointed since. He is attentive and will focus the massage to the areas that need it. He is absolutely one of the best! read more

So happy to find Marcus Brent!! Having heard about him during my winning hair cut&color at Judith B.'s, I booked an appt. From my explanation of shoulder and hip pains, Marcus starts by review of me walking and that is the start for my RE-learning a healthy walk which will align my neck to my calves! Years of heels have changed my walk step to an undiscovered detriment. So in my massage, all my discomfort points, which I thought were from sitting and screen, actually tie into my gait! Marcus got into the roots of knotted muscles that were expressing pain into my hip. After 2 Swedish massages so far I cannot believe the difference!! I have changed my workouts to corrected walking stride and stationary bike to build these overshadowed muscle groups. Luckily Marcus is also a personal trainer, so soon I will schedule a lesson on how to run correctly!! read more

Best massage experience in the Elmhurst area! Marcus is incredibly knowledgable and can pinpoint the source of pain and tension. Also gave me exercises for home to help prevent future injury. read more

Marcus is a very knowledgeable and thorough practitioner. Notably his knowledge of anatomy is exceptional. He did an assessment of me walking up the stairs and down a hallway to identify how I move as soon as I walked in. My experience with Marcus was so amazingly positive. He explained helpful maintenance things/exercises for me to do for overall health given his assessment of my particulars and his expertise in massage therapy and personal training. You won't get a "back rub" fluffy massage here like we're used to at most places...you WILL get a professional who can hone in on problem areas and truly work on them to get you relief and relaxation. I am most pleased with my visit and I will happily return to see Marcus. read more

Marcus was great. I showed up with what felt like a pinched nerve in my neck and was barely able to move my head. He listened, asked questions, felt for problem areas and gave me reasons as to why it probably happened. He also suggested exercises to counter this from happening again. His massage was excellent and 24 hours later the pain is nearly gone. read more

Marcus isn't your ordinary massage therapist, he helps assess what issues you have, what daily problems you have doing like simple tasks, etc... he evaluates your issues before he works on you to make sure you're getting the therapy you need and that way you're not wasting time or money on a just touch me down feel good massage. I've been through over 25 different therapists and I haven't found anyone more KNOWLEDGEABLE , professional, funny and caring as Marcus is, definitely recommended!! read more
