Between all the dinners, commuting, engagement parties and business meetings, all of us deserve some extra TLC once in awhile.
REST + RELAXATION = HAPPY PEOPLE
Get some of this and all of a sudden the red line doesn’t smell so bad; you take the tourists’ picture in front of the Sears Tower; and you even buy a “Street Wise” from the guy at the corner. …ummm, well maybe I have taken it a little too far. But you get my drift. So where exactly do you find this much needed tender, love and care? This little slice of heaven is something I like to call Urban Oasis. And you should probably know that Urban Oasis is it’s rightful, legal name. And you should probably also know they have two locations (Lincoln Park and Gold Coast).
As soon as you walk in, you are encouraged to take off your grungy snow boots and slide into Sensi Massage sandals. OMG.
The waiting room is calming in itself. Sip on some water, fruit juice or a cup of organic tea while you are at it too.
When your time has come, your massage therapist will escort you to your very own personal shower room. Slip on a robe and safely store your belongings with lock and key. It does not get anymore VIP than this ladies and gentlemen.
And now for the best part of all…your massage. Urban Oasis provides multiple types of massages, acupuncture, and an aculift facial. Click here to learn more about their services and pricing. The staff is very professional and makes you feel incredibly comfortable. And this is not just one of those places that looks the part. Their massages are good. And I mean damn good. AAaaaaahhhh….
After your service, you have one last indulgence. Rinse and wash in your personal shower room, which the type is chosen upon your arrival. Decide between the Rain, Steam or European Body Spray. Oh…decisions, decisions. The shampoos, conditioners and body wash are all vegan and smell like heaven! They even give you a hair brush, deodorant and a hair dryer so you leave looking just as good as you feel. Simply magnificent.
Hands down one of the best spas in Chicago. Even Yelp agrees. Whether you treat yourself or your partner, everyone deserves a little piece of Urban Oasis.
