This was an effective massage that I haven't had for awhile. Thank you, Deborah, for delivering it!
I am a mother of two young toddlers and my posture while I was nursing my sons wasn't the best. My back/neck/shoulder have been give me some problems and it also didn't help that I work in an office and sitting in front of computer all day long. I have gone to a few massage therapists in the past. Unfortunately, some didn't make much sense to me and a few of them didn't even have a proper intake.
"Urban Oasis" happened to have an appointment open that fit my schedule and I took a chance to give this place a try. First of all, the ambience was very welcoming and I was warmly greeted. I was able to change to the sandels right away and got offered an beverage of my choice. Deborah, the therapist, then escorted me to the room and everything appeared clean, temperature on the bed was appropriate, and the lighting was just perfect.
Deborah applied strong pressure and it was exactly what I needed for my kind of deep tissue massage! There were some moments that I had to breathe and inhale harder to combat the pressure going through the trigger points and connective tissues, but eventually I felt so much better as the session progressed.
Deborah was so kind to provide me some useful tips for stretching and posture adjustment. She showed a lot of care and I really appreciated that.
The rain shower exceeded my expectation as well. The amenities in the shower room were great and I haven't had any massage service that came with the use of this facility like Urban Oasis. In addition, I received awesome service from the receptionist as well. She handed me a product sample, a discount card for the next service, and explained the referral program.
I believe I have found the spot for getting a regular massage. The location is conveniently located near the CTA North/Clybourn Red Line station. It's also accessible via major bus lines 72 North Ave. and 8 Halsted). Tipping was effortless. I was able to zelle since carrying cash hasn't been popular post-COVID.
