The shop is always a breath of fresh air! The moment you enter, you will be greeted by a relaxing aroma that would make you want to relax and sip a warm drink. So far, I bought three plants from this place from two different occasions - cute plants that are still thriving even with my non green thumb. The staff are always very welcoming and friendly. Looking forward to try other wellness services and community activities in the future.

I can't comment on the services but I have been calling this facility for over a week now with general questions. No one ever picks up the phone no matter what time of the day I call. I left a voicemail and noone has yet to return my call. 😕

This is an Oasis in the midst of the city. The massage therapists are knowledgeable, skilled and professional. They provide amazing products of skilled artisans to pamper the body and soul. I always feel a sense of calm the moment I walk thru the door!

Updated review: I've been coming here weekly for more than a year and I honestly don't know what I would do without Leo and my regular massage therapy! And Rhema and my occasional Extra massage. I have chronic pain and fatigue and massage therapy is an integral ingredient to my pain management. I wish I could afford MORE! If I could I'd come every day it's so good! Plus, I've grown to really appreciate a very friendly relationship with Leo, Rhema, Alex and the other staff. I feel very at home here and I really love all the services offered and beautiful merchandise available. I've purchased several gift sets for work appreciation projects and everyone always loves the soaps and candles we send. I've also had acupuncture here when my pain goes beyond what massage can help with. I also love that they rent the space out for small events at a reasonable price, and offer several classes. I haven't been to one yet...but one day I will!

The massages are great! The rooms are kept warm with tranquil music. The full body massage was very relaxing. The deep tissue massage really stimulated my muscles. The staff is very friendly. An overall positive experience!


Mar 05, 2024

Can't express in words how grateful I am to my massage therapist (Janie) who works in conjunction with the my doctors at the VA to find the root of my issues. Together they have helped me find relief and taught me the importance of self-care at the same time. I like this place so much, even had my brows done. Rhema gave me amazing results. Yes, I will return many more times! From check-in to check out the front staff are kind and patient.

L & A Healing is a marvelous studio. It is immaculate with wonderful ambience. It is an all inclusive, Spa environment! The artistically design interior filled with arts, crafts and exercise. Leo, Alex, Michelle everyone there is top-notch, and they extend themselves above and beyond. The Administrative Staff service is over the top.

We have been doing private couples Pilates with Alex for the last 6 months. Alex is an incredibly warm person and an awesome Pilates coach. He keeps the classes interesting while customizing them to our needs. In these 6 months, I have improved my overall flexibility, core strength and my posture. The L&A studio is a calm and cozy space. I find myself wanting to go earlier just to chill in the lounge area. I have also gotten a deep tissue massage with Leo, and it was incredible. We are lucky to have Alex, Leo and the L&A studio in the south loop and I strongly recommend everyone to experience the offerings here.


Mar 05, 2024

When I first went there was new to me and didn’t know what to expect, but man im glad I found out about L&A healing. My body has feel this good in year they do in amazing job. Proof is in your first visit try it out.

While walking the 🐶 I noticed a fragrance that reminded me of Southern California & decided to take a closer look. Mike & Jocelyn were such a delight to work with. I scheduled a acupuncture appt let’s see what the healing has in store!

Best massage I ever had. Terry was awesome, very informative and helpful. Asks great questions before and throughout to get to the root of the problem. Best massage experienced I’ve had yet.


Feb 05, 2024

Hidden gem in the south loop. Went for my first massage (with Michelle) and she convinced me to try acupuncture. I loved the massage so much, I gave it a try. Call me converted because it was a truly amazing experience. I highly recommend Michelle!!! I also met one of the owners (Alex).


Feb 05, 2024

L&A is such a lovely space. The most beautiful jewelry hand-made by the owner. Flowers, plants and the best smelling local candles. Great place to grab gifts! Also Pilates, fitness classes and spa services. Can’t say enough great things about this place and the lovely team of people here!!

Awesome quality service. Cantrell and Twaine were awesome!


Feb 05, 2023

Cantrell is an AMAZING acupuncturist!!!!!!She's very thorough, intentional and competent.


Feb 05, 2023

First time investing in anything like this for myself. Flor is so great and knowledgable. She took the time to calm my anxieties and explain everything. Have newfound respect for estheticians and their work! Flor will make you look good and feel good! Thank you.


Feb 05, 2023

Flor is amazing!! Her healing, nurturing energy makes you feel right at home. On top of that, she is highly knowledgeable when it comes to your skin and it’s needs. Highly recommend her for your waxing, massage, & facial needs!!


Feb 05, 2023

Flor is an amazing esthetician, extremely knowledgeable and provides high quality service tailored to your needs. I've had a 5 star experience every time I've seen her!


Feb 05, 2023

Flor was absolutely amazing! It was my first time getting waxed with the particular wax she uses. She was so attentive and answered all of my questions with grace. She made sure the experience wasn’t too painful with her pre-wax care ritual and also the after care. I am definitely booking with Flor again! ♥️


Feb 05, 2023

From first call (Alex) to ongoing massage and acupuncture care by Towayn.... Excellent experience. Highly recommended.


Feb 05, 2023

Horrible first experience. Me and my boyfriend had an appointment at 12 pm, thinking that it will be done simultaneously, like we were told. Therapist took in my boyfriend (without asking who wants to go in first) in and started working on him while he was working on some other patient in the other room and kept walking back and forth not even acknowledging me in the waiting room. He finally approached me at 12:55 when his other patient left, but I definitely did not have enough time for a session at that point. I waisted more than an hour at that place for nothing. It would be a different experience if someone had bothered to communicate, explain time issues or even acknowledge me in all that time. Disappointing treatment of a first time customer. Needless to say that I won’t be coming back. Response to the owner: Both of our appointments were at 12pm, no one EVER mentioned the second appointment being at 12:45. Even the therapist told my boyfriend that he will start working on me right after he sets him up but he was in fact working on a different client. Double booked obviously. Are you really continuing to be rude after you left a client wait for 54 minutes after scheduled time? And yes, I did have work after, what exactly is your point? I took time off for acupuncture appointment that never happened.


Feb 05, 2023

I had the best experience in this boutique today. I was walking by and noticed the lotus flower and one of the window shops as well as the plants. I walked in and really love the energy and the layout of the shop. There were so many different things to purchase into look at it really was exciting to be in there. The cashier, I’m so sorry I can’t remember his name, was very nice and even gave me a tour around the building. I purchased two pieces and plan to go back to get some more. I really enjoyed being in the shop.


Feb 05, 2023

Leo was amazing at his job! And he is so kind


Feb 05, 2023

Leonel is amazing! My lower back pain,is gone!! I will be back!


Feb 05, 2023

Ok practice but horrible professionalism. Booked concurrent appointsment for me and my partner, tight timeline. Confirmed on the phone. Confirmed at the shop. Confirmed with the acupuncturist. With no warning or mention left us waiting for an hour. Won’t be coming back. RESPONSE: Person on the phone confirmed they could see us at the concurrently at THAT time but have to do it different in the system. I confirmed with the desk when I arrived. I confirmed with the acupuncturist. I was talked to first and invited in, with the thrice confirmed understanding I would be immediately followed.

This place is amazing, for so many reasons! I have been going here for over two years after finding it in my neighborhood. Alex teaches amazing classes that I love, including Body Remix & floral arrangements. His unique handmade jewelry sold here is perfect for gifting (yourself or others), along with other bath/body/wellness products from sellers I'd never learn about otherwise. Leo is an incredible massage therapist, he always finds trigger points I didn't know I had. If you love dancing, you *must* take a class with Dill - we are lucky to have her in the South Loop! Towayn is a knowledgeable acupuncturist who asks the best questions to determine treatment. I recently had my least painful wax session with the skilled & soothing Flor, who also provides esthetic services. Highly recommend, there is something for everyone in this inclusive space!
